Folastal Stroncoat^®

Stroncoat^®, a newly developed hot-dipped coating for steel products, provides ultimate corrosion protection properties that add up to a high performance coating for all applications where zinc-plated steel is essential.

• Stroncoat^® consists of zinc and small fractions of magnesium (1-2%) and aluminum (1 to 2%). Stroncoat^® offers extraordinary corrosion protection with coating layers of constant properties and reduced thickness by comparison with standard hot-dip galvanized layers (Z). Salt spray tests returned a corrosion resistance two to six times higher by comparison with standard zinc coating.
• Stroncoat^® impresses with convincing, superior varnish adhesion.
• Stroncoat^® offers improved cutting edge protection.
• Thanks to its special resistance against corrosion, the protective effect achieved with this anticorrosive plating is significantly higher than the protection produced by standard products.
• Stroncoat^® offers tremendous resource saving potential thanks to the zinc savings achieved. Our latest product developments make a substantial, sustained contribution to environmental protection.

The product combines the positive properties of the Folastal^® organic surface coating with the extraordinary corrosion protection of Stroncoat^®.

• The composite material benefits from the improved metallic substrate material.
• Organic coating can consist of synthetic-resin varnish or plastic dispersions. The product range is rounded off by decorative or protective foil coatings.
• Folastal Stroncoat^® varnish and foil coatings provide properties that are tailored to meet the requirements of all central fields of applications.
• The Folastal Stroncoat^® coating system is approved by DIBt for applications in light-weight steel construction. Folastal Stroncoat^® meets requirements in accordance with corrosion protection class KIII to DIN 55928-8. (Applies to coating systems with a minimum zinc plating (ZM) density of 140 g/m² and a varnish layer thickness of 25 µm.)
