Forge Fix Zinc Plated Screw Eyes
- Forge Fix 10SE6514, These Forgefix Screw Eyes are Zinc Plated for increased resistance to corrosion. They simply screw directly into timber & similar materials. Drilling a pilot hole is advisable. The screws are also suitable for use with all types of wall plugs. Screw Eyes are used to attach cables, wires & twine to numerous applications. Zinc coatings prevent oxidation of the protected metal to create a longer lasting finish. It does this by forming a barrier & by acting as a sacrificial anode if this barrier is damaged. Zinc oxide is a fine white dust that (in contrast to iron oxide) does not trigger a breakdown of the substrate’s surface integrity as it is formed. The zinc oxide, if left intact, can act as a barrier to further oxidation, in a way similar to the protection afforded to aluminium & stainless steels by their oxide layers.
