Why Should Use Colored Stainless Steel Sheets Instead of Traditional Prepainted Steel Coil

Many people may confound colored stainless steel sheets with traditional prepainted steel coil or just don’t know which one to choose. A miss is as good as a mile, especially in the building materials industry. Tiny differences in raw materials and manufacturing technique can make a huge difference in the properties of products.

As long as the budget is adequate, you should always choose colored stainless steel sheets. Here are the advantages of it when compares to traditional prepainted steel coil:

1.Better Corrosion Resistance and Weather Resistance

Good corrosion resistance of colored stainless steel sheet is derived from its high quality zinc galvanized or Al-Zn galvanized aluminum basal plate. This kind of basal plate is different from the cold-rolled steel sheet which used as the basal plate of traditional prepainted steel coil. Colored stainless steel sheet has better resistance to the corrosion of acid, alkaline and other contaminants because of the protection of zinc and aluminum oxide layers. Any small scratch can be fatal to the cold-rolled steel, as once a scratch occurs, the steel would directly be exposed to the air and soon react with oxygen to form red rust. Moreover, compares with the zinc coating, Al-Zn coating has an additional excellent high temperature performance.

2.More Durable Glossiness and Excellent Decorative Appearance

The surface hardness and ductility of colored stainless steel sheet are stronger than that of traditional prepainted steel coil due to the difference between their basal plate and the coating technique. The coating of colored stainless steel sheet can resist scratches, friction, collision, extrusion and other mechanical effects. It will not crack or drop down even when the deformation occurs. However, adhesion of coating of traditional prepainted steel coil is relatively poor, and is usually easy to peel off after aging.

Nowadays, the crafts of producing colored stainless steel sheet are still upgrading ceaselessly. Mould proof, anti-microbial and anti-static coatings have been developed and came into use, as well as self-cleaning coating. From the perspective of pattern and color, many fashionable new colors have been created. Wood grain, camouflage color and brick grain are popular patterns on the market.

3.Wider Range of Application

Colored stainless steel sheet has better properties than traditional prepainted steel coil in all aspects. That extends their applied range and is helpful to occupy market share.

In the early years, colored stainless steel sheets were mainly used in construction sites, and have now been widely used into civil architecture and manufacturing industry. Many kiosks, telephone booths, roofs, outer walls and even balconies are made of colored stainless steel sheets. They are also the raw canning materials of refrigerators, washing machines and other mechanical and electrical products.

4.Proven Technique and Stable Quality

After years of development, colored stainless steel sheet has been translate from a new building material into a widely used one. The production technology of it has also grown up mature. Many manufacturers have well-equipped plants and production lines, and some of them also have the ability to develop new products and provide customized services. Meanwhile, decades of production experience ensures the stable production quality. Clients do not have to worry about the risk of defective goods.
