GP GI Sheet
Galvanized Plain (GP) and Galvanized Iron (GI) Sheets are flat-rolled steel products coated with a layer of zinc to enhance corrosion resistance. The terms GP and GI are often used interchangeably, though GP typically refers to sheets with a smooth, plain surface.
Specifications:
- Standard Range: Typically ranges from 0.3 mm to 3.0 mm. Custom thicknesses can be produced based on specific requirements.
- Standard Widths: Generally available from 600 mm to 1500 mm. Custom widths can be ordered to meet specific needs.
- Standard Lengths: Usually available in 2 meters to 4 meters. Custom lengths can be ordered based on project requirements.
- Coating Weight: Typically ranges from 60 g/m² to 275 g/m² (grams per square meter), depending on the corrosion resistance required.
- Standard Range: Typically ranges from 0.4 mm to 4.0 mm. Custom thicknesses are available.
- Standard Widths: Generally available from 750 mm to 1500 mm. Custom widths can be ordered.
- Standard Lengths: Usually available in 2 meters to 4 meters. Custom lengths can be ordered as needed.
- Coating Weight: Typically ranges from 100 g/m² to 275 g/m², providing varying levels of protection against corrosion.
Applications:
- Construction: Used for roofing sheets, wall cladding, and gutters due to their durability and corrosion resistance.
- Manufacturing: Employed in the production of components and equipment where corrosion resistance is critical.
- Automotive: Utilized in vehicle parts and panels, providing protection against rust and enhancing longevity.
- Industrial: Applied in industrial settings for equipment, machinery parts, and structural elements.
- Home and Building: Used in home construction for decorative and functional applications, including ceiling panels and partition walls.
Advantages:
- Corrosion Resistance: The zinc coating protects the steel from rust and corrosion, extending the lifespan of the sheets.
- Durability: Provides long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions.
- Versatility: Suitable for a wide range of applications due to its adaptability in machining and fabrication.
- Cost-Effective: Generally more affordable than stainless steel or other high-corrosion-resistant materials, offering good performance at a reasonable cost.
- Customizability: Available in various thicknesses, widths, and lengths to meet specific design and performance needs.
