The hot-dip galvanized steel HX180YD in accordance with the EN 10346 standard is a highly developed thin sheet material that has been specially designed for demanding cold forming processes. With the material number 1.0921, HX180YD belongs to the group of Y-steels without intercalated intermediate atoms. A strictly controlled alloy composition minimizes unwanted inclusions and atomic dislocations. This leads to significantly improved flow properties, which are reflected in particular in optimized r-values (plastic anisotropy) and n-values (strain hardening exponent). The hot-dip galvanized surface coating also guarantees long-lasting corrosion protection. The coating variants +Z, +ZF, +ZA, +ZM, +AZ and +AS are available, enabling specific adaptation to different environmental conditions and processing methods.

HX180YD is characterized by an outstanding combination of the following features:

Hot-dip galvanizing in accordance with EN 10346: The zinc coating protects the base material against corrosion.

In addition, HX180YD offers a homogeneous microstructure, good weldability and precise dimensional accuracy, which ensures reliable further processing in cutting, bending and welding processes.

Due to its excellent forming properties and robust corrosion protection, HX180YD is widely used in various branches of industry:

Thanks to its “Y” steel technology, the hot-dip galvanized steel HX180YD in accordance with EN 10346 combines outstanding formability with long-lasting corrosion protection. Improved r- and n-values ensure uniform flow behavior, high deformation reserves and a reduced risk of surface defects. The wide range of coating variants enables precise adaptation to environmental conditions from moderate to extreme. HX180YD is therefore the ideal choice for companies that place the highest demands on the precision, surface quality and durability of their cold-formed sheet metal components.
