CENTENNIAL, CO - The American Galvanizers Association (AGA) will host a “Galvanize It! Duplex Systems" webinar on Wednesday, October 17, 2018 at 1 p.m. ET.

The one-hour "Galvanize It! Duplex Systems" webinar provides an overview about hot-dip galvanized steel and the synergistic benefits when coated with a paint or powder coating on top. Webinar content includes an overview of hot-dip galvanizing and duplex systems as well as the benefits of duplex systems, specifying duplex systems, and preparing the HDG surface. This webinar will help specifiers understand the hot-dip galvanizing process and coating benefits, identify the benefits of utilizing paint/powder coating with hot-dip galvanizing in a duplex system, recognize the importance of communication and clear assignments of responsibility for a successful outcome, and differentiate between HDG surface conditions in order to properly prepare the zinc coating for a duplex system.

About  American Galvanizers Association

The American Galvanizers Association (AGA) is a not-for-profit trade association dedicated to serving the needs of specifiers, architects, engineers, contractors, fabricators, and after-fabrication hot-dip galvanizers throughout North America. Since 1933, the AGA has provided information on the most innovative applications and state-of-the-art technological developments in hot-dip galvanizing for corrosion control. The AGA maintains a large technical library, provides multimedia seminars, and offers a technical support line to assist specifiers. It also provides a number of services to galvanizers and zinc producers in the industry, including serving as a process technology research and information resource, liaison to environmental and safety regulatory authorities, and an active member of committees within specification, corrosion, and government transportation and infrastructure agencies.
