The most prominent advantage of electrogalvanized steel strip made by voestalpine is its uniform surface quality. It also provides a high level of corrosion protection and excellent processing properties. This property profile makes the product ideally suited to exposed panels as well as interior components with the highest quality requirements.

  • Highly uniform surface and layer quality for excellent processing results even in exposed panel quality
  • Excellent formability even under extreme deep-drawing stress 
  • Optimal joinability with excellent spot welding and laser welding properties 
  • Extended functionality with additional options such as inline phosphating and Cr‑VI-free passivation 

From sophisticated visible parts to high-performance structural components 

The precisely controllable zinc coating and excellent surface quality make electrogalvanized steel strip the ideal solution for components with high requirements in the areas of corrosion protection and processability. The material is used in the automotive industry in roofs, doors, A and B pillars or sills), in the domestic industry in HVAC systems as well as in tube and section production.Electrogalvanized steel strip is also available as a one-side galvanized version for special applications.

Premium for exposed panel quality

Electrogalvanized steel strip made by voestalpine meets the highest surface requirements that are crucial for exposed body parts. The highly uniform application of the zinc layer creates a homogeneous surface that is ideally suited for downstream processes such as painting, joining and forming. The result: Components with excellent appearance and adhesion with a minimum of postprocessing—ideal exposed panel properties in every detail. 

Highest strength

Electrogalvanized steel strip made by voestalpine stands for innovation with the highest strength available in modern DP, CP and FH grades, some of which feature high ductility and outstanding formability. Tensile strengths up to 1,180 MPa—ideal for demanding structural components Electrogalvanized MS1500, a martensitic steel with 1,500 MPa that sets new standards in lightweight design. 

Excellent formability

The special forming quality of the material withstands extreme deep-drawing stress. Additionally, the adhesive tendency of electrogalvanized steel strip is significantly lower than that of conventional hot-dip galvanized surfaces.

Typical applications

  • Large exposed panels in car body design
  • Oil-filter cartridges

Excellent joinability

Thanks to its excellent spot welding and laser brazing properties, electrogalvanized steel strip is ideally suited for joining and leads to significantly lower electrode wear than conventional hot-dip galvanized surfaces.

Typical applications

  • Back hatches
  • Roof and roof attachments
  • Side wall frames

Functional surfaces

Electrogalvanized steel strip can be supplied with a variety of functional surfaces that further optimize the material.

Looking for the lightweight automotive design of tomorrow?

The automotive industry is undergoing unprecedented change. Technological developments are progressing at an enormous pace. The demands on efficiency and safety are enormous and are being completely redefined in ever shorter periods of time. In this highly innovative environment, anyone who believes that today's solutions must be valid tomorrow will be proven wrong by the competition. voestalpine is working now on the solutions of tomorrow. Whether for crash components, exposed panels that meet the highest surface requirements or body-in-white components, voestalpine provides the best solution for every demand of the automotive and automotive supplier industries. That is why leading OEMs and automotive component suppliers place their trust in voestalpine.

Let your ideas fly! That's ultralights

Transforming ideas into lighter, stronger and more corrosion-resistant components. That is the credo of ultralights made by voestalpine. The ultralights made by voestalpine offer a comprehensive range of steels for lightweight automotive design, from advanced high-strength steels (ahss) for cold forming to innovative solutions for the hot forming of galvanized press-hardening steels (phs). That is how voestalpine pushes the limits of what is efficiently feasible in the automotive industry.

Lightweight AND crash-safe!

Weight reduction is a central objective in the automotive industry. Less weight results in advantages in performance and efficiency. But does reduced weight also mean less stability? Results from the voestalpine crash simulator prove otherwise. This is where the high-strength and innovative car body steels of voestalpine are tested to the limit so they can be used in demanding applications, even in the most extreme cases. The results speak for themselves. The progressive buckling behavior and energy absorption values are excellent in spite of the light weight of the material.

Who's Stella?

Stella Sustainable is a testimonial to the sustainable future of the automotive industry. Holistic corporate social responsibility (CSR) is of particular importance to voestalpine. There are many other issues in addition to climate protection, future steel production, ecological logistics and transparent supply chains. Because we care. Stella stands for a vision of the future in which mobility and the environment do not contradict each other.

Ready for a new Xperience?

The ahss high-ductility, complex-phase steel CP1400HD made by voestalpine redefines the limits of what is feasible in lightweight automotive design. Impressive formability and light weight in a strength class of 1400 MPa. The next level of cold forming.

Electrical steel for the drive

In addition to lightweight design and safety, the need for highly efficient electrical steel for rotors and stators in the drive train is becoming increasingly important in electromobility. There are already more than 100 electric motors installed in conventional cars. New drive motors present the industry with completely new challenges. isovac® is the electrical steel made by voestalpine and meets the challenges of highest energy efficiency.

corrender is convincing throughout the entire car body, even in exposed panels.

The performance of corrender can be applied throughout the entire car body. corrender optimizes every structural or internal component, including those that are forming-critical or highly corrosive. The potential savings in the corrender metallic surface coating offers greater corrosion protection when compared with classic galvanized steel strip.
