Galvanized steel plate
Are you searching for galvanized steel plates for electrical enclosures in China? You've come to the right place. As a direct factory with 20 years of steel experience, GNEE Steel supplies electrical-grade sheets at factory prices, designed to protect sensitive electrical components from environmental damage and ensure safety. Electrical enclosures play a critical role in safeguarding wiring, switches, and control systems, so our galvanized steel plates are engineered to offer exceptional corrosion resistance, structural integrity, and electromagnetic shielding.
Galvanized steel plate is the ideal material for electrical enclosures due to its unique properties. The zinc coating provides reliable protection against moisture, dust, and corrosion, preventing damage to internal electrical components and ensuring long-term performance. It also offers excellent structural strength, protecting the enclosure from physical impact and deformation. Additionally, steel's inherent electromagnetic shielding properties help reduce interference from external electromagnetic fields, ensuring the proper operation of sensitive electrical equipment. Our top grades for this sector include SGCC, DX51D, Q195, and Q215, selected for their formability, weldability, and protective properties.
Electrical Enclosure Galvanized Steel Plate Specifications
Electrical enclosures require precise dimensions, smooth surfaces, and consistent quality to ensure proper fit and function. Our galvanized steel plates meet these requirements, with tight tolerances and uniform coating quality that minimize post-processing and ensure compatibility with enclosure assembly.
| Thickness (mm) | Width (mm) | Length (mm) | Zinc Coating (g/m²) | Enclosure Type | Surface Finish |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0.6-0.8 | 800-1200 | 1500-2500 | 120-180 | Small control boxes, junction boxes | Smooth, anti-fingerprint |
| 1.0-1.2 | 1000-1500 | 2000-3000 | 180-220 | Medium switchgear, distribution boxes | Smooth, regular spangle |
| 1.5-2.0 | 1200-1800 | 2500-4000 | 220-275 | Large electrical cabinets, control panels | Smooth, regular spangle |
| 2.5-3.0 | 1500-2000 | 3000-6000 | 275 | Heavy-duty industrial enclosures | Regular spangle |
We offer both hot-dip galvanized and electro-galvanized options for electrical enclosures. Electro-galvanized plates are preferred for small, precision enclosures due to their smoother surface finish, while hot-dip galvanized plates are ideal for larger, outdoor enclosures requiring higher corrosion resistance.
Mechanical Properties for Electrical Safety
Electrical enclosures must maintain structural integrity to protect internal components from physical damage, environmental hazards, and tampering. Our galvanized steel plates meet strict mechanical standards to ensure the safety and reliability of the enclosures.
| Grade | Yield Strength (MPa) | Tensile Strength (MPa) | Elongation (%) | Hardness (HB) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SGCC | ≥140 | 270-350 | ≥28 | 85-110 |
| DX51D | ≥140 | 270-350 | ≥28 | 85-110 |
| Q195 | ≥195 | 315-430 | ≥33 | 95-120 |
| Q215 | ≥215 | 335-450 | ≥31 | 100-125 |
These properties ensure the enclosures can withstand handling, transportation, and installation without deformation, and provide reliable protection for electrical components throughout their service life. The plates also offer excellent weldability and formability, allowing for easy fabrication of complex enclosure designs.
Key Benefits for Electrical Enclosure Manufacturers
We understand the unique requirements of the electrical industry, including strict safety standards, precise tolerances, and the need for reliable performance. That's why we offer a range of benefits tailored to electrical enclosure manufacturers:
