1.what is galvanized coil used for?
In the United States, galvanized coil is very widely used, our sales of galvanized coil in the United States has been the first.
Galvanized coil products are mainly used in construction, light industry, automobile, agriculture, animal husbandry, fishery and commercial industries. The construction industry is mainly used for manufacturing anti-corrosion industrial and civil building roof panels, roof grilles, etc. The light industry uses it to manufacture home appliance shells, civil chimneys, kitchen utensils, etc., and the automobile industry mainly uses it to manufacture corrosion-resistant parts of cars, etc. Agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery are mainly used as food storage and transportation, frozen processing tools for meat and aquatic products, etc. Commercial mainly used as materials storage and transportation, packaging appliances.
2.What is the specification of galvanized steel coil?
Galvanized coil common specifications are:
Thickness : 0.14-1.2 mm

4.Market development of galvanized steel coil in USA
The United States galvanized sheet volume production reached the maximum demand. Although the Production of hot dip galvanized sheet in the United States is greatly reduced, but the demand is considerable. The metal bulletin research "(hereinafter referred to as the MBR), points out that the United States imported galvanized coil supply share increase gradually, which helps the local galvanized coil spot market prices rose to 910USD to 930USD a tonne, 0.5 mm thickness, the galvanized layer of 275 grams per square metre of galvanized coil offer up to 940USD to 980USD per ton; Zinc-coated coils, which are thinner and have a shinier coating, rose by 1,000USD a ton to 1,105USD. MBR pointed out that all steel mills should be prepared for a long-term surge in demand as end-user operations become more active as a result of the growing U.S. economy. In the short and medium term, the above measures will greatly increase the demand for galvanized sheet coil for construction and automobile.
