Annex A
(normative)
Test methods for checking the zinc coating
A.1
A.1.1
General
It shall be permissible to use either of two methods to determine the zinc mass per unit area:
the magnetic coating thickness measurement method, which is a non-destructive method and is
frequently easier to use.
In case of dispute, the only valid results shall be those obtained by the chemical dissolution method.
A.1.2
A.1.2.1
Principle
The zinc mass deposited on a sample with a given area shall be determined by taking the difference between
the mass of the coated sample and the mass of the sample after dissolution of the zinc in a solution of
hydrochloric acid and hexamethylentetramina.
A.1.2.2
Sample
A sample of length given in Table A.1 shall be used. Both ends of the sample shall be cut before testing in
order to avoid galvanized faces.

M is the numerical value of the mass of the test piece after dissolution of the coating, expressed in grams
(g).
A.1.2.3
3,6 g of hexamethylentetramina have to be dissolved into 500 ml of hydrochloric acid (density 1,19 g/l) and
then diluted up to 1000 ml with distilled water.
A.1.2.4
Apparatus
The balance for determining the mass of samples shall have a precision at least equal to 1 % of the assumed
mass of the coating.
A.1.2.5
Procedure
Dip the sample in the hydrochloric acid-antimony chloride solution. The solution volume shall be at least 1
ml per square centimeter of the sample surface area.
Leave the sample immersed in the solution until the release of hydrogen stops, or until only a few bubbles
o
are released. The solution temperature shall not exceed 38 C.
After attack, the sample is washed, brushed under running water, wiped with a cloth and then dried.
Determine the mass of the sample again; its mass after dissolution is denoted M.
A.1.3
A.1.3.1
Magnetic method
General
The measurement of the coating thickness by magnetic method shall be carried out according to the general
requirements of EN ISO 2178.
A.1.3.2
No special type of instrument is recommended. It is essential to ensure that all instruments are in good
working condition and produce reproducible results by carrying out systematic calibrations with standard
sheets of thicknesses similar to those to be measured, even if the instrument readout is graduated in
micrometres according to EN ISO 2178.
This calibration shall be carried out using standard sheets placed on the uncoated base metal of the lot to be
inspected.
In order to plot a calibration curve (Figure A.1), at least three measurements of known thicknesses e1, e2, and
e3 are made on standard sheets using the instrument covering the range of thicknesses to be measured.
Obtain the corresponding readouts L1, L2, and L3, and plot the calibration curve T.
A thickness e is then obtained corresponding to each readout L of the instrument, as shown in Figure A. 1.

A.1.3.3
Procedure
A minimum of 12 judiciously distributed measurements shall be carried out on each individual sample.
lt is assumed that the distribution of measurement points is judicious if these measurement points are
distributed in practically equal numbers for each series of ribs, at the summit of ribs and in the area between
ribs (see Figure A.2).

Interpretation of results
2
The zinc mass per unit area expressed in grams per square metres (g/m ) is equal to the product of the
arithmetic mean of the measured thickness expressed in micrometres (m) multiplied by 7,14.
A.1.4
The coating continuity is checked using the test method described in A.1.3, respecting the procedure
described in A.1.3.3.
