Zinc Electroplating is Applied: Zinc electroplating is a
method of depositing zinc metal on the surface of another metal, such as steel, by immersing the fasteners
in an appropriate plating bath and applying electrical current. Zinc travels through the electrolytic bath from
the zinc anodes and attaches to the surface of the fastener. The thickness of zinc plating depends on the
time spent in the plating bath, the amount of current, and the chemical composition of the bath.
