Details about Hot Dipped Galvanized Steel (GI ) Coils and Plates

Galvanized Steel Coil Supplier

HnL STEEL is a supplier of galvanized steel coils in China. Our production line boasts an annual capacity of 100,000 tons and a manufacturing speed of 150 meters per minute. We produce galvanized steel coils with widths ranging from 750 to 1250mm and coating weights from 20-300g/m3, adhering to EN 10346 and ASTM A653 standards. We maintain a substantial stock of galvanized steel coils to ensure rapid delivery.

Galvanized Coating Layers

Our galvanized steel coils are available with various surface treatments to meet specific application needs:

  • Anti-Fingerprint
  • Chromated: Enhances corrosion resistance, making it suitable for applications where the coil is used without painting. Also known as passivation treatment, it improves the surface structure, gloss, corrosion resistance, and bonding of the coating.
  • Oiled/Non-Oiled: Oiling provides a protective layer against rust during transportation and storage.

Zinc Plating Layer

  • We offer zinc plating layers ranging from 20-120g/m2.

Base Material

  • Cold Rolled Steel Sheet

Surface Structure

Feature Zero Spangle Big Spangle
Weight of zinc coating Zinc > 20g/sm Zinc > 30g/sm
Surface Finish Spangle-free galvanized steel sheets are produced with specialized processes to control spangles to a certain level. They are commonly used in home appliance housings. Spangled galvanized steel sheet is obtained through the condensation of the zinc coating under normal conditions after galvanizing and is often used in buildings.

Surface Treatment Options

Surface Treatment Type Code Feature
Chromic acid treatment C Good corrosion resistance, suitable for bare state
Chromic acid treatment + oiling S Good corrosion resistance
Phosphoric acid treatment (including sealing treatment) P A certain degree of corrosion resistance, good paint performance
Phosphoric acid treatment + oiling Q Certain corrosion resistance, good paint performance, and prevents rust during transportation and storage
Phosphoric acid treatment (excluding sealing treatment) T A certain degree of corrosion resistance and good paint performance
Phosphoric acid treatment + oiling V Certain corrosion resistance, good paint performance, and prevents rust
Oiled O Prevents rust during transportation and storage
No treatment M Suitable for immediate painting

Types of Zinc Coating

  • Pure Zinc Coating: Achieved by immersing pre-treated steel strip in a molten zinc bath containing at least 99% zinc.
  • Zinc-Iron Alloy Coating: Created through an alloying process where the galvanized steel coil is heated to 550-560°C for 5-10 seconds to convert the pure zinc layer into a zinc-iron alloy with an iron content of 8-15%. This enhances weldability, coating performance, heat resistance, and corrosion resistance.
    • Example: EN 10346 DX51D+Z (pure zinc)
    • Example: EN 10346 DX51D+ZF (zinc-iron alloy coating)

Standards

  • American ASTM A653:
    • Commercial Steel (CS Types A, B, and C): Low-carbon, cold-formed steel suitable for applications like galvanized steel roofing.
    • Forming Steel (FS Types A and B): Offers higher drawability for applications like lamp cover forming.
    • Deep Drawing Steel (DDS)
    • Extra Deep Drawing Steel (EDDS)
    • Structural Steel (SS) – (Grades 33, 37, 40, 50, 80)
    • High Strength Low Alloy Steel (HSLAS)
  • European EN 10346:
    • Low Carbon Steel for Cold Forming (DX51D – DX54D):
      • DX51D: Equivalent to Commercial Steel, suitable for curved and profiled applications.
      • DX52D: Equivalent to Forming Steel.
      • DX53D: Equivalent to Deep Drawing Steel.
      • DX54D: Equivalent to Extra Deep Drawing Steel.
    • Structural Steels (S220GD – S350GD):
      • S220GD, S250GD, S280GD, S320GD, S350GD: Used for high load-bearing capacity with yield strengths from 220-350.

Applications

Galvanized steel coil is used in a wide range of applications due to its long anti-corrosion period:

  • Automotive Industry: Car shells, spare parts, oil tanks, and water tanks.
  • Construction: Roofing, wall panels, water barriers, warehouse walls, and doors.
  • Home Appliances & Office Equipment: Air conditioners, washing machines, refrigerators, and photocopiers.
  • Substrate: For prepainted steel coils, enhancing durability with polyethylene coatings.
