Note:1 Backing coat refers to the coating applied to the back side
of prepainted sheets in order to provide a minimal degree of
corrosion resistance.
The types of the base sheets and their symbols conform to Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal sales product specifications.
Coating mass depends on the specifications for individual substrates.
Chemical composition values are regulated by the various substrates. Cast analysis values are assumed unless otherwise regulated.
The tensile test of VIEWKOTE takes place before the coating of the base sheet.
Tensile tests are not guaranteed for base sheets for general use.
Tensile tests guarantee only tensile strengths in Type 1 for drawing, for structural uses, for drawing, and for high-strength processing.

When working with prepainted steel sheet, the die coming in contact with the paint coating should preferably be coated with hard
chromium, and it is recommended that the die surface be ground
as finely as possible to prevent galling or scoring from occurring
on the paint coating.
Clearance
The adjustment of the clearance between punch and die should
be based on the thickness of the base sheet plus about 70% of the
combined thickness of the paint coating and the protective film.
Blank holding force
Because the coating surface is slippery, better results will be
obtained by applying a somewhat stronger blank holding force
than usual.
Lubricants
To choose the right press oil best suited for each fabricating condition, it is necessary that press oils be checked in advance by
tests or some other means.
Please contact us before using press oils.
Heated forming
As a rule, the design of a paint system takes the service environment into consideration. Generally speaking, the formability of the
paint coating is dependent on temperature and should therefore
be improved by heating.
Handling after forming
When prepainted sheet is moved after forming, it is recommended
that paper, foam plastic sheet or the like be used to avoid damage
to the paint coating.

Precautions in Use
4. Protection of Cut Edges
7. Repairs
5. Cleaning
It is recommended that stains due to oil and the like be rinsed using
alcohol, benzine or a neutral detergent.
Avoid the use of ketone, ether thinner or trichlene, because they may
damage the paint coating. Great care should also be given to the
fact that a hand- or sweat-stained portion, if left as it is, may
discolor.
When a solvent or other chemical is used for cleaning VIEWKOTE,
wipe it off thoroughly before packaging. If subjected to heating or
similar treatments, VIEWKOTE should be packaged after it has
cooled to normal temperatures.
6. Storage
VIEWKOTE should be stored indoors in order to prevent rust due to
wetness and also to prevent hardening of the paint coating due to
low temperatures in winter or softening due to elevated temperatures in summer.
Storing VIEWKOTE for extremely long periods may pose problems in
press-forming. When VIEWKOTE has been specified for delivery
with a protective film attached, be sure to apply the first-in first-out
method because the film may be hard to remove after the product
has been stored a long time.
Products are shipped as packaged to protect them from damage during transit
and in storage. Products are identified by a packaging label attached to one end
of the package. The label is a good aid for acceptance and storage of products.
The information on the label contains the following.

9. Attention
When removing (cutting) coil binding hoops (bands) for use, make
certain that the end of the coil is directly beneath the coil center in
order to prevent the end of the coil from sudden springing out of
the coil end; or, be certain to conduct the removal in a place
where safety can be assured and no danger is posed if the coil
end were to spring out upon release.
Coils are formed by winding flat sheets. When the binding hoops
or other external forces that keep the sheet in coil form are
removed and the coil end is freed, the coil end will spring outward
to return to a flat state. Further, there are also cases when the coil
bindings become loose, allowing the coil to spring out. Such
cases may endanger nearby workers and cause damage, so
careful attention must be paid when removing the coil binding
hoops (bands).
