What is GP 120 GSM?

GP 120 GSM refers to a Galvanised Plain sheet with a zinc coating weight of 120 grams per square metre (on both sides combined). This means each side carries approximately 60 g/m² of zinc, providing a solid barrier against corrosion.

The Z120 grade sits in the sweet spot between cost and corrosion protection, making it the default choice for most Indian applications:

  • Sufficient zinc for 15–20 years of outdoor life in normal environments
  • Costs ₹1,500–2,500/MT less than Z180, and ₹5,000–7,000/MT less than Z275
  • Available in the widest range of thicknesses and widths
  • Stocked by virtually every major mill and dealer
