Galfan

Production

The galfan coating consists of a zinc-aluminium alloy.

The composition of the coating is approx. 5% aluminium and approx. 95% zinc.

The presence of aluminium gives this particular coating greater corrosion resistance than galvanised coating, with the same coating thickness.

Cold-forming and drawing steels

The coated stamping steels category provides users with excellent performance in terms of deep drawing, bendability and formability.

In addition to these mechanical characteristics, the chosen coating allows protection from oxidation even after the material has been processed.

The higher the grade chosen, DX51D ==> DX57D, the greater the material’s propensity for deep drawing.

Main fields of application

Structural steels

The category of coated structural steels allows users to have excellent performance in terms of strength, with a high minimum yield strength index.

In addition to these mechanical properties, the chosen coating allows protection from oxidation even after the material has been processed.

The higher the grade chosen, S220GD ==> S350GD, the greater the material’s propensity for mechanical resistance.

Main fields of application

High-strength steels

Also called micro-alloy steels, in addition to a low carbon content they have a high purity internal molecular structure. Due to their low carbon content, they exhibit improved weldability. The ductility, fatigue resistance and formability of these steels offer high performance at a low weight.
