Galvanised Sheet
Galvanised Sheet / GI sheet
Galvanised sheets, also known as GI (Galvanised Iron) sheets, are widely used in various industries due to their exceptional properties and versatility. These sheets are made from steel coated with a layer of zinc, which provides excellent corrosion resistance and durability. The zinc coating creates a protective barrier, preventing the underlying steel from rusting and extending the lifespan of the material. Galvanised sheets come in different spangle variations, including zero spangle, minimized spangle, regular spangle, and large spangle, each offering unique surface characteristics.
The spangle patterns on galvanised sheets are a result of the crystalline structure formed during the galvanisation process.
Zero spangle refers to a smooth surface without any visible crystalline patterns.
Minimized spangle exhibits small, discreet crystalline formations, while regular spangle displays larger, more distinct crystals.
Large spangle has even more prominent crystalline structures, giving it a distinct appearance. The choice of spangle pattern depends on aesthetic preferences and specific application requirements.
The zinc coating layer on galvanised sheets plays a vital role in protecting the underlying steel. It acts as a sacrificial layer, corroding in place of the steel if the sheet is exposed to moisture or corrosive elements. This sacrificial action helps maintain the integrity of the steel and prevents rust formation. The thickness of the zinc coating can vary depending on the desired level of protection and the application requirements. Thicker coatings offer enhanced durability and longevity.
Galvanised sheets are available in both coil and sheet forms, providing flexibility in their usage. Coils are large continuous rolls of galvanised sheet that are commonly used in automated manufacturing processes. Sheets are individual flat pieces, often cut from coils, and are suitable for various applications where specific dimensions are required.

The applications of galvanised sheets are diverse and extensive. They are commonly used in construction for roofing, wall cladding, and structural components. The corrosion resistance of galvanised sheets makes them ideal for outdoor applications exposed to harsh environmental conditions. They are also utilized in the automotive industry for manufacturing body panels, chassis components, and exhaust systems. Additionally, galvanised sheets find applications in appliances, electrical enclosures, agricultural equipment, and various other sectors that require robust and long-lasting materials.

Galvanised sheets come in a range of specifications and sizes to cater to different industry needs. These specifications include the thickness of the sheet, the width, the coating weight (zinc coating thickness), and the spangle pattern. The sizes can vary from thin gauge sheets used for light applications to thicker and wider sheets for heavy-duty purposes. Customers can specify their requirements for zinc coat and material grade, allowing them to obtain galvanised sheets that meet their specific performance and budgetary needs.
The production process of galvanised sheets involves several stages. It begins with the cleaning and pickling of the steel to remove impurities and contaminants. The steel is then immersed in a bath of molten zinc, where a metallurgical reaction occurs between the zinc and the steel surface, resulting in the formation of a zinc-steel alloy coating. The coated steel is subsequently cooled and solidified before being further processed into coils or sheets.
