Galvanized coil is a type of steel that is coated with zinc for protection by an electroplating process. The galvanized layer is applied to cold rolled steel at low temperatures. Galvanizing is a well-known and effective method to add a protective layer to prevent the exposed steel from being corroded by natural elements. Zinc not only acts as a barrier between the environment and the steel, but it also decomposes first to protect the underlying steel and extend its service life. Zinc is generally represented by Z. Z is the abbreviation of English Zinc. Z275 means that the galvanizing content is 275 grams per square meter, and so on. The number after Z indicates the average coating content at three points on both sides of the galvanized steel in grams per square meter.
Scope of Application
Galvanizing products are widely used in industry, agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery, energy, transportation, chemical industry, light industry, home appliances, construction, communications, national defense and other fields.
