Electro Galvanized Steel Sheet

Galvanized sheet is a type of anti-corrosion steel with a surface treated by galvanization. It is divided into two major categories: hot-dip galvanized sheet (GI) and electro-galvanized sheet (EG). Common grades include DX51D+Z, SGCC, SGCD, ST01Z, ST02Z, etc. The specifications cover galvanized coil sheets and galvanized plates with thickness ranging from 0.3mm to 3.0mm and width ranging from 600mm to 1500mm.

Product Description

Zinc plating (also known as electro-galvanising) is a process where zinc is applied by using a current of electricity. While is does provide some rust protection, its thinner coating is not as rust resistant as hot dip galvanising. Its main advantage is it is cheaper and easier to weld.

Application description

Electrogalvanizing, also known as cold galvanizing in the industry, cold galvanized sheet is mainly used in agricultural machinery, grain storage and high-speed guardrail and other industries in life. Its outstanding characteristics are low cost and high added value.
