Coiled steel is a material that is used in various industries and construction. The popularity of this material on the market is due to:
- long service life;
- the ability to store without damage;
- ease of transportation;
- corrosion resistance;
- durability;
- strength;
- good appearance.
In addition to the aforementioned advantages, rolled steel may have various parameters suitable for a specific field of application of the material, which affect the ease of formation of products and their elements.
Galvanized steel finishing elements
Such elements are used for the construction of verandas, fencing houses and plots with fences, when arranging balconies and loggias, in order to create ventilation and viewing windows in devices, as well as for the manufacture of various containers. In addition, finishing elements galvanized steel are used for the production of metal tiles, profiled sheets, sandwich panels, profiles for gypsum plasterboard, canopies, drainage systems and similar units exposed to high humidity or other aggressive environment.
Coil cutting is done in various ways. Distinguish:
- transverse;
- longitudinal;
- longitudinal-transverse cutting.
This makes it possible to use ready-made rolls of small sizes for the work of the roofer directly on the roof, and in general simplifies the process of working with this material. Rare modern construction can do without this material, because it perfectly interacts with drywall and other finishing materials.
Another important advantage of galvanized rolls is the presence of a passivating layer. It is he who protects the material from the appearance of "white rust".
Due to the high metal drawing characteristics of galvanized steel in coils, it is possible to make three-dimensional structures and parts from it.
The modern market also provides color coated steel coils. Possessing all the classic advantages of galvanizing, this material has additional advantages:
- firstly , it has practically no pores, this significantly increases its weather resistance and corrosion resistance, therefore, increases its durability;
- secondly , a galvanized roll with a polymer coating is a ready-made beautiful decorative material, because its top layer is made in different colors. This layer is much more durable than any high quality paint.
As you can see, the range of application of steel in coils is very wide, the performance characteristics are very good, but with all this, the price of this material is relatively low. All this makes the material very popular in manufacturing, construction and repair.
