Common Uses
Galvanised steel sheet is used for construction panels, cladding, ducting, agricultural repairs, trailer work, garden structures, workshop fabrication, protective covers, roofing details, enclosures, gates and general sheet metal projects. It is the standard choice where untreated mild steel would need additional rust protection.
Zinc Coated Finish
These sheets are hot-dip galvanised with a DX51D zinc coating to protect against rust and weathering. The surface may show normal zinc spangle patterning, handling marks or slight visual variation, which is typical of galvanised steel. Cut edges or drilled holes expose bare steel and should be protected with a zinc-rich paint or coating for long-term corrosion resistance.
Galvanised Sheet vs Mild Steel Sheet
Galvanised steel sheet has a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor and exposed applications without additional painting. Mild steel sheet is supplied in untreated mill finish and is better suited to indoor fabrication or work that will be painted or enclosed. For damp, outdoor or exposed environments, galvanised is the more appropriate choice.
Cutting and Fabrication
Galvanised steel sheet can be cut, drilled, folded and fabricated using standard metalworking tools. When welding, grinding or heating galvanised steel, correct ventilation and safety precautions are essential because fumes from the zinc coating can be hazardous.
Delivery Information

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What thicknesses is the 2m x 1m galvanised sheet available in?
The 2m x 1m galvanised steel sheet is available in 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 2mm and 3mm. All sheets are supplied in DX51D grade with a hot-dip zinc coating.
What grade is your galvanised steel sheet?
Our galvanised steel sheet is supplied in DX51D grade to EN 10346, hot-dip zinc coated for corrosion resistance. DX51D is the standard grade for galvanised sheet steel, suitable for cladding, ducting, fabrication and general construction in both indoor and outdoor environments.
How much does a 2m x 1m galvanised sheet weigh?
Weight depends on thickness. A 2000 x 1000mm galvanised sheet weighs approximately 12.6 kg at 0.8mm, rising to approximately 47.1 kg at 3mm.
What is the difference between galvanised and mild steel sheet?
Galvanised steel sheet has a zinc coating that resists corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor and exposed use without additional painting. Mild steel sheet is supplied in untreated mill finish, better suited to indoor fabrication or work that will be painted or enclosed. For damp or outdoor environments, galvanised is the more appropriate choice.
Can galvanised steel sheet be cut and welded?
Yes - galvanised steel sheet can be cut, drilled, folded and fabricated using standard metalworking tools. When welding, grinding or heating it, correct ventilation and safety precautions are essential as fumes from the zinc coating can be hazardous. Cut edges should be protected with zinc-rich paint for long-term corrosion resistance.
What are the delivery lead times for galvanised steel sheet?
Lead times are currently 3-5 working days for mainland UK, with a maximum of 10 working days to remote areas. Mainland UK delivery only. Sheets are heavy items - please ensure suitable access is available for delivery.
