Generally _____________ are subjected to galvanising (i.e., zinc coating)?

Correct answer: C. Low carbon steels

  • A. Non-ferrous metals
  • B. Non-metals
  • C. Low carbon steels
  • D. Stainless steel

Explanation

Low-carbon steel sheets are commonly galvanised because zinc protects the exposed steel both as a barrier and through sacrificial action. Stainless steel already has corrosion resistance, while non-ferrous metals do not require zinc coating for this purpose.
