| Application areas | Electrogalvanised products are particularly suitable for industrial and domestic appliances. Some of the most common applications include: | |
| Coating | ||
| Other | Storage ArcelorMittal’s electrogalvanised steel is supplied passivated and/or phosphated and/or oiled to temporarily limit the risk of white rust formation. During transport and storage, all necessary precautions must be taken to keep the material dry and to prevent the formation of condensation. Rust prevention can be further improved by the application of an Easyfilm® thin organic coating. Forming and joining The forming and joining techniques mainly used for uncoated steel sheets are also suitable for steel sheet with electrogalvanised coatings, even in the case of extreme forming operations. Forming performance is improved if electrogalvanised steel is coated with an Easyfilm® thin organic coating. Painting Electrogalvanised steel can be painted after degreasing and surface treatment when supplied oiled. When phosphated or coated with an Easyfilm® thin organic coating, electrogalvanised steel can be painted directly, without any prior surface treatment. However, the paint must be compatible with the Easyfilm® resin. Mechanical properties The choice of direction for the mechanical properties should be specified when ordering. | |
| Welding | In electrical resistance welding, the welding current must be suitably regulated and regularly adjusted. Electrode life can be extended by regularly stepping up the welding current and periodically dressing (machining) the electrodes. | |
