Description
Our 1.5mm thick Zintec mild steel sheet is a versatile material known for its excellent machinability and smooth finish. This sheet, made from CR4 grade mild steel, is ideal for applications requiring precision and a clean surface finish.
Material: Mild Steel
Shape: Sheet
Grade: CR4
Thickness: 1.5mm
Weight per Meter: 12.6 Kg
Key Features:
-
Zintec Finish:
- The sheet is electro-zinc coated, providing a smooth surface finish that is ideal for further painting or coating. This coating offers some protection against corrosion, though additional treatments are recommended for enhanced durability.
-
Formability: Fair
- This sheet can be formed and shaped, though it may require more effort compared to other materials with higher formability.
-
Weldability: Poor
- Welding can be challenging due to the Zintec coating, which may require special techniques and post-weld treatments to maintain the integrity of the material.
-
Machinability: Excellent
- Offers superior machinability, making it ideal for precise cutting, drilling, and other machining operations. This characteristic is crucial for manufacturing and industrial applications where accuracy is paramount.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Poor
- While the Zintec finish provides some corrosion resistance, it is not sufficient for harsh environments. Additional protective coatings or treatments are recommended for applications exposed to moisture or corrosive elements.
Applications:
-
Manufacturing:
- Perfect for fabricating components, machinery, and tools that require precise machining and a clean finish.
-
Automotive:
- Suitable for internal vehicle parts and components where precision and finish are important.
-
Appliance and Equipment:
- Ideal for parts and panels in household appliances and industrial equipment.
-
General Engineering:
- Useful for various engineering projects that demand durable and precisely machined steel.
-
Construction:
- Suitable for structural components and other construction elements requiring a smooth finish and precise dimensions.
