Galvalume Steel Coil
Product Overview
Our Aluzinc Steel Coil (also known as Galvalume®) is a high-quality coated steel product designed to offer the best combination of corrosion protection, heat reflectivity, and formability. The coating consists of approximately 55% aluminum, 43.5% zinc, and 1.5% silicon, creating a unique structure that delivers exceptional performance in a wide range of environments.
This product combines the long-term corrosion resistance of aluminum with the galvanic protection of zinc, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring durability, aesthetic appeal, and cost-effectiveness. Available in various thicknesses, widths, and surface finishes, our Aluzinc coils are manufactured to strict international standards (ASTM, JIS, EN) and are suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Quick Specification Table (Typical Options)
| Item | Typical Range / Options | Buyer Notes |
| Base steel grades | DX51D, SGCC, SPCC, DC01, S220–S450 | Select by forming, stamping and strength needs |
| Base thickness | 0.12 mm – 3.0 mm (common: 0.25–1.5 mm) | Tight tolerances available on request |
| Strip/coil width | 600 mm – 2000 mm (common: 914, 1000, 1250 mm) | Slit/coils per buyer processing needs |
| Coating mass / thickness | AZ30 – AZ180 g/m² (expressed as g/m² total or g/m² per side) | Higher mass for aggressive environments; specify per side or total |
| Surface finish | Smooth, Embossed (rare), Silicon residue/Matte | Smooth finish favored for painting and reflective roofs |
| Surface treatment | Passivation, chromate-free passivation, oiling | Pre-treatment improves paint adhesion and storage resistance |
| Coating appearance | Bright/metallic with thin Al oxide layer | Less spangle than HDG; stable appearance for roofs |
Typical Applications (buyer-oriented)
Roofing & cladding: superior corrosion resistance and heat reflectivity improve roof life and energy performance.
Prepainted coil (PPGL): widely used as substrate for durable paint systems (coil coating for gutters, facades).
HVAC components & ducting: where improved corrosion resistance and heat stability are desired.
Agricultural buildings & storage: longer life in corrosive atmospheres than Zn coating.
Light gauge steel framing & purlins: offers good protection while allowing roll-forming.
Appliance panels & architectural elements: preferred when appearance and longevity matter.
FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions (for International Buyers)
Q: What is the difference between Al‑Zn coated coil (Galvalume) and traditional hot‑dip galvanized coil?
A: Al‑Zn coated coil uses an alloy coating (typically ~55% Al / 43.4% Zn / 1.6% Si) that offers better barrier protection, heat reflectivity, and long-term performance in many exposures compared to conventional Zn-only coatings.
Hot‑dip galvanized provides stronger sacrificial protection in some cut-edge or very aggressive environments, but Al‑Zn generally outperforms Zn for roof and cladding applications.
Q: How is coating mass specified for Al‑Zn coil?
A: Coating mass is usually given in g/m² (total or per side).
Typical ranges might be AZ30–AZ180 g/m² (total both sides or expressed per side—confirm which convention your supplier uses).
Higher coating mass increases corrosion life and price.
Q: How does Al‑Zn perform in coastal or industrial environments?
A: Al‑Zn generally performs well in moderately aggressive environments and often better than Zn-only coatings on horizontal surfaces.
For extreme coastal or highly corrosive industrial environments, higher coating mass or specialized coatings (e.g., heavy AZ coating, stainless, or protective paint systems) may be required.
Request salt spray or cyclic corrosion data for critical projects.
Q: Are there any forming or welding concerns with Al‑Zn coils?
A: Generally Al‑Zn is formable and weldable for typical fabrication methods (bending, roll-forming, spot welding).
For tight bends, deep drawing, or specialized welding, run qualification tests (bend, mandrel, weld trials) and specify allowable forming radius to ensure coating integrity.
