Galvanized Steel Coil
Hot dipped galvanized steel Coil or Sheet is manufactured by passing cold rolled steel through a molten bath of Zinc at temperatures around 460 °C. The Zinc coating acts as a robust physical barrier between the atmosphere and the surface of the metal. Further, due to its lower chemical potential than iron, it is attacked and dissolved first, thereby offering superior corrosion resistance (cathodic protection).
SURFACE FINISH & COATING THICKNESS
Galvanized steel can be identified by the crystallization pattern on the surface (often referred to as "spangle"). Regular, Minimized and Suppressed Spangle are the three types of surface finishes that are available. The service life of this material would depend on the coating thickness, which is available between 60 to 350 grams per square meter.
GI Applications
GI has a wide variety of applications which include Roofing, Sidewall Partitions, False Ceilings, Decking, Steel Buildings, Automobile Components, Water Heater and Coolers, Furniture, Rolling Shutters, Sign Boards, HVAC Ducting and many more.
Galvanized steel Advantage
- Superior corrosion resistance
- Higher aesthetic value
- Excellent workability and adherence to paint
