About Carbon Steel. Electro Zinc Coated Coil consists of rolled iron/steel sheets or strips coated by electrodeposited pure zinc. The coiled metal can be hot or cold-rolled, depending on the desired properties, with the cold-rolled material being a further processed hot-rolled product with better finishing and improved mechanical properties. After coiling, the product goes through an electrogalvanizing process to acquire a thin and uniform layer of zinc, with its thickness ranging from 4 to 14 micrometers, although the most common values range from 8 to 10 micrometers. Because of its excellent adhesion, the coating remains intact even after severe deformation.
The coils are heavy, and this weight is concentrated. Because of that, it must be shipped carefully in a way to prevent straining or otherwise damaging the shipping container, whether transport is carried out by ship, truck or train. Also, attention is needed in the packaging, stowage, and lashing operations.
The uses and applications of Electro Zinc Coated Coil may vary according to its specification. The main forms of Electro Zinc Coated Coil are commercial steel; drawing steel; deep drawing steel; extra-deep drawing steel; structural steel; high-strength low-alloy steel; high-strength low-alloy steel with improved formability; solution-hardened steel; and bake-hardenable steel.
Electro Zinc Coated Coils are used in many different fields due to its resistance to corrosion, excellent paintability, and processability. It can be used to manufacture vehicles, doors and window frames, computer cases, industrial packaging, and automotive panels.
