Galvanized Steel Grating
Galvanized grating, also called galvanized steel grating or galvanized steel bar grating, refers to the steel bar grating made of mild carbon steel through hot dipped galvanized surface treatment.
Mild carbon steel provides an economical, high strength for uses in most industrial and commercial applications. And hot dipped galvanized surface treatment supplies excellent corrosion resistance performance for durability.
Steel grating is available in various material, such as stainless steel, aluminum, and galvanized steel.
Hot DIP galvanized steel grating has three kinds of steel gratings, they are Plain Style Steel Grating, Serrated Style Steel Grating and I Bar Type Steel Grating. They are widely used in steel structure platforms, stair treads, sidewalks, drainages and well covers etc. GNEE can design and manufacture standard steel grating and in customized shapes per client's requirements.
Galvanized steel grating has strong impact resistance, strong corrosion resistance and heavy load-bearing capacity, beautiful and elegant, and has superior performance in municipal roadbed and steel platform construction projects. The extremely high cost performance is the reason why galvanized steel grating is widely used in the paving projects of new and old roadbed gutter roads.

Our Hot Selling Galvanized Steel Grating
Press-locked Galvanized steel grating
Press-locked Galvanized steel grating is made of low carbon steel and stainless steel. It is a grid formed by press-locking cross bars to bearing bars.
Welded Galvanized steel grating
Welded Galvanized steel grating is made of low carbon steel or stainless steel. It is widely used in construction, petroleum, food processing plants and other industries.
Hot-dipped Galvanized steel grating
Hot-dip galvanized steel gratings are used in many industries including chemical plants, food processing facilities, water treatment plants and power stations.

tep 1: Pre-Treatment:
The surface of the steel gratings cleans the shot blasting or degreasing to remove rust, paint, oil, and other contaminants. Galvanized steel grating is placed in an acid bath to remove the mill scale. By using this process, a zinc-iron alloy forms on the surface of the gratings. Zinc-iron alloy has a lower melting point than steel, which is a barrier to prevent iron rusting.
Step 2:Pickling:
The purpose of pickling is to remove the oxide layer on the surface of the galvanized steel grating. This is done by immersing the gratings in an acid bath. The most commonly used acid for pickling is hydrochloric acid. Because hydrochloric acid helps to remove the oxide layer quickly, it is also known as a "pickling agent."
Step 3:Fluxing:
Fluxing is a process that helps to remove impurities from the surface of the galvanized steel grating. The impurities are removed by passing a current through the gratings in an acidic solution. The most commonly used flux is zinc chloride. Zinc chloride provides a barrier against corrosion and helps to remove impurities quickly. For this cause, it is also known as a "fluxing agent".
Step 4:Hot-Dip Galvanizing:
Hot-dip galvanizing is a method in which the gratings are dipped in a molten zinc bath. By using molten zinc bath in galvanized steel grating process, a zinc-iron alloy is formed on the surface of the gratings. That's why hot-dip galvanizing is also known as "zinc-iron alloying." Also, hot-dip galvanizing provides a barrier against corrosion.
Step 5:Cooling:
After hot-dip galvanizing, the gratings are cooled in air or water. The cooling process helps to solidify the zinc-iron alloy on the surface of the gratings. Galvanized steel grating that has been cooled in air is known as "air-cooled" grating. And galvanized steel grating that has been cooled in water is known as "water-cooled" grating.
Step 6:Passivation:
Passivation is the only process flow of galvanized steel grating that is not performed in all cases. Passivation is a process in which the gratings are dipped in an acidic solution. To achieve this process, the gratings must be made of stainless steel. The primary objective of passivation is to eliminate contaminants from the exterior of the gratings.
Step 7:Packaging(1 days)
To ensure that the products are not damaged during transport, we use high-quality packing materials.the packing of steel gratings requires special care and attention. Be sure to wrap each grate in a layer of plastic film, place them in a box or crate, and fill the gaps between the grates with packing material such as styrofoam peanuts or bubble wrap. Seal the box or crate with tape and label it with the contents and the date. These packing tips will help to ensure that your steel grates are protected from rust and corrosion during storage or transportation.
