FH® Sink Rolls are critical components installed in hot dip galvanizing (HDG) lines to guide and support steel strips through the molten zinc bath.
Designed for continuous galvanizing production, our zinc pot rolls provide excellent corrosion resistance, dimensional stability, and long service life under extreme molten zinc environments.
With advanced alloy manufacturing technology, FH® supplies customized sink rolls for global steel processing companies.
A sink roll (also called zinc pot roll) is a submerged roll located inside the zinc pot of a hot dip galvanizing line.
During the galvanizing process, the steel strip passes through molten zinc at approximately 450°C. The sink roll guides the strip downward and maintains stable movement through the zinc bath.
The performance of the sink roll directly affects:
🟧 How Does a Sink Roll Work?
The working process:
1. Steel Strip Entry
The steel strip enters the zinc pot and moves into the molten zinc bath.
2. Strip Direction Control
The sink roll changes the strip direction and guides it through the bottom section of the zinc bath.
3. Continuous Rotation
The roll rotates continuously under high temperature and corrosive molten zinc conditions.
4. Stable Strip Movement
The strip exits the zinc bath with uniform coating thickness and improved surface quality.
