GI sheets
means galvanizing iron sheets. Galvanizing is a process by which iron is made
rust free. In galvanizing process the zinc coating is done on the iron or steel
to make it rust free. So, GI sheets are stainless steel sheets galvanized
with zinc. GI sheets also include hot
dip and electro galvanized steel sheets. Besides protecting the steel from rust
and corrosion, the zinc also keeps the initial strength of the steel intact for
long time. The other minor function of the zinc is to give polished finish to
the sheets.
GI sheets find
uses in every sector of the economy. They are used in agriculture as grain
silos, feeding troughs, sprayers and pans. In construction activities, GI
sheets find wide use as roof sheets, walls, panels, covers, rolling shutters,
highway bombers, partition walls, and painted coated products. Lots of
household items are made with GI sheets. The items made with GI sheets range
from small tubs and water buckets to washing machines and pipes and other
fitting where water is constantly used.
It also finds
use in manufacturing of electrical appliances, air conditioners, electrical
panels and decorative items. Furniture items like almirah, certain chairs and
sofa sets, racks are completely made with these sheets. The lockers for solid
protection are solely made with GI sheets. Other uses of GI sheets are in
manufacturing of railway coaches, containers for shipping companies, thermal cladding,
ducting drums, sign boards, hoardings and road signs etc.
GI sheets have
many advantages, which explain their wide use. The zinc coating is less
expensive GI Sheet Dealers
in Delhi than other coating for the steel and it has longer
life in every sitting and environment. The GI sheets can also be used in
coastal environment where the rate of corrosion in higher than other weather
areas. The maintenance is low and almost cost nothing over the long
period. The GI coating has unique
metallurgical structure and gives protection against any abrasion, or
mechanical damage that may occur during transportation, erection and service .Galvanized
coating provides automatic protection to the any damaged area of the sheet. In
other coatings, the damaged areas needs patch up but that is not the case with
GI sheets.
Galvanizing
the sheets gives them cathode or sacrificial protection to any small area
damaged during transportation. Thus the entire length of the sheets is
protected by the coating. The method of inspection of seeing the galvanizing of
steel is very easy. It can be seen by naked eyes. It can also be tested by
simple non destructive thickness method. The process of galvanizing is not
depended on any weather condition. The
life of galvanizing coating and protection quality MS
Angle Dealers in Delhi is reliable and can be predictable.
The galvanizing is done as per standards and only minimum coating is applied.
And finally, the look of galvanized stain less steel gets aesthetic appearance.
