The UK’s widest bath at Joseph Ash Telford

When it comes to looking for the perfect galvanizing service provider, bath size matters for making sure your fabrication can be properly submerged and protected from corrosion.

Joseph Ash Telford is home to the UK’s widest galvanizing bath, with a dipping capacity of two metres wide, able to dip many types of fabrication that may otherwise not be possible to dip.

Benefits of a wider galvanizing bath

There are numerous reasons why a wider galvanizing bath can be beneficial for protecting your fabrications from corrosion.

Increased capacity

A wider galvanizing bath can handle larger and more complex items, reducing the need to cut them, saving you both time and money. We can also process more of your items at once, reducing the overall turnaround time for projects, allowing us to meet tighter deadlines so you get your projects back to you or their end destination quicker.

Better coating quality

A wider bath allows the molten zinc to flow more freely over all surfaces, both internal and external, of the metal. This ensures consistency with the coating’s thickness and quality. This is particularly important for complex items, where getting complete coverage on all surfaces can be difficult.

Cost savings

By being able to process larger items in a single bath, we can save you money on energy, labour, and maintenance, helping you reduce your expenses overall.

The bath’s dipping dimensions are also 7.3 metres long and 3.1 metres deep, with a volume capacity of 5 tonnes. These dimensions make it capable of containing almost any large metal fabrication.
