Short answer: Zinc plating (electroplated zinc) deposits a thin, uniform, sacrificial zinc layer onto steel for corrosion protection, with alloy options such as zinc-nickel and zinc-iron for higher performance on high-strength and painted parts. Applied from acid, alkaline or cyanide-free baths and sealed with chromate or trivalent passivation, it is the workhorse coating for fasteners, brackets, stampings and automotive components where a precise, conductive, paintable finish is required.
