Hot Dipped Coil - Aluzinc®
J Steel supplies Aluzinc® from the ArcelorMittal mill in Dudelange, France in a variety of grades and standards. Coils can be supplied to Australian, European, and American Standards, as well as others on request.
Thanks to its excellent corrosion resistance and spangled silver colour, Aluzinc® is very popular for applications such as roofing and structural sections. The coating is composed of 55% aluminium, 43.4% zinc and 1.6% silicon and applied by means of a continuous hot dip galvanising process.
The excellent corrosion resistance of Aluzinc® is a result of the properties of its two metallic constituents: the barrier effect of the aluminium present on the surface of the coating and the sacrificial protection of zinc.
The characteristic spangled silver colour of Aluzinc® gives it a very attractive appearance. Thanks to a thin transparent layer of aluminium oxide on the top surface of the coating, this appearance is preserved over time.
