Aluzinc Steel

Hot dipped alloy coating, composed of 55% aluminium, 43.4% zinc and 1.6% silicon.

Aluzinc is between 6 and 20 times more corrosion resistant than normal galvanised and is particularly good in salt laden, acidic and polluted atmospheres. It has excellent heat resistance and will not change appearance until beyond 315 degrees centigrade.
