When selecting galvanized steel for forming operations such as bending, rolling, or stamping, it is important to choose grades that offer both ductility and coating integrity. DX51D+Z and DX52D+Z are commonly used grades with excellent forming properties.
The zinc coating on these steels is designed to adhere firmly during deformation, reducing the risk of flaking or cracking during manufacturing. This makes them suitable for applications in appliances, panels, and automotive components.
For parts that require sharp bends or deep drawing, DX52D+Z is often preferred due to its lower yield strength and higher elongation rate.
