Galvanized duct offers one of the most affordable ways to protect metals when compared to other protective coatings for steel. Galvanizing is a process in which zinc or another metal coating is applied to a dense base black metal giving it anti-corrosion properties that protect it from corrosion and surrounding environment elements. When ducwork material is galvanized it is directly protected from exposure to the elements and will not become oxidized or corroded.
Galvanized ducting products are not only shielded from environments, but also from water and moisture that can corrode underneath. In the event that the zinc coating is scratched deep enough and your steel ducting becomes exposed it may begin corroding.
Because Nordfab Quick-Fit® galvanized pipes consist of resilient materials nearly all outdoor applications prefer them over other plastic pipes like PVC or ABS. Not only is galvanized ducting ideal for outside applications, they also excel in operations that produce wood, lead and cement dust, vehicle, paint booth and coffee roaster exhaust, welding fume, and are utilized to manage overall dust extraction.
Nordfab manufacturers galvanized ductwork to provide commercial and industrial installers and designers a reliable, secure and effective way to apply and relocate ductwork. By implementing a Nordfab ducting system, industry experts no longer have to worry about caulking which saves them almost 50% of installation time. Nordfab galvanized duct products are laser, leak-tight welded systems that ensure ductwork is air tight. Galvanized ductwork by Nordfab dispose sof areas where bugs can harbor, removes snagging areas that damage leak-free structures, and is adaptable to already installed duct systems.

Benefits of Using Galvanized Steel in Ductwork
✓ Heavy-duty coating: Galvanized steel duct has a coating that is made up of a special metallic structure to resist mechanical damage
✓ Cost efficient: Galvanized ductwork is the most cost-friendly and is standard for most applications because it lasts longer and requires less maintenance
✓ Long lasting: Galvanized coating is generally expected to last up to 50 years in most rural environments and 25+ in urban and coastal areas
✓ Total protection: The entire line of Nordfab galvanized products is completely protected from corrosion, rust, water and moisture damage, even in inaccessible areas
