Product Details
Galmet ColdGal is a zinc rich coating (paint) which provides long term protection of steel. Galmet ColdGal contains 98.5% pure zinc and over 92% metallic zinc in the dry film.
When scratched, Galmet ColdGal produces a self- healing mechanism which effectively reseals the scratched surface. Metallic zinc coatings are universally accepted as the best method of rust prevention. Galmet ColdGal offers this protection combined with ease of preparation and application.
Whilst Steel Fabrication, Utilities, Agricultural and the Oil and Gas industries all look to gain considerably by protecting the metal used, it is Mining and MRO which look to benefit most due to the self-healing mechanism of Galmet ColdGal which reseals a scratched treated surface.
How does Galmet ColdGal work?
Galmet ColdGal works in three ways:
It provides a sacrificial metal to actively protect steel by Cathodic Protection.
It provides a mechanically resilient coating.
Provides a water-resistant film.
Galmet ColdGal provides Cathodic Protection through a protective layer of electrochemical cells which is applied to the metal surface. This is provided by the “more active” metal, zinc.
When electrochemical oxidation occurs, the environmental elements react with the zinc metal instead of the steel metal beneath resulting in an alternative reaction that prevents the steel corroding and the development of rust.
The action also prevents rust from developing under Galmet ColdGal. It also produces a self-healing mechanism in instances where Galmet ColdGal has been scratched. Zinc oxides and carbonates form and effectively reseal the scratch providing longer asset protection and durability.
Features & Use:
High purity zinc
Fast dry, excellent adhesion and easy to apply
Tough and flexible
Long term protection of steel
Available in both an easy-to-use aerosol or bulk 4L option
Galmet ColdGal will benefit industries where quality and long-term protection matter. This includes:
Manufacturing, from large to small
Steel Fabrication
Mining
Utilities
Any MRO applications to protect steel
Agriculture
Oil and Gas

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Galmet ColdGal?
Galmet ColdGal is single-component zinc rich coating with over 92% (weight) zinc metal in the dry film. With over 98.5% purity.
What is the difference between Duragal and Cold Gal ?
Galmet DuraGal
Galmet DuraGal is a quick drying, bright silver coloured, aluminium rich protective coating (paint).
The high aluminium content in Galmet DuraGal provides a superior barrier to moisture and other corrosive agents compared to conventional bright silver paints.
Galmet Cold Gal
Galmet ColdGal is a zinc rich coating (paint) which provides long term protection of steel. Galmet ColdGal contains 98.5% pure zinc and over 92% metallic zinc in the dry film.
Metallic zinc coatings are universally accepted as the best method of rust prevention.
Galmet ColdGal offers this protection combined with ease of preparation and application.
Can a top coat be applied on top of Galmet Cold Gal;?
Yes, but only some are suitable. Never put an enamel paint directly onto ColdGal without using a Galvanized Iron Primer or an Etch Primer First, both are available in the Galmet product range.
