STARBLAZE GI PLUS
StarBlaze GI PLUS is a specially designed very low silicon welding electrode developed for the fabrication, maintenance, and repair of galvanizing baths. The deposited weld metal is almost pure iron, providing excellent resistance to corrosion caused by molten zinc. It is ideally suited for rebuilding worn-out galvanizing bath surfaces and extending the service life of galvanizing equipment exposed to continuous molten zinc attack.
