BS EN 13523-6:2020

What is BS EN 13523-6 about? 

BS EN 13523 series covers the coil coated metals, BS EN 13523-6 is one of the parts of a series documents defines terms of the procedure for determining the adhesion of an organic coating to a metallic substrate after indentation produced by slow deformation. 

Who is BS EN 13523-6 for? 

BS EN 13523-6 on Coil coated metals is applicable to: 

• Coil coating chemical industries. 
• Sheet metal industry 
• Furniture industry 
• Steel and aluminium industries 
• Automotive, mechanical Industries 

Why should you use BS EN 13523-6? 

BS EN 13523-6 provides adhesion after indentation test guidelines for organic coating on coil coated metals, which are used for design flexibility, corrosion resistance, and weathering resistance. Which provides a High-quality organic coating on coil coated metals. 

By offering adhesion after indentation test procedure guidelines, BS EN 13523-6 aids in the improvement of the durability and the efficiency of organic coating on coil coated metals. With BS EN 13523-6 the resistance to cracking can also be evaluated which improves the durability of organic coating on coil coated metals
