Magnelis® can be used in numerous industrial applications, such as:

Solar energy generation: structures for photovoltaic and thermal solar plants

Construction: structural or non-structural profiles, roofing & cladding, decking, cable trays, expanded metal, gratings, composite flooring, concrete moulds

Road and railway infrastructure: safety barriers, protection equipment, sound insulation wall panels, walls providing protection against hail

Agriculture and farming: barns, greenhouse structures, agricultural equipment

Tubular applications: structural tubes for scaffolding, road signals, poles

Magnelis® is approved for use in Civil Construction by different national bodies:

Germany: DIBt Z-30.11-51 for Magnelis®

France: ETPM for Magnelis® by CSTB

Sweden: Technical Approval no. SC0559-13 for Magnelis®

If, by agreement at the time of enquiry and order, other chemical elements are added, they shall be mentioned on the inspection document which may need a change of classification.

Storage

Magnelis® is supplied passivated and/or oiled to temporarily limit any risk of white rust formation. During transport and storage, all necessary precautions must be taken to keep the material dry and to prevent the formation of condensation.

The forming techniques currently used for galvanised steel are also suitable for Magnelis®. Magnelis® behaves very well during profiling operations. The coating thickness must be compatible with both the desired degree of corrosion protection and the requirements of the forming processes envisaged. A minimum bending radius of 2x sheet thickness is recommended.

In resistance spot welding, the welding current must be suitably regulated and regularly adjusted. Electrode life can be extended by regularly stepping up the welding current and periodically dressing (machining) the electrodes. The coating thickness must be compatible with both the desired degree of corrosion protection and the requirements of the welding processes envisaged. Magnelis® can be arc welded, laser welded, brazed or high frequency induction welded, taking the same precautions as with galvanised steel. For use in outdoor applications a reprotection of the weld seams from arc welding and high frequency induction welding is recommended.
