Steel is an essential material for national construction and economic growth and is used in a wide variety of applications. The product we are introducing today is Galvalume steel, which is widely used in construction, machinery, coal mines, chemicals, railway vehicles, the automotive industry, roads, bridges, containers, sports facilities and agricultural machinery. This article will give a brief summary of the characteristics of Galvalume steel.
What is Galvalume steel?
Advantages of Galvalume steel.
Maintenance of Galvalume steel.
Galvalume steel is a metal made of ordinary carbon construction steel that has been galvanised. Due to the higher chemical activity of zinc than iron. When galvanic corrosion occurs, it is the zinc that corrodes first and not the iron. The zinc oxide is relatively dense and this prevents further oxidation. As a result, galvanised steel tubes usually have better corrosion resistance. There are two types of galvanised steel: electro-galvanised and hot-dip galvanised. In this case, hot dip galvanised steel pipe is made by reacting the molten metal with the iron substrate to produce an alloy layer, thus combining both the substrate and the coating.
Processability
Galvalume steel is excellent in terms of processability, meeting the requirements of roll forming, press forming, bending and other forms of processing.
Corrosion resistance
Galvalume steel is an ordinary carbon construction steel that has been galvanised to prevent corrosion and rusting, thereby extending the life of the steel. Galvalume steel is therefore partially resistant to corrosion and has a long service life.
A wide range of applications
Since its introduction, Galvalume steel has been used in a wide range of industries such as construction and household appliances. As a result of the expanding range of applications, the formability and various properties of the steel sheets have been improved, resulting in an increasing number of types of Galvalume steel.
These are the main advantages of galvalume steel. In recent years, Galvalume steel has undergone a variety of improvements in terms of corrosion resistance, rapid forming technology and surface coating, and has undergone a technical build-up that has resulted in reduced manufacturing costs and a much better appearance.
Care of Galvalume steel.
Although Galvalume steel is highly resistant to corrosion, Galvalume steel can still rust if not used properly. When Galvalume steel rusts, it is important to first clean the steel surface with a solvent to remove any organic matter from the surface, then use a tool to remove loose or sloping scale, rust, weld slag, etc,
We recommend the use of pickling to avoid damage to the surface of Galvalume steel.
This is all we have to say about Galvalume steel. Do you have a better understanding of Galvalume steel?
