Description
RotoMetals Regalv galvanizing repair stick restores corrosion-resistant zinc-like finish on galvanized plates, shapes, pipe, rods, sheets, etc.
after welding, cutting, abrasion or other damages to face or edges. Regalv coats burnt galvanizing, coats the weld, and prevents rust.
Use on a hot surface like a crayon, coats easily and permanently.
Each bar measures approximately 13.5" long x .75" wide x .25" - .375" thick.
**SOLD BY THE POUND. Each bar varies in weight and can weigh about ~ .8 to 1.3 pound each.
So if you order a quantity of 10, it is possible that you can receive 7 to 13 bars to equal the total
quantity of pounds ordered. It is also possible that you can receive less bars then the quantity
ordered, but the total weight will be at least the total quantity ordered.
Regalv is a alloy of Zinc, Lead and Tin.
1 bar of Regalv cover approximately 1 square foot. It can vary depending on skill level of the person applying.

HOW TO
ReGalv Galvanizing repair stick restores corrosion resistant zinc-Like finish on galvanized plated, shape, pipe, rod, sheets, etc.
After welding, cutting, abrasion or other damage to face or edges
On Galvanized Iron ReGalv is indispensable.
On Black Iron, Regalv prevents formation of rust pockets in the weld or on other surfaces requiring rustproofing before painting.
On Rusted Iron, ReGalv re-coats, adheres, and inhibits further rusting.
Re-coats burnt galvanizing also coast the weld and prevents rust
Rubs on a hot surface like crayon
Regalv conforms to federal specifications O-G-93 and QQM-151
Directions for using ReGalv
While the wild ot cut is still hot, or after reheating, break off any salg, brush off loose scale or loose rust,
and rub the Regalv rod on the hot surface until a small amount flows.
Spread wirh a wirte brush to band it to the base metal. Flux Is NOT required.
Regalv is self-fluxing. It is not necessary nor desirable to direct the torch onto the regalv rod.
Lower temperature
When the surface to be coated is just hot enough to melts Regalv readily, temperature is proper.
Regalv flows, spreads, and adheres readily below 600°F. This low temperature allows the user to weld or cut more steel before stopping to apply Regalv.
Excessive temperature would promptly be signalled if Regalv:(a)Melts off the rod faster than it can be spread;(b)brushes off when molten,
instead of sticking firmly to the surface; (c) zinc color changes to other hues, requiring a second swiping with wire brush when cooler.
However, tolerable temperature range is quite broad as will be apparent after a brief trail.
ReGalv, a product of modern metallurgy, goes on faster smoother, with a firmer bond, and surpasses original galvanized surfaces in corrosion resistance.
Regalv is a true metal coating (not a paint), and does not age to a whitish powdery appearance.
It tends to darken slightly when weathered, and maintains its true metallic hue.
Regalv is non-brittle. It does not break into short lengths in shipment or handling, and doesn’t hot-crumble and get wasted in use.
Whatever welds, cuts, burns, abrasions, or rust spots require patches or repairs to damaged galvanizing or rust-proofing of black iron prior to painting.
Users: Practically everyone who welds or flame-cuts has use for Regalv.
