What’s the difference between galvanized and hot-dipped steel?
The majority of Behrens products are made of Galvanized Sheet Steel:
- Bright-Shiny appearance-preferred wherever appearance is important
- Resist the elements-won’t oxidize
- Made in the US
Other materials
Behrens also offers select steel products in Hot Dipped Zinc:
- Seen as slightly more durable
- Will oxidize; a look acceptable and traditional in farm/ag products
- Behrens pails and round tubs available in both galvanized and hot dipped
- All oval tubs and watering cans are hot dipped
