What Are Galvanized Steel Pipes?

1 min read

Galvanized steel pipes are made by coating steel pipes with a layer of zinc, known as galvanization. This process protects them from corrosion and rust, significantly extending their lifespan and durability in plumbing applications. The zinc acts as a sacrificial layer, corroding before the steel to prevent damage to the pipe itself and ultimately extending the piping system’s lifespan. 

Our plumbers at A&E Plumbing see these pipes a lot in homes and buildings built before the 1960s, but many homes are switching to other modern plumbing solutions such as copper and plastic.
