Frequently Asked Questions

On the surface, they might look the same because they are both coated with the same Beckers paint systems. But it’s what’s underneath that counts! Galvalume is made from bare steel covered with a mixture of zinc, aluminum, and trace amounts of silicon to improve its long-term weathering capabilities. Galvanized steel is made by passing bare steel through a bath of molten zinc at 842º F. The zinc coating that gives the steel sheet its resistance to weathering and rust, offers better cathodic or sacrificial protection for scratches and cut edges. At Legacy Metals, we only use galvanized substrates, not galvalume!

Important: Galvanized steel is known to resist ammonia better than galvalume. That is why we only use Galvanized steel in the presence of vapors from animal confinement. Also, all our trims are made with galvanized 28 gauge metal.
