What is a galvanized steel coil?

Galvanized steel coil and GI steel coil refer to the same product, is cold rolled steel plate coated with zinc.

It is also known as galvanized iron or GI.

Galvanized steel coil is made of cold-rolled steel plate through the molten zinc tank. The zinc coating provides corrosion resistance by acting as a protective barrier between the steel and the environment.

Galvanized steel rolls are usually used in applications that require rust protection and extended durability, such as:

Construction and construction: roof, siding, drains, siding, decks, etc.

Galvanized coating protects the steel from rust even in harsh outdoor conditions.

• Vehicle parts: the impact resistance and rust prevention performance of galvanized steel such as panels, chassis parts and wheels are suitable for automobile manufacturing.

• Electrical appliances: refrigerator, washing machine, oven, etc. Galvanized steel provides strong support and rust protection.

• Storage system: the durability of galvanized steel such as shelves, containers and cabinets can be stored indoors and outdoors for a long time.

• Infrastructure: light posts, railings, posts, etc.

Galvanized steel has good corrosion resistance even when exposed to moisture, chemical and environmental contaminants.

Galvanized steel rolls are characterized by a protective zinc coating with controlled thickness.

It combines the strength of steel and zinc corrosion resistance.

The galvanized steel coil has a service life of 20-30 years without obvious flaking or cracking.

The thickness, uniformity and adhesion of the zinc coating determine the performance and durability of the product.

Galvanized steel coil is a widely used, cost-effective building materials.

However, the thickness of the zinc coating means that the galvanized steel is not easy to paint.

For color preference, pre-coated galvanized steel or the use of alternative corrosion resistant steel such as aluminum may be a better option.
