Anchor Bolt Source: Anchor Bolts and the Importance of Galvanizing

July 20, 2012 1:54 pm

Anchor bolts that are galvanized provide excellent resistance to corrosion as well as long term structural integrity in humid or coastal climates.  The galvanizing process for anchor bolts involves total immersion of the anchor bolts into cleaning solutions and molten zinc.  All interior surfaces of the nuts as well as the exterior surfaces of the anchor bolts are coated.  This includes the inside threads of nuts and the threads on anchor bolts, since corrosion tends to occur on the inside threads of nuts where there can be increased humidity and condensation can occur.  Anchor bolts with no protection on the threads are more likely to corrode.  Corroded anchor bolts can lead to concerns of the integrity of the structural connection.
