DC03 – Cold rolled steel
DC03, when electrolytically galvanized in accordance with DIN EN 10152, is given an additional corrosion protection layer of zinc. This layer protects the material from oxidative influences and significantly increases the service life of the components made from it. The zinc coating can be applied in various thicknesses, depending on the specific requirements of the application. Typical coating thicknesses range from 5 to 20 µm.
The use of DC03 in accordance with DIN EN 10152 is widespread in the automotive industry, in the construction industry and in the manufacture of household appliances, where improved corrosion resistance is required in addition to high formability. Electrolytic galvanizing offers optimum protection here without impairing the excellent mechanical properties of the base material.
It can be said that the deep-drawing grade DC03 offers a wide range of applications in accordance with both DIN EN 10130 and DIN EN 10152. While DIN EN 10130 focuses on high formability and surface quality, DIN EN 10152 supplements these properties with improved corrosion resistance thanks to the zinc coating. Both standards ensure that DC03 is a reliable and high-quality material for numerous industrial applications.
