When using SMAW ("stick") welding, galvanized steel can be welded in the same manner as uncoated steel. ... The thicker the zinc coating, the more fumes are generated, and those fumes have to be able to escape easily into the atmosphere and not be forced through the liquid weld metal.

∙ 16y agoUh huh, it is common practice as nipples in drainage are galvanized and the P traps are normally brass.=Over a period of time there is galvanic corrosion electrolytic action where the brass /copper eat away at the galvanized piping as one is non ferrous metal and the other one is ferrous metal=
