Here are some of the standard measures in terms of microns,
- For a < 1.5mm thick steel, 45 microns of hot dip galvanizing shall be required.
- For 1.5mm - 3 mm thick steel, 55 microns of hot dip galvanizing shall be required.
- For 3mm – 6 mm thick steel, 70 microns of hot dip galvanizing shall be required.
- For a 6 mm thick steel, 85 microns of hot dip galvanizing shall be required.
- Additionally, the area and weather conditions play a major role in deciding the type of galvanized steel required.
