Product Details
Z-section steel is a type of continuously hot-dip galvanized or weather-resistant structural steel component produced through a cold-forming process. It gets its name from its Z-shaped cross-section. It is widely used in steel structure buildings for purlins, wall beams, enclosure systems, and load-bearing connectors, and is particularly suitable for large-span, lightweight steel structure industrial and civil buildings.
Features of Z-section steel
Optimized Cross-Section, High Load-Bearing Capacity
The unique asymmetrical cross-section of Z-section steel allows for a reasonable stress distribution across the continuous span when used in lap joints. Its bending stiffness is superior to C-section steel of the same thickness, making it especially suitable for large-span roof and wall systems.
Overlapping Joints, Adaptable to Slopes and Loads
Continuous overlaps can be achieved by rotating 180°, effectively transferring bending moments and reducing the number of connectors required. It can also adapt to changes in roof slope and uneven loads, resulting in better overall structural integrity.
Diverse Materials and Coatings, Meeting Global Standards
Available with Q235B, Q355B, S280GD, S350GD, and S450GD steels (compliant with international standards such as EN 10346 and ASTM A653), with galvanized layer thicknesses ranging from Z100 to Z275. Aluminum-zinc (AZ) coatings or anti-corrosion coatings are also available to meet service life requirements in various corrosive environments (C3–C5).
Flexible Processing and Strong Compatibility
Pre-fabrication of openings, corners, and stiffening ribs can be done in the factory according to design drawings, allowing for rapid installation with self-tapping screws and bolts. A complete set of accessories, including tie rods, struts, and connecting plates, simplifies on-site construction.
Lightweight, Cost Reduction and Efficiency Improvement
Cold bending forming process fully utilizes material strength, resulting in lower steel consumption under the same load conditions compared to traditional hot-rolled steel sections. The lightweight nature reduces foundation and transportation costs, and convenient installation significantly shortens the construction period.
Applications of Z-shaped steel
- Roof purlins and wall purlins for steel structure factories, warehouses, and logistics centers;
- Lateral bracing for large-span light steel buildings, prefabricated houses, and frame infill walls;
- Enclosure structures for agricultural greenhouses, farms, exhibition halls, and sports stadiums;
- Load-bearing components for solar photovoltaic support systems.
