Coated - Painted Steels

 

Coated Steels

• Coated Steels: Steel products covered with another material (zinc, tin, chrome or organic coatings) primarily for increasing corrosion resistance.
• Hot Dip Galvanized: Hot or cold rolled steel sheet coated in both sides with a zinc layer through its immersion in a molten metal bath to improve corrosion protection.

• Galvannealed: Hot dip galvanized steel coated with a zinc-iron diffusion alloy produced by re-heating of the strip after immersion in the metal bath. The Galvannealed steel has an iron content in its coating of approximately 10%, which renders it particularly appropriate for welding, especially in automotive industry applications.
• Cincalum - Galval: Hot dip galvanized steel coated with a 55% aluminum and zinc alloy with high corrosion resistance. The Aluminum/Zinc coating offers combined barrier and galvanic protection that improve product performance for construction applications in most environments including rural, industrial and marine sites.
• Electrogalvanized: Cold-rolled steel coated with a thin layer of zinc applied by an electroplating continuous process, in one or both sides, aimed at increasing corrosion resistance. These products are widely used in the automotive and home appliance industries.

• Prepainted: Organic coated steel products produced in continuous painting lines. They offer high corrosion resistance with a number of different aesthetic possibilities which make them ideal for the construction and home appliance industries. Prepainted products combine the high strength of steel with the attractive colors and enhanced corrosion protection of paints.

• Tin plate: Low-carbon thin gauge cold rolled steel coated with a tin layer applied by an electroplating continuous process, with improved corrosion resistance for application in the food canning and packing industries.
