Forming galvanized parts.
Forming galvanized parts.
(OP)
Dear all,
I am stamping some galvanized carbon steel plates. Usually the galvanizing was after the stamping but I got a batch to try out. Do you expect any problems with forming or a deterioration of the coating?
I have heard that hot dip galvanizing is a metallic coating so it shouldn't chip off.
Any comments?

RE: Forming galvanized parts.
Yes, cut edges are exposed (unprotected) if you are stamping parts and possible delamination in heavily formed parts.
If you are concerned why ask here, why not subject them to corrosion testing?
