MegaZinc®
What is MegaZinc®?
MegaZinc® is a specialized zinc plated process with various different post plating treatments which allow for extreme corrosion, abrasion and wear resistence.
This process is a development from Team Plating Works with the idea of offering the best product you can get from Zinc

Why MegaZinc® electroplating?
MegaZinc® was established with the goal of creating the most superior zinc coating you could obtain within functional perametres using the electroplating process.
It was developed for clients who are in need of an inexpensive, highly functional results that would ensure reduced maintinance costs for the end user by providing a superior, anti-corrosion protection without affecting parametres such as bolt threads, fitting edges etc.
Due to the meticulious process of MegaZinc®, you can expect your plated works to withstand extreme environments for an extended period of time, making MegaZinc® one of our best Zinc processes on offer.
MegaZinc® was established in 2015 and has since grown into one of our most sort after processes for high performance fasteners.

Benefits of MegaZinc®…
The main benefit of MegaZinc® is its superior corrosion resistance
MegaZinc®offers…
- Extremely robust zinc layer
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Excellent wear resistance
- Is far superior to normal Zinc Elcetroplating
MegaZinc® offers an alternative to regular Zinc electroplating in the sense that it is plated to our 3 class spec: A, B and C.
Depending on the class of MegaZinc® required, the deposition of Zinc varies from
10 – 30 microns in thickness.
