Metal Forming Enhanced Alloy Metallic Coating

MetFloor & Magnelis®


ZM310 / ZM430
Standard MetFloor products are manufactured in galvanised steel in accordance
with BS EN 10346 & BS EN 10143 for continuously hot dipped structural steel
strip. This results in a minimum zinc coating total mass of 275g/m2.
MetFloor profiles can also be manufactured using the ArcelorMittal
Magnelis® Coating. This is generally specified for more demanding or
aggressive C4 and C5 environments and may provide up to ten
times more protection than standard galvanising.

COATING THICKNESS: 25μm


COATING
- METALLICS (ZM310) BS EN 10346
The Magnelis® Coating is a unique metallic steel coating that is used in a range
C (E-Passivation® of applications and offers long-term surface protection and highly effective
SURFACE TREATMENT corrosion resistance. Magnelis® ZM310 provides 310g/m2 of coating mass which
CrVI-free, O (oiled))
equates to a thickness of 25μm (micron) per side. The unique composition
TYPICAL STEEL GRADES contains 3.5% aluminium and 3% magnesium. The Magnesium content ensures
S350GD + ZM
AVAILABLE FROM CMF a stable and durable protective layer, with excellent self-healing properties.

LIFESPAN
The expected life time provided by ArcelorMittal Magnelis® is the estimated duration of effective protection of the steel substrate.
The following table displays the estimated life time based on ArcelorMittal’s extensive accelerated tests:

Lifespan
Application / Category Guarantee
ZM310 ZM430
C3 Exterior: urban inland or mild coastal > 60 years > 80 years Guarantees are
dependent upon
C4 Exterior: industrial inland or urban coastal > 40 years > 55 years location and
C5 Exterior: high salinity coastal (>300m from sea) > 35 years > 50 years environmental
category,
C3 Interior: moderate condensation and/or pollution e.g. food processing, laundry, brewery > 45 years > 65 years provided on a
project by project
C4 Interior: high frequency condensation and/or pollution e.g. swimming pools, fabric factory > 30 years > 40 years basis.
NB: Lifespans may vary with project location and usage – must be confirmed per project
When used in more corrosive environments, such as car park structures, additional steps to ensure adequate waterproofing, drainage and crack mitigation must be taken.

WELDING
Due to access for coating repair being impractical to the underside of decking at beam locations, Magnelis® is considered as not suitable
for through deck stud welding. CMF recommend single span decking with pre-studded beams for Magnelis® applications.
