SSAB Form PLX blends tradition with innovation

SSAB Form PLX is a sheet metal hot-dip galvanized with Galfan (ZA). The product was specially developed by SSAB to provide optimal corrosion properties without the need for painting. It was chosen by Rosendals Trädgårdar as an environmentally-correct roof and façade material for their new café and restaurant buildings.

 

SSAB Form designed for maximum productivity

SSAB Form is designed to give maximum productivity in stamping, stretching, deep drawing, roll forming, bending, metal spinning and other cold forming procedures, particularly in production that requires exact and consistent properties.

Always predictable performance

Since the steel is so clean and has consistent chemical composition, it works equally well in all standard production methods. The consistency together with narrow dimensional tolerances will give you predictable performance in the workshop every time. 

Whether you are forming, bending, machining, or welding, SSAB Form provides a more cost-effective production, higher yield, and a quality of the end-product that meets or exceeds your customers’ high expectations.

Typical applications for SSAB Form are pulleys, consoles, drawn cylinders, ball bearing cages, wheel rims, cabinets, tubular structures, special hoods and decorative shutters with special shapes.

SSAB Form grade, shape and delivery condition optimized to suit your needs

SSAB Form metal-coated strip products are developed for highly demanding customers that need excellent cold forming properties combined with galvanic corrosion protection. These grades have better guarantees than standard for elongation. Enhanced corrosion protection for both non-painted and painted applications is offered by galfan and galvannealed coatings, respectively.

SSAB Form tubes come with a unique combination of strength, material properties, formability, narrow tolerances, and surface quality. Outstanding elongation properties help you to reduce manufacturing costs in the tube forming process.

Delivered as you like it

SSAB Form comes in a wide range of grades, making it easier for you to optimize your production and the performance of the final product. SSAB Form is delivered as hot rolled strip, cold rolled strip, metal-coated grades, and tubes. Delivery condition can be with or without anti-corrosion surface protection.

SSAB Form metal-coated grades for corrosion resistance are available with zinc, galfan, and galvannealed coatings. Zinc coating by hot-dip galvanizing up to 42 μm on both sides can give service life of up to 80 years. Galfan grades give excellent corrosion resistance, weldability, and formability with a thinner 7-23 μm zinc-aluminum coating. Galvannealed grades have a 6-10 μm zinc-iron alloy-coating ideal for spot welding and high-end painting applications.

Many grades to choose from

You can order a wide range of plates, tubes and sections of SSAB Form from our stock network or straight from mill. Smaller volumes are also available to suit your production and storage capacity.
