I have a customer that is currently manufacturing an enclosure our or Galvannel. This unit is welded and they are not currently painting over the welded areas. This will cause corrosion over time. > > I am suggesting that they go to a zinc plated cold rolled steel for a better finish, and also our buying power is suited for steel. > > My customer has already gone through their EMI Testing and is hesitant to change to zinc plated cold rolled steel because they do not know the difference in conductivity between the two materials. > > I have done a ohms test on the two materials. Both testing at .3 to .4 ohms. > > Can you direct me to a source to get more information on the conductivity of the two metal finishes? Or give me more direction as to how to address this issue? > > Any information is greatly appreciated.
