Corrosion creep Surface corrosion (at topsoil zone)

Erosive loss Poor quality of galvanizing

2. Rules and Standards

EN ISO 1461 (hot dip galvanized)

DIN 55928-8

7. Corrugated zones, cross sections, edges, fasteners

7.1 Corrugated zones

The required corrosion protection must also be ensured incorrugated zones.

7.2 Cross sections and edges

(1) Cross sections should be at right angles to the sheet metalsurface and without burr. When cutting and processing coatedcomponents, procedures are to chosen that do not affect theprotective effect against corrosion (for example by peeling off,sparks, burns). The gap of the cutting tool is to be set diligently.

(2) Experience has shown that the cross sections and edges ofstrip-galvanized and strip-alloy-galvanized metal sheets with athickness up to 1.5 mm do not need any extra corrosionprotection.

Rules for planning

• undamaged, evenly distributed coating• no permanent dirt accumulation• no constant contact with soil or permanently moist areas

Cut areas across the cross-section of sheets up to 1.5 mm thick may remain unprotected. Forsheets with the Magnelis® ZM250, Magnelis® ZM310 and Magnelis® ZM430 coatings, this alsoapplies to thicknesses of up to 3 mm, provided that there are no requirements regarding opticalchanges.
