China Suppliers Factory Hot-Dipped Zinc-Aluminum-Magnesium ZAM Steel Sheets and Coils for Superior Corrosion Resistance

What Is Zam?

,

Zam, or Zn-Al-Mg coated steel, is an advanced, highly corrosion-resistant coated steel sheet developed for durability and longevity. The unique coating composition primarily consists of zinc as the base with approximately 11% aluminum, 3% magnesium, and trace amounts of silicon. This innovative blend of elements enhances corrosion resistance, making Zam a superior choice compared to traditional hot-dip galvanized steel sheets and hot-dip galvanized-55% aluminum alloy steel sheets. While it offers equal corrosion resistance, Zam features reduced adhesion properties, making it ideal for various applications.

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.

Reference

WHEELING-NIPPON STEEL is proud to announce our newest product, ZAM® - branded the "Corrosion protection of the 21st Century".
