Electro-Galvanizing (EG)
EG cable bracket Process Overview: Electroplating deposits a thin, uniform layer of zinc onto steel surfaces
through an electrochemical process using direct current in an electrolyte solution.
EG cable tray Process Flow:
1. Pre-Treatment: Alkaline cleaning and acid pickling
2. Activation: Strike plating for uniform adhesion
3. Electroplating: Zinc deposition in electrolyte bath (typically 8-25 microns)
4. Post-Treatment: Chromate conversion coating
5. Final Rinse: DI water rinse and drying
EG cable bridge Advantages:
· Precise Thickness Control: Uniform coating thickness (5-25 microns)
· Excellent Appearance: Bright, smooth finish suitable for decorative applications
· Cost-Effective: Lower initial cost compared to hot-dip galvanizing
· Complex Geometries: Suitable for intricate shapes and assemblies
· Weldability: Thin coating allows for post-coating welding
EG cable bracket Disadvantages:
· Limited Durability: 5-15 years protection depending on environment
· Thickness Limitations: Thinner coating provides less protection
· Environmental Sensitivity: Performance varies significantly with exposure conditions
· Edge Protection: Limited protection at cut edges and welds
EG cable tray Applications & Service Life:
· Indoor installations with controlled environments : 10-20 years
· Light-duty commercial applications: 8-15 years
· Office buildings and retail spaces: 12-18 years
· Warehouses and distribution centers: 10-16 years · Cost-sensitive projects with shorter service life requirements : 8-12 year
· Components requiring post-coating fabrication : 10-15 years
· HVAC applications in dry environments: 12-20 years
