U.S. Steel Announces Coated Steel Designed to Withstand Harsh Conditions

United States Steel Corporation (U.S. Steel) (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA) announced the roll out of ZMAG coated steel, a new carbon flat rolled coated steel product. Engineered to be stronger, more resilient, and more sustainable than existing products on the market today, ZMAG steel rises to the challenge of the world’s harshest conditions and introduces a new level of reliability and durability for the solar, automotive, and construction industries. 

ZMAG steel features a zinc-aluminum-magnesium coating that offers up to five times the corrosion resistance of conventional galvanized steel. ZMAG coated steel also remains reliable over time, lowering maintenance costs and increasing efficiency for products that must withstand long-term exposure to the elements, like solar frames and racking systems. Melted and manufactured in the U.S. and coated at PRO-TEC in Ohio, ZMAG coated steel avoids uncertainties of imported materials by being 100% domestically produced. 

“In today’s industrial landscape, the need for materials that can withstand harsh and corrosive environments is more critical than ever,” says James Bruno, senior vice president – business development and president – U.S. Steel Kosice. “Whether it’s rain, sleet, or snow, ZMAG coated steel has the toughness to ensure products are built to last. With a production process that reduces waste, along with unmatched longevity, ZMAC steel also represents U.S. Steel’s commitment to reducing its environmental impact.” 

In addition to improved strength and flexibility, U.S. Steel is offering an exclusive 25-year warranty on ZMAG coated steel.
