ARTAZN™ Supplies For
Electrical Shielding
Zinc is an optimal solution for both EMI-RFI shielding. Because of Zinc’s density, it can protect the important cores of electric products ensuring that they are not disrupted by electronic waves. ARTAZN™’s Zinc Strip can be plated for added protection.
Electrical Grounding
ARTAZN™’s zinc strips in coil form can be used for grounding applications. The electrical conductivity of zinc with the high surface area of the strip provide the required grounding to ensure structures such as electrical lines do not retain destructive charge. Zinc is a more economic substitute for grounding metals such as copper.
Sound Abatement
Zinc’s density helps with sound abatement, which makes it an ideal alternative to lead- a known toxic metal. Our zinc strip can be plated for added corrosion protection and aesthetic finish.
Consumer Goods
ARTAZN™ offers a low-lead, high-grade zinc alloy strip that is used for pharmaceutical grade applications due to its high purity. Applications include zinc oxide used in sunscreens, beauty products, and paints. Made in the USA and with over 100 years of experience producing zinc strip, ARTAZN™ has a reputation for producing high quality product.
Fasteners
Our Alloy 190 zinc strip has been used in fasteners such as grommets, washers and zippers. Zinc has excellent formability for these applications and lasts longer than steel because of its anti-corrosion properties. It is more cost-effective than similar metals such as stainless steel and brass.
Signs and Plaques
Zinc is used for both indoor and outdoor signs and plaques. Zinc is a durable, cost-effective metal that allows deep etching, intricate details and a range of different finishes.
Medals
Zinc’s formability and ductility enables intricate designs and deep impressions making it ideal for medals. Zinc can be plated in various finishes to obtain the desire aesthetic appeal.
Braille
In order to stamp braille onto paper pages, zinc plates are used. Zinc is easy to form and is ductile, allowing it to be rolled thin. The cost-effectiveness of zinc also makes it the preferred metal for this application.
Organ Pipes
Historically zinc has been one of the more popular metals to form organ pipes. Zinc allows for the preferred formability that manufacturers look for while remaining economical. Zinc strip from ARTAZN™ is made in the USA and can be produced with a quick turn around.
Countertops
Excelling in both form and function, zinc counter tops can add unique aesthetic features to any residential or commercial building. The formability and relative light weight of zinc strip allows it to be manipulated into the desired shape and design. Zinc strip is anti-corrosive ensuring long lasting durability. Zinc strip offers cost-savings compared to other countertop materials.
Glass Polishing
Zinc is optimal for glass polishing as it does not scratch glass. ARTAZN™ strip is used in applications such as prescription eye glass polish pads.
Garden Tags
Zinc strip once pre-weathered can be written on with permanent marker for lasting tags and signs in applications such as gardens.
