Galvanizing Process of Scaffolding Walk Boards

Scaffolding walk boards are generally used for manual passage and material transportation on scaffolding. The use of high-quality scaffolding walk boards can ensure the stability of the scaffolding and the safety of the staff. The scaffolding walk boards produced by EK Scaffolding are made of cold-processed steel, and the service life can reach about 8 years through galvanizing technology. The galvanized scaffolding walk boards we produce also have a variety of specifications and sizes to meet the needs of various construction sites.

Galvanizing process of scaffolding walk boards

The scaffolding walk boards need to be cleaned and rusted before galvanizing to ensure that there are no impurities such as oil, rust, etc. on the surface of the scaffolding walk boards. After the surface is cleaned, the scaffolding walk boards are heated to a certain temperature and then immersed in a galvanizing solution. The temperature of this galvanizing solution is usually around 450 degrees. After the galvanizing is completed, the scaffolding walk boards need to be cooled. At this time, the zinc layer will gradually solidify to form a solid protective film. The galvanized layer will be inspected before leaving the factory, and the surface and thickness of the galvanized layer must meet the standards. The zinc layer of scaffolding walk boards is strong and wear-resistant, and can also prevent scaffolding walk boards from oxidation, which can effectively prevent scaffolding walk boards from rusting and damage.

Use of scaffolding walk boards

Before use, it is necessary to check whether the galvanized layer of scaffolding walk boards is damaged or peeling. During use, it is also necessary to regularly check the zinc layer of scaffolding walk boards, and promptly remove dirt, oil and other substances that are easily corroded on the surface of scaffolding walk boards. If there is rust, peeling or other damage, it needs to be repaired in time. When not in use, scaffolding walk boards need to be stored in a dry and ventilated place to avoid long-term exposure to a humid environment. Scaffolding walk boards need to avoid severe impact during transportation or use to prevent damage to the galvanized layer. In addition, pay attention to the load-bearing capacity of scaffolding walk boards and do not overload.

Scaffolding walk boards are important tools in scaffolding systems. Scaffolding walk boards are durable and stable, have strong load-bearing capacity, are corrosion-resistant, non-slip and fire-resistant, are light in weight, and are easy to assemble and disassemble. The punching holes on scaffolding walk boards can prevent workers from slipping, making it convenient for workers to walk on high-rise buildings and improving safety.
