Don’t take chances – choose then services of expert galvanizers
The manufacturing and construction processes requiring steel as part of the structure are numerous. This metal has proven to be a highly versatile material, one that is relatively easy to forge, but also very tough and durable. One of its disadvantages, however, is its reaction to oxygen over time. This causes rust which leads to the complete deterioration of this metal. Fortunately there are ways to work around this. By galvanizing the steel you can cover it in a protective layer that will help preserve it for a much longer time. While the principle is easy to understand, the process itself is rather specialised and expertise and profession al equipment is required in order to ensure that the process is of high enough quality to adhere to prescribed safety regulations. With numerous awards under their belt and a solid reputation in the industry, Armco Galvanizers certainly fit this bill.
Armco Galvanizers is the galvanizing department of Armco Superlite (Pty) Ltd, and has been in operation since 1989 in Isando. This plant started up with a 7.5 metre long galvanizing kettle, and from the outset their goal has been simple – to provide their customers with top quality galvanizing on time and at competitive prices. In 1996 then plant was upgraded to accommodate a 13.2 metre long kettle, enabling them to galvanize heavy steel structures and increasing their average output to 2 000 tons per month. In the same year they have also acquired a second galvanizing facility in the Boksburg area with two production lines running. This plant is geared up to handle centrifugal and jobbing work efficiently, and also specialises in difficult to handle small cast iron components.
Armco Galvanizers have also been careful to act responsibly towards the environment, installing a white fume filtration and extraction system to filter smoke generated by the galvanizing process. This conforms to stringent EC standards. With three production lines to ensure flexibility to meet customer delivery requirements and a high level of expertise, a quick turnaround time is assured.
