What is PPGI

Apr 24, 2023

1. What is PPGI?

 

PPGI, also known as coated galvanized. coated galvanized steel is a steel product made from galvanized steel as the substrate, which undergoes surface pretreatment (degreasing, cleaning, chemical conversion treatment), coating (roller coating method), baking, and cooling.

3. Quality judgment ofPPGI

 

(1) Observe the thickness of the prepainted steel coil 

Color steel plate is composed of substrate and color coating or coating. We first have to consider the thickness of the substrate and the coating, the better color steel plate substrate is 0.02~0.05mm, and the thickness of the coating or coating is often only 0.15mm or less. Because from the perspective of affecting the use time of the color steel plate, the thickness of the substrate is very important.

(2) Observe the thickness of the covering film 

Some manufacturers of coated galvanized steel often do tricks on the substrate and PPGI-coated coil, they reduce the thickness of the substrate, but increase the thickness of the coating to reduce the production cost of the PPGI steel coil, which greatly reduces the service life of the prepainted galvanized steel coil.

(3) Observe the exposed edge of the PPGI color-coated coil 

When I get a prepainted steel coil, I first observe whether the exposed steel of the colored steel coil such as the section is crystal fine, whether it is gray, dark, or impurities. If the cut surface is crystalline and fine-compact, the quality is superior.

(4) Listen to the sound

Use your fingers or hard objects to tap the prepainted galvanized steel coil, if the material of the prepainted galvanized steel coil is poor, the sound emitted is muffled, the metal sound is not obvious, and the metal sound of the colored steel plate with better material is relatively loud and crisp.

(5) Check the quality certificate of the PPGI 

Whether there are inspection standards of relevant departments. If possible, try to visit the manufacturer of the prepainted galvanized steel. See how the environment of the enterprise is and whether it is formal. Ask the market about the reputation of this company.

(6) Look at the price

Anything, you get what you pay for. When we compare the quality of the prepainted galvanized steel, the price is one aspect, but don't pay too much attention to the price. If the price of one color steel plate is much lower than others, then we should pay attention.
