Updated Galvanized G90 Mill Coating Extras Comparison
Written by John Packard
March 16, 2017
Steel Market Update received information from the last couple of mills missing from our galvanized coating extras analysis and we wanted to make sure that everyone gets to see the finished product. This analysis is also on our website and can be found under the Resources tab (Resources > Steel Mills > Galvanized > Coating Extras Comparison).
The West Coast mills continue to have an advantage over the Eastern USA mills when it comes to light gauge extras in particular.
Again, the table below is always available on our website in the menu system under Resources > Steel Mills > Galvanized > Coating Extras Comparison. In that same Galvanized section, we have individual pages for each mill with their full coating and width and thickness extras listed, as well as their previous coating extras.
