Sheet/coated products

When it comes to developing materials, products and technologies, ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe sets the pace. Continuous technical progress through product innovations and quality improvements allows us to differentiate ourselves from the competition.

A particular focus is on steels for reducing weight in auto manufacture. ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe has set world standards in this area with the development of advanced high-strength multi-phase steels. In contrast to conventional high-strength steels they offer good formability and very high strength, making it possible to reduce sheet thickness significantly and achieve major weight reductions. But we are also working to improve conventional steels. One example of this are our hot-rolled microalloyed steels with cold performance properties. Compared with cold-rolled microalloyed steels they offer, among other things, a narrower spread of mechanical properties, good thickness tolerances and improved surface features to further increase the good production reliability of microalloyed steels.

More than 80% of ThyssenKrupp’s cold-rolled steel output is coated. The requirements are increasing all the time. The trend is towards thinner coatings with improved anti-corrosion properties.

With over 20 coating facilities, ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG covers the full spectrum of metallic and organic coatings for a wide variety of applications. In addition to hot-dip coated products, some of the facilities are also designed for zinc-iron (galvannealed) coatings. Our hot-dip aluminized sheet offers outstanding elevated-temperature resistance. The coating variants GALFAN® and GALVALUME® combine different zinc-aluminum alloys which are used in particular in the construction and appliance industries.

The double galvanized Agozal DoubleDip® steel strip also offers excellent corrosion protection through high coating thicknesses. For this reason it has for example also been approved for use in steel crash barrier beams by the German Federal Ministry of Transport, Building and Urban Affairs (BMVBS).

ZM EcoProtect zinc-magnesium coatings are an innovation. They offer a cost-effective alternative to products with heavy zinc coatings. Compared with conventional hot-dipped zinc coatings, ZM EcoProtect offers equivalent corrosion protection with a reduced zinc coating weight. ZM EcoProtect is ideal for corrosion-critical body parts and will be available for many steel grades.

For special applications ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe operates a narrow strip galvanizing line.

Coils with pure zinc or zinc-nickel alloy coatings can be produced on six electrolytic coating lines. The electrolytically applied zinc coating protects the steel sheet against corrosion and provides good lacquer adhesion with the standard surface treatments. Combined with an organic thin film coating – a so-called weldable Corrosion Protection Primer (CPP) – electrolytic zinc coatings represent a new product with twice the protective effect.

ThyssenKrupp Steel Europe AG’s effective quality management system ensures outstanding production and product quality in accordance with the strictest international standards.
