Classification standards for zinc layer thickness of galvanized sheet

galvanized steel sheet ms plate cold steel plate Gi Sheet


There are many standards for the thickness of the zinc layer of galvanized sheets, as follows:

‌Chinese standard‌:
Common galvanizing thickness standards include 70g/m2, 100g/m2, 120g/m2, 140g/m2 and 275g/m2. Among them, the thickness of 70g/m2 and 100g/m2 is suitable for general applications, while the thickness above 120g/m2 is more suitable for products with high requirements for corrosion resistance, such as pipes and profile steel.

‌International standard‌:
‌ISO standard‌: Common thickness standards include 0.18mm, 0.20mm, 0.22mm, 0.25mm, 0.30mm, 0.35mm and 0.40mm, etc.
‌ASTM standard‌: Common thickness standards include G60 and G90, where G60 represents a zinc layer weight of 8.2kg/㎡ and G90 represents a zinc layer weight of 27.6kg/㎡.
‌JIS standard‌: Common thickness standards include G3302 and G3313.

‌Hot-dip galvanizing method‌: The zinc layer is thicker, usually 60~300g/m² (single side).
‌Electroplating method‌: The zinc layer is thinner, usually 10~50g/m² (single side), with uniform and stable thickness and bright and smooth surface.
