Hot dip galvanized steel coil EN 10346
Hot dip galvanized steel coil EN 10346 is a high-performance metal anti-corrosion material that meets European standards. It uses a continuous hot-dip coating process to form a zinc-iron alloy protective layer on the surface of the steel plate. As a base material for industries such as construction, automobiles, and home appliance manufacturing, its excellent weather resistance and economy make it an ideal choice to replace traditional cold-rolled plates.
EN 10346 is a technical standard for continuous hot-dip galvanized and zinc-iron alloy coated steel sheets and strips issued by the European Committee for Standardization, covering material properties, classification and application range.
| Material classification | Based on the purpose and performance, common materials include DX51D+Z (for foundation structure), HX500LAD (high-strength low-alloy steel), S550GD+Z (for high-strength structure), etc. |
|---|---|
| Coating specification | The weight range of the galvanized layer is 80~275g/m², which can meet the protection needs of different environments. |
| Surface treatment | Supports environmentally friendly passivation (such as flowerless galvanizing) and flowered galvanizing, which affects the appearance and post-processing adaptability. |
