Optimising manufacturing and in-use performance
Our metallic coated products are engineered for manufacturing reliability and in-use safety performance. Our product line provides opportunities to meet application-specific requirements. It comprises:
We offer zinc coating (Z/GI) and Magizinc®, a zinc-magnesium coating. MagiZinc delivers improved corrosion resistance with up to half the thickness of a conventional zinc coating. The thinner, lighter coating means increased yield per tonne of steel.
Grades
Metallic coated grades include advanced high-strength steels, high-strength steels, structural steels and grades for forming.
Coatings
Three types of metallic coating are available:
Pure zinc
Galvanized steel (+Z) is coated with an almost pure zinc coating (>99% zinc).
MagiZinc
MagiZinc steel (+ZM) is coated with a zinc coating containing
additional magnesium and aluminium.

Steel for forming
Our cold-rolled forming steels are available in a wide range of grades and corrosion-resistant coatings. Each grade is designed for specific applications and comes with a choice of surface quality. Extensive dimensional choice provides opportunities for cutting waste and maximizing yield.
MagiZinc® improves corrosion resistance with half the thickness of conventional zinc coatings, increasing yield, reducing cost and facilitating stronger, lighter products. It offers improved automotive corrosion protection and higher process efficiency.
Applications
EN_US-Product-Metallic Coated-HSS TSUK
High-strength steel
Our range of metallic coated high-strength steels includes micro-alloyed and bake-hardening grades. Available with various corrosion-resistant coatings, they are ideal for applications requiring strength without a weight penalty. Magizinc® coatings improve press shop yields, enable reduced coating thickness and optimise weight savings.
Applications
- Automotive components
- Tubes
EN_US-Product-Metallic Coated-AHSS TSUK
AHSS
Dual-phase steels are an AHSS steel that combine high yield strength with good ductility – ensuring excellent fatigue properties and energy absorption.
For example our DP800-UC is a dual phase steel with a strength of approximately 800 MPa and a formability that makes it suitable for light deep drawn or crash formed components. The material is often used for body-in-white structural and reinforcement components like pillar reinforcements and crash structures as well as for light weight seating components.
EN_US-Product-Metallic Coated-Structural steel TSUK
Structural steel
Tata Steel’s metallic coated structural steel is suitable for a wide range of applications.
For exceptionally demanding applications, our choice of grades includes products that exceed the minimum strength levels specified in the national standards. MagiZinc® improves corrosion resistance with half the thickness of conventional zinc coatings, increasing yield, reducing cost and facilitating stronger, lighter products.
Applications
- Agricultural components
- Building components
- Domestic appliances
- Furniture
