Specifications and dimensions

  • Coated thickness, width, length, diagonal and flatness for cut-to-length sheet

Standards and supply condition

  • ASTM A755/A755M for applicable exterior exposed prepainted building products
  • EN 10169 for applicable continuously organic-coated flat steel products

Manufacturing and processing

  • Shearing, profiling, film application, inspection and protected stacking must avoid coating damage.

Typical applications

  • Roof and wall panels
  • Doors, ceilings and interior partitions
  • Equipment housings and decorative fabrication

Quality and acceptance controls

  • Verify substrate grade, metallic coating and organic coating system as three separate order requirements.
  • Check dry-film thickness, adhesion, color, gloss, surface appearance, forming performance and back coat.
  • Agree color tolerance, protective film, cut-edge treatment, coil or bundle packing and dry storage before shipment.

Include in your RFQ

  • Substrate grade and metallic-coating specification
  • Paint chemistry, primer, top/back coat and dry-film thickness
  • Color standard, gloss and permitted color tolerance
  • Thickness, width or profile geometry, tolerances and quantity
  • Forming duty, protective film, tests and inspection document
  • Packing orientation, dry storage, destination and delivery term

Selection limits

  • Plate is a commercial name here; the product remains thin prepainted sheet unless the ordered standard states otherwise.
  • Bending, cutting and site handling can crack or scratch coatings and require agreed repair practices.
