Mild Steel Angle Galvanised is an angle shaped galvanised Mild Steel.
Hot-dip galvanising is the process of coating iron or steel with a thin zinc layer, by passing the steel through a molten bath of zinc at a temperature of around 860 °F (460 °C). When exposed to the atmosphere, pure zinc reacts with oxygen to form zinc oxide, which further reacts with carbon dioxide to form zinc carbonate, a dull grey, fairly strong material that stops further corrosion in many circumstances, protecting the steel below from the elements.
Galvanised steel is widely used in applications where rust resistance is needed, and can be identified by the crystallization patterning on the surface (often called a “spangle”).

Additional Information
Black Mild Steel Pipe is a commercial-quality tubular pipe made from black mild steel, known for its strength, durability, and versatility. This type of pipe is produced by forming steel billets into sheet metal, then passing the sheets through rollers while the steel is above its recrystallisation temperature to achieve the desired dimensions. Multiple passes through the rollers may be required for precision sizing. The resulting “black” finish comes from the oxidation layer formed during this process, giving the steel its characteristic dark appearance.
At Buy Metal Online, we offer high-quality black mild steel pipes in various sizes to suit your needs.
Key Qualities of Black Mild Steel Pipe
Black mild steel pipes are valued across many industries for their excellent mechanical properties, adaptability, and cost-effectiveness. While carbon steel products such as black mild steel pipes can rust when exposed to the elements, they can easily be primed, painted, or treated to improve their corrosion resistance, making them suitable for a wide range of applications.
