Zinc Electroplating is not a very durable/useful coating.Its thk is also around 15 microns only.Better ones are Cadmium Plating,Hot Dip galvanizing and Barium carbonate coating.

Body Studs & Nuts (21000 Series): A193 Gr.B7 / A194 Gr.2H zincplated
(without chromated)
Body Studs & Nuts (35002 Series): A193 Gr.B8 CL.1 / A194 Gr.8
Gland Studs & Nuts : A193 Gr.B8 CL.1 / A194 Gr.8so my dout is in humid areas like Japan we need the bolts to beZincplated/bichromated to prevent white rust and in hot areas likeQatar its not required.Please confirm my understanding,(As the specs were basically developed by JGC they specified aszinc plated/bichromated)Ohm-SrinivasSr. Piping Engg.
