What is yellow zinc plating?

Zinc plating is primarily used to protect metals from corrosion effects. Zinc coatings prevent corrosion of protected metal by forming a physical barrier and acting as a sacrificial anode - even when this barrier is damaged. Zinc plating is perfect for all internal application where high amounts of corrosion are not expected. Zinc plated screws are also the most economical fasteners to manufacture and are generally the most popular. A key point is that there is no corrosion differences between bright zinc and yellow zinc plating, it is purely a cosmetic difference
