Hot dip galvanized steels are manufactured by the continuous zinc coating of cold rolled coils. Bare surface material passes through a bath of molten zinc and gets coated. At the exit point, air blades sweep excess zinc by the means of pressurized air flow leaving a thin layer of zinc on surface.
The main advantage of galvanized steels over cold rolled steels is their resistance to corrosion and longer life span. This feature makes them a good choice for automotive industry and for products that are subject to ambient conditions. such as cladding, roofs, doors, fences, and various profiles.
Galvanized materials’ surface qualities are produced in accordance with international standards in three different surface types A, B and C (best quality). In accordance with EN 10346 surface qualities are described as seen below.
Imperfections such as dips, scratches, variations in surface appearance, dark spots, light passivation stains are permissible. Stretch levelling breaks or run-off marks may appear.
It is obtained by skin passing. Minor imperfections such as slight scratches, skin-pass marks, stretch levelling breaks, run-off marks, surface structure and light passivation stains are permissible.
It is also obtained by skin passing. The surface shall be of homogenic property to enable high-class paint finishing. The reverse surface shall at least have the characteristics of surface quality B.
The hot dipped galvanized steel grades we offer as Ferineks are as in the table.
