Galvanized Steel Sheet with Unique Advantages is Favored by Consumers

Galvanized Steel Sheet

Galvanized steel sheet, also called zinc coated steel sheet, owns many merits like strong coating adhesiveness, high erosion-resistance, accurately controlled zinc coating thickness, high size precision, flat profile and good mechanical, processing and welding performance. Therefore, the galvanized steel sheet is not best sale in the international market but favored by the customers. Category of Hot-dip galvanized products: commercial purpose, drawing, deep drawing, extra deep drawing, supreme extra deep drawing, structure, and cold forming.The products of these lines are widely used in electrical household appliance, architecture, transportation, furniture, auto parts etc.

Galvanized Steel Sheet
Available sizes: 
  • Nominal thickness: 0.30mm~3.0mm
  • nominal width: 800mm~1830mm
  • Note: nominal thickness of a plate/strip is sum of base plate thickness and coating thickness

Surface structure Code No. Features Application
Conventional spangle Z Spangles condensated on zinc coating under normal conditions after galvanizing. Commercial purposes
Small spangle X Surface in spangles smaller than conventional ones and due to controlled condensation of zinc coating. Applications where conventional spangles cannot meet the surface appearance requirements.
Skin passed spangle G Surface structure after special skin pass treatment. Applications of high surface quality requirements, such as color coating base plates.
Skin passed small spangle GX
Zero spangle N No visible spangles on coating surface as a result of a special production process. -
Zn-Fe alloy R No spangle, gray, normally matte Applicable to further painting

Surface treatment
Chromate treatment (L) Chromate treatment is a chemical treatment with an aim to prevent white rusts formed on product surfaces during transportation and storage.
Oiling (Y) Oiling is to prevent white rusts formed on product surfaces during transportation and storage.
Chromate treatment+ Oiling (LY) Chromate treatment+ Oiling (LY) This treatment with oiling after surface chromate treatment is to further avoid the forming of white rusts.

Surface quality

Code No. Features
FB (O3) t is allowed for the existence of small erosion spots, dark spots, strip marks, minor chromate treatment defects and small zinc particles.
FC (O4) No erosion spot is allowed. However, it is allowed for the existence of light impression, scratches, zinc flow ripple marks, minor chromate treatment defects in small range, while the other side must reach FB requirements at least.
FD (O5) One side of relatively good quality must further restrict on defects, namely appearance quality after painting is not affected, and the other side must reach FB requirements at least.
