A36 is an ASTM standard carbon steel grade. "Painted Zinc Coated" indicates a colored coating (such as PE, PVDF, etc.) applied to the zinc coating, providing both corrosion protection and decorative properties.
Zinc coating range: 30-275g/m² (common Z30-Z275)
Coating types: PE (polyester), PVDF (fluorocarbon), HDP (high-weather resistant), etc.
Thickness: 0.18-3.5mm (0.4-1.2mm is common in construction)
Width: 600-1500mm (customizable)
Coating hardness: 2H-3H (pencil hardness)
Weather resistance: 10-25 years (maximum for PVDF coating)
Applications
Construction: Metal roofs, siding (requires PVDF coating)
Industrial equipment: Containers, ventilation ducts (high-zinc coating Z275)
Home appliance manufacturing: Refrigerator panels, air conditioner casings (matte PPGI)
