EN-Automotive-Product-Metallic coated-All Grades Coatings Surface aspectsTSE

Coatings and Surface aspects

Coatings

Three types of metallic coating are available:

  • Pure zinc. Galvanised steel (GI) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc)
  • Zinc-iron alloy. Galvannealed steel (GA) is coated with a zinc coating containing approximately 8-12% iron. For further information on our galvannealed products please visit our Automotive catalogue.
     

Coating weight

Minimum

Maximum

Pure zinc (Z)90 (6 µm/side)600 (42 µm/side)
Zinc-iron (ZF)90 (6 µm/side)140 (10 µm/side)

Coating weight measured in g/m2 double-sided (µm, per side). 

Surface condition

Surface condition complies with standard: EN 10346:2015. Galvanised grades are available in surface condition with minimised spangle MB. Galvannealed grades are available in surface condition B. For the highest surface quality requirements we also offer Serica FLO®. For more details please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Surface condition B: improved surface, suitable for unexposed parts

With this surface condition, small imperfections such as stretch levelling breaks, skin pass marks, slight scratches, indentations, surface structure, zinc run-off marks and light passivation stains are permissible.


Surface finish

Galvanised (GI) grades with surface condition MC are available with different levels of surface finish. For exposed body panels with stringent paint appearance requirements we offer ‘regular’ surface finish. For panels with the highest paint appearance requirements we recommend the premium surface finish Serica FLO®.

Surface roughness

Metallic coated steel for automotive applications can be supplied in various grades of roughness to comply with individual customer norms. If no roughness is specified, roughness will be as shown in the table below

Roughness Ra (µm)
cut off 0.8mmcut off 2.5mm
0.6 - 1.90.7 - 2.2

​​​Surface treatments

The surface treatments available are oiling (O), T-treatment and prime lubrication treatment (PLT).

Oiling (O)

The material surface can be oiled with preservative oil. Other types of oil - for increasing strength or reducing weight – are available to help achieve your optimum performance parameters. Please contact us for details.

Tata Steel offers the following range of oiling levels:

Coating typeOiling level
Pure zinc (GI)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2
Zinc-iron(GA)0.5 - 1.5 g/m2
MagiZinc Auto(ZM)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2

Other oiling levels are available on request.
 

T-treatment

Please contact us for further information.

Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT)

Prime Lubrication Treatment facilitates the manufacturing of stamped components by minimising known issues in stamping and joining.

For further information please visit our Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT) page.

EN-Automotive-Product-Metallic coated-All Grades Coatings Surface aspectsTSE

Coatings and Surface aspects

Coatings

Three types of metallic coating are available:

  • Pure zinc. Galvanised steel (GI) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc)
  • Zinc-iron alloy. Galvannealed steel (GA) is coated with a zinc coating containing approximately 8-12% iron. For further information on our galvannealed products please visit our Automotive catalogue.
     

Coating weight

Minimum

Maximum

Pure zinc (Z)90 (6 µm/side)600 (42 µm/side)
Zinc-iron (ZF)90 (6 µm/side)140 (10 µm/side)

Coating weight measured in g/m2 double-sided (µm, per side). 

Surface condition

Surface condition complies with standard: EN 10346:2015. Galvanised grades are available in surface condition with minimised spangle MB. Galvannealed grades are available in surface condition B. For the highest surface quality requirements we also offer Serica FLO®. For more details please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Surface condition B: improved surface, suitable for unexposed parts

With this surface condition, small imperfections such as stretch levelling breaks, skin pass marks, slight scratches, indentations, surface structure, zinc run-off marks and light passivation stains are permissible.


Surface finish

Galvanised (GI) grades with surface condition MC are available with different levels of surface finish. For exposed body panels with stringent paint appearance requirements we offer ‘regular’ surface finish. For panels with the highest paint appearance requirements we recommend the premium surface finish Serica FLO®.

Surface roughness

Metallic coated steel for automotive applications can be supplied in various grades of roughness to comply with individual customer norms. If no roughness is specified, roughness will be as shown in the table below

Roughness Ra (µm)
cut off 0.8mmcut off 2.5mm
0.6 - 1.90.7 - 2.2

​​​Surface treatments

The surface treatments available are oiling (O), T-treatment and prime lubrication treatment (PLT).

Oiling (O)

The material surface can be oiled with preservative oil. Other types of oil - for increasing strength or reducing weight – are available to help achieve your optimum performance parameters. Please contact us for details.

Tata Steel offers the following range of oiling levels:

Coating typeOiling level
Pure zinc (GI)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2
Zinc-iron(GA)0.5 - 1.5 g/m2
MagiZinc Auto(ZM)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2

Other oiling levels are available on request.
 

T-treatment

Please contact us for further information.

Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT)

Prime Lubrication Treatment facilitates the manufacturing of stamped components by minimising known issues in stamping and joining.

For further information please visit our Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT) page.

EN-Automotive-Product-Metallic coated-All Grades Coatings Surface aspectsTSE

Coatings and Surface aspects

Coatings

Three types of metallic coating are available:

  • Pure zinc. Galvanised steel (GI) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc)
  • Zinc-iron alloy. Galvannealed steel (GA) is coated with a zinc coating containing approximately 8-12% iron. For further information on our galvannealed products please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Pure zinc (Z)90 (6 µm/side)600 (42 µm/side)
Zinc-iron (ZF)90 (6 µm/side)140 (10 µm/side)

Coating weight measured in g/m2 double-sided (µm, per side). 

Surface condition

Surface condition complies with standard: EN 10346:2015. Galvanised grades are available in surface condition with minimised spangle MB. Galvannealed grades are available in surface condition B. For the highest surface quality requirements we also offer Serica FLO®. For more details please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Surface condition B: improved surface, suitable for unexposed parts

With this surface condition, small imperfections such as stretch levelling breaks, skin pass marks, slight scratches, indentations, surface structure, zinc run-off marks and light passivation stains are permissible.


Surface finish

Galvanised (GI) grades with surface condition MC are available with different levels of surface finish. For exposed body panels with stringent paint appearance requirements we offer ‘regular’ surface finish. For panels with the highest paint appearance requirements we recommend the premium surface finish Serica FLO®.

Surface roughness

Metallic coated steel for automotive applications can be supplied in various grades of roughness to comply with individual customer norms. If no roughness is specified, roughness will be as shown in the table below

Roughness Ra (µm)
cut off 0.8mmcut off 2.5mm
0.6 - 1.90.7 - 2.2

​​​Surface treatments

The surface treatments available are oiling (O), T-treatment and prime lubrication treatment (PLT).

Oiling (O)

The material surface can be oiled with preservative oil. Other types of oil - for increasing strength or reducing weight – are available to help achieve your optimum performance parameters. Please contact us for details.

Tata Steel offers the following range of oiling levels:

Coating typeOiling level
Pure zinc (GI)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2
Zinc-iron(GA)0.5 - 1.5 g/m2
MagiZinc Auto(ZM)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2

Other oiling levels are available on request.
 

T-treatment

Please contact us for further information.

Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT)

Prime Lubrication Treatment facilitates the manufacturing of stamped components by minimising known issues in stamping and joining.

For further information please visit our Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT) page.

EN-Automotive-Product-Metallic coated-All Grades Coatings Surface aspectsTSE

Coatings and Surface aspects

Coatings

Three types of metallic coating are available:

  • Pure zinc. Galvanised steel (GI) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc)
  • Zinc-iron alloy. Galvannealed steel (GA) is coated with a zinc coating containing approximately 8-12% iron. For further information on our galvannealed products please visit our Automotive catalogue.
     

Coating weight

Minimum

Maximum

Pure zinc (Z)90 (6 µm/side)600 (42 µm/side)
Zinc-iron (ZF)90 (6 µm/side)140 (10 µm/side)

Coating weight measured in g/m2 double-sided (µm, per side). 

Surface condition

Surface condition complies with standard: EN 10346:2015. Galvanised grades are available in surface condition with minimised spangle MB. Galvannealed grades are available in surface condition B. For the highest surface quality requirements we also offer Serica FLO®. For more details please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Surface condition B: improved surface, suitable for unexposed parts

With this surface condition, small imperfections such as stretch levelling breaks, skin pass marks, slight scratches, indentations, surface structure, zinc run-off marks and light passivation stains are permissible.


Surface finish

Galvanised (GI) grades with surface condition MC are available with different levels of surface finish. For exposed body panels with stringent paint appearance requirements we offer ‘regular’ surface finish. For panels with the highest paint appearance requirements we recommend the premium surface finish Serica FLO®.

Surface roughness

Metallic coated steel for automotive applications can be supplied in various grades of roughness to comply with individual customer norms. If no roughness is specified, roughness will be as shown in the table below

Roughness Ra (µm)
cut off 0.8mmcut off 2.5mm
0.6 - 1.90.7 - 2.2

​​​Surface treatments

The surface treatments available are oiling (O), T-treatment and prime lubrication treatment (PLT).

Oiling (O)

The material surface can be oiled with preservative oil. Other types of oil - for increasing strength or reducing weight – are available to help achieve your optimum performance parameters. Please contact us for details.

Tata Steel offers the following range of oiling levels:

Coating typeOiling level
Pure zinc (GI)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2
Zinc-iron(GA)0.5 - 1.5 g/m2
MagiZinc Auto(ZM)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2

Other oiling levels are available on request.
 

T-treatment

Please contact us for further information.

Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT)

Prime Lubrication Treatment facilitates the manufacturing of stamped components by minimising known issues in stamping and joining.

For further information please visit our Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT) page.

EN-Automotive-Product-Metallic coated-All Grades Coatings Surface aspectsTSE

Coatings and Surface aspects

Coatings

Three types of metallic coating are available:

  • Pure zinc. Galvanised steel (GI) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc)
  • Zinc-iron alloy. Galvannealed steel (GA) is coated with a zinc coating containing approximately 8-12% iron. For further information on our galvannealed products please visit our Automotive catalogue.
     

Coating weight

Minimum

Maximum

Pure zinc (Z)90 (6 µm/side)600 (42 µm/side)
Zinc-iron (ZF)90 (6 µm/side)140 (10 µm/side)

Coating weight measured in g/m2 double-sided (µm, per side). 

Surface condition

Surface condition complies with standard: EN 10346:2015. Galvanised grades are available in surface condition with minimised spangle MB. Galvannealed grades are available in surface condition B. For the highest surface quality requirements we also offer Serica FLO®. For more details please visit our Automotive catalogue.

Surface condition B: improved surface, suitable for unexposed parts

With this surface condition, small imperfections such as stretch levelling breaks, skin pass marks, slight scratches, indentations, surface structure, zinc run-off marks and light passivation stains are permissible.


Surface finish

Galvanised (GI) grades with surface condition MC are available with different levels of surface finish. For exposed body panels with stringent paint appearance requirements we offer ‘regular’ surface finish. For panels with the highest paint appearance requirements we recommend the premium surface finish Serica FLO®.

Surface roughness

Metallic coated steel for automotive applications can be supplied in various grades of roughness to comply with individual customer norms. If no roughness is specified, roughness will be as shown in the table below

Roughness Ra (µm)
cut off 0.8mmcut off 2.5mm
0.6 - 1.90.7 - 2.2

​​​Surface treatments

The surface treatments available are oiling (O), T-treatment and prime lubrication treatment (PLT).

Oiling (O)

The material surface can be oiled with preservative oil. Other types of oil - for increasing strength or reducing weight – are available to help achieve your optimum performance parameters. Please contact us for details.

Tata Steel offers the following range of oiling levels:

Coating typeOiling level
Pure zinc (GI)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2
Zinc-iron(GA)0.5 - 1.5 g/m2
MagiZinc Auto(ZM)0.25 - 1.5 g/m2

Other oiling levels are available on request.
 

T-treatment

Please contact us for further information.

Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT)

Prime Lubrication Treatment facilitates the manufacturing of stamped components by minimising known issues in stamping and joining.

For further information please visit our Prime Lubrication Treatment (PLT) page.
