    Hot-dipped Zinc-Aluminum-Magnesium ZAM Steel Sheets Coil

    What Is Zam?

    Zn-Al-Mg is a new type of highly corrosion-resistant coated steel sheet with a coating composition consisting of zinc as the main substrate in combination with aluminum (about 11%), magnesium (about 3%) and a trace amount of silicon.Adding Al, Mg, and Si to it, the composite effect of these added elements improves corrosion resistance.Compared with hot-dip galvanized steel sheet and hot-dip galvanized-55% aluminium alloy steel sheet, it has less adhesion but equal corrosion resistance.


    Features Of Hot Dip Zn-Al-Mg Alloy Coated Steel

    · Longer service life than other coated products

    · Cut edge rust protection - the hallmark feature of ZAM

    · Thinner coating yet more protection - ecologically friendly

    · Excellent in severe environments - especially coastal and agricultural

    · Eliminates the need for post dip (batch) galvanizing

    · Superior formability due to coating characteristics

    · Cost savings through longer service life and reduced maintenance

    · Bridges the product gap between heavily coated galvanized and costly stainless steel

    ZAM Applications

    Suitable applications for ZAM include: construction (architectural building panels, perforated panels, metal facades, roofing), automotive, agricultural applications (chicken grow out houses, swine containment, hoop buildings, grain bins, silos, etc.), green house structures, industrial HVAC, cooling towers, solar racking, school bus decking, swimming pool, sign posts, guardrail facades, coastal environments, cable trays, switch boxes, steel decking and framing, sound/wind/snow barriers and many other applications.

    Prepainting or color coating ZAM is regularly done in other markets with very good results and reviews. Qingdao Sincerely Steel is currently working with major paint suppliers and construction associations to gain full acceptance of this newly introduced coating.
