To coat a metal surface with zinc or another metal using an electrical plating process to prevent rust.
From electro- + galvanize. This verb emerged as electroplating technology matured in the late 19th century, offering more precise control than traditional galvanizing methods.
Unlike traditional galvanizing which dunks items in molten zinc, electrogalvanizing lets technicians control the exact thickness of the coating, so you get perfect results on delicate or complex shapes.
