Marine Grade Galvanized Steel

Marine grade galvanized steel is a galvanized steel with good corrosion resistance in high salt and humid marine environments, the thickness of the zinc layer determines the corrosion resistance of the steel, generally used in coastal areas of galvanized steel with a zinc layer thickness of 80 microns to 125 microns or even thicker, the service life of the steel in the 8–30 years.

Zinc Coating for Galvanized Steel in Marine Environments

The zinc layer determines the service life of the galvanized steel, so choosing the right zinc thickness for each application will maximize the performance of the steel and reduce project costs. We recommend a zinc coating of around 65 microns for general outdoor construction, 80 microns for coastal areas, and 125 microns for special offshore projects.

UseRecommended
Indoor usesZ10 or Z12 (100 g/㎡or 120 g/㎡)
Suburban areaZ20 and painted (200 g/㎡)
Urban or industrial areaZ27 (270 g/㎡) or G90 (American Standard) and painted
Coastal areaThicker than Z27 (270 g/㎡) or G90 (American Standard) and painted
Stamping or deep drawing applicationsThinner than Z27 (270 g/㎡) or G90 (American Standard) to avoid coating peeling off after stamping

Performance and Use of Marine-Grade Galvanized Steel

Galvanized steel used in marine environments must have good physical properties, safety, and economy. During use, it is necessary to ensure the stability of the structure and reduce the cost of long-term maintenance.

Performance

Excellent corrosion resistance

Good strength and toughness

Good water permeability

Anti-oxidation

Use

Ship

Dock

Offshore platform
