Summary for abrasion resistance of zinc plating Discussion
Abrasion resistance of zinc plating vs. powder coating is the core question here: K. Umesh asks whether zinc or zinc-alloy plating can replace powder coating and which finish has better wear resistance and deposit structure. The excerpt provided contains only the question and no visible replies, so there is no thread-based conclusion to compare the two finishes or explain the reasons behind any difference. Based on the source shown, the page is simply a request for guidance from a plating shop in Pune, India, rather than a resolved technical discussion. Because no answer text is included, any claim about which coating is more abrasion resistant would be unsupported by the available thread excerpt.
Q. Hello,
I want to know the difference in abrasion resistance between powder coating & Zinc Plating. We want to replace powder coating with Zinc/zinc alloy Plating but we don’t know which deposit has the better abrasion resistance & better deposition structure, and reasons behind it.
