Electrogalv Steel

Electrogalvanised mild steel combines the strength and workability of mild steel with a thin zinc coating applied through an electroplating process. This coating provides improved corrosion resistance compared with untreated steel while maintaining a smooth, clean, and consistent surface finish. The electrogalv surface also provides an excellent keying face for powder coating, delivering strong adhesion and a high-quality, durable finish.

As a result, electrogalv steel is particularly well suited to applications that will be painted or powder coated, and is widely used for cabinetry, shelving, and interior joinery where a refined appearance and reliable coating performance are required for indoor environments. It is also commonly used for interior architectural features, ventilation panels, equipment enclosures, air conditioning grilles, and commercial fit-outs where moderate corrosion resistance is required.

Electrogalvanised sheet is often selected when a project requires better protection than standard mild steel but does not require the heavier zinc coating associated with hot dip galvanised steel.
