Hot-Dip Galvanized A heavy coating is produced by immersion in molten zinc. The zinc provides dual protection by serving as both a barrier coating and a sacrificial coating. Tree Island Steel hot-dip galvanized nails exceed ASTM A153 Class D specifications. Hot-dip galvanized nails are recommended for use where high corrosion resistance is required such as outdoor exposure and for use with pressure treated wood (ACQ).

ZINCGARD HOT-DIPPED GALVANIZING Some companies cut corners when it comes to corrosion protection by manufacturing nails from hot-dipped galvanized wire, painting damaged heads and points with zinc paint, or even using a different coating altogether. Tree Island Steel ZincGard® nails meet or exceed all ASTM A153 standards and are compliant to building code requirements in the US and Canada, ensuring you get the quality and product life you expect from a genuine hotdipped galvanized nail. In fact, we even go above when it comes to corrosion protection. Tree Island Steel ZincGard® nails have one of the thickest and most uniform hot-dipped coatings in the market. Tests show that this can provide upwards of 20 more years of service life than a standard galvanized coating.
