CAS- Chemical Abstract Service
• All commercial steel products contain small amounts of various elements in addition to those listed. These small amounts are
frequently referred to as “trace” or “residual” elements that generally originate in the raw materials used. Steel products may contain the
following trace elements: aluminum (0.01 – 0.5), boron (< 0.005 max, typically 0.001%), calcium (<0.005 max typically 0.0003%), carbon
(.06max), chromium (0.7 max), columbium (<0.15 max, typically 0.002%), copper (0.4 max), molybdenum (< 0.4 max typically 0.006%),
phosphorous (< 0.1 max typically 0.01%), sulfur (<0.04 max, typically, 0.007%), Tin (<0.03 max, typically 0.002%), titanium (< 0.15 max, typically
0.002%) and vanadium (< 0.15 max, typically 0.001%). Other trace elements not frequently identified, may include antimony, arsenic, cadmium,
cobalt, lead, and zirconium.
• Product surfaces may be treated with small amounts of corrosion-inhibiting oil that may contain mineral oil or petroleum distillates, or
paints, generally applied at the customers request. Refer to the coating manufacture’s SDS for hazards associated with the coatings. Refer to the
following table for additional information.

1. Refer to product specification for coating applicability
2. Percentages are expressed as typical ranges or maximum concentrations of trace elements in the coating. For the purpose of
communicating the potential hazards of the finished product. Consult product specifications for specific composition information.
3. Galvalume coated steel is steel that is plated on one or both sides with 55% Aluminum, min. 40% Zinc Alloy coating. The balance is a
mixture of silicon and potentially the trace elements found in steel produces. See Section 2 Notes.
4. In addition to trace elements, as stated in Section 2 Notes, the balance of the Galvanneal coating is alloyed Iron from the base metal.
5. Zincroplex® coated steel is steel that is coated on one or both sides with zinc or zinc alloy coating (such as electrogalvanized, hot dip
galvanized, or galvanealed steel), followed by the application (on one side) of coatings of Dacromet® III (an inorganic zinc dust/chromic
oxide coating) and Zincromet® SPX (an organic coating containing zinc dust). For more information on Zincroplex® coating. See
product MSDS: Zincroplex® Manufacturer: Metal Coatings International.
6. Zincrometal® coated stell is steel that is coated with Zincrometal® SL (an inorganic zinc dust/ chromic oxide coating followed by an
organic coating containing zinc dust). For more information on coating see. See product MSDS: Zincrometal®SL. Manufacturer: Metal
Coatings International.
7. The coating consist of a mixture of crystalline and amorphous forms of Phosphophylite and Hopeite
