Galvanized Corrugated Roof Sheet Product Overview
Galvanized corrugated roof sheets are zinc-coated steel panels featuring wave/trapezoidal patterns that enhance structural strength. With 60-275g/m² zinc layers (hot-dip or electroplated), these sheets prevent rust while maintaining 0.12-6mm thickness for versatile applications from barns to commercial complexes.

Maintenance Tips
- Annual Inspection: Check fastener tightness after first winter
- Cleaning: Soft brush + pH-neutral detergent (avoid abrasives)
- Repairs: Apply zinc-rich paint (≥94% Zn) to scratches
Why Choose Corrugated Sheets?
Compared to standing seam roofs, corrugated panels offer 40% lower material costs while providing equal wind resistance. The ribbed design increases load capacity to 1.5kN/m² (EN 1991-1-3 snow load standard).
Industry Fact: Over 60% of Australian farm buildings use Z275-grade corrugated roofing due to its hail resistance (AS 4046 Class 4).
Global Standards Cross-Reference:
Standard | Equivalent Grades |
---|---|
ASTM A653 | DX51D (US), SGCC (JP) |
EN 10346 | S320GD (EU), SGC490 (AS) |
JIS G3302 | SGCD4 (Asia), Z450 (Oceania) |
Hot-Dip vs Electro-Galvanized:
- Hot-Dip: Thicker coating (Z275), better edge protection
- Electro: Smoother surface (Z60), ideal for pre-painting
