Galvanising metal is a term used to describe ZINC, which is a chemical element with the symbol Zn and atomic number 30. It is a bluish-white, lustrous metal that is brittle at room temperature but malleable when heated. ZINC is often used in galvanizing, a process of coating iron or steel with a layer of ZINC to protect it from corrosion. This process is widely used in the construction industry, as well as for automotive and marine applications.
