Quoting pagliaccio: Quoting libralady: Quoting pagliaccio: galvanneal - to coat steel surface with zinc-iron alloy (çelik yüzeyini demir-çinko alaşımıyla kaplama)  |
English word is "galvanise"  |
Ah, wait! You mean "galvanneal" isn't an english word? 
Actually when I learned its meaning, I exactly remember "galvanise" as well. But then thought they might be synonymous. |
Not one that I have heard of but then I am not in the steel industry - I will check for you later.

It is not an English term but an American term meaning "to galvanise something" It has been galvanealed! In England we just say "galvanised"
