Galvanised Iron Wire
Galvanized iron wire is a versatile and widely used material in various commercial and industrial applications. It is a type of wire that has undergone a galvanization process to enhance its properties and provide excellent corrosion resistance. Galvanization involves coating the wire with a protective layer of zinc, which forms a barrier between the wire and the environment, preventing rust and extending its lifespan.
There are two main types of galvanized iron wire: electro galvanized wire and hot-dipped galvanized wire. Electro galvanized wire, also known as cold galvanized wire, is made from high-quality carbon steel wire. It is processed using electrolytic equipment, resulting in a relatively thin but uniform zinc coating. This type of wire is commonly used to manufacture nails, wire ropes, wire mesh, fencing, and for binding flowers and wire mesh weaving. It offers sufficient anti-corrosion and anti-oxidation properties, making it suitable for various applications.
On the other hand, hot-dipped galvanized wire is a primary wire product of galvanization. It is available in various sizes, typically ranging from 8 gauge to 22 gauge, but custom diameters can also be accommodated. Hot-dipped galvanized wire features a thicker zinc coating compared to electro galvanized wire, providing even stronger corrosion resistance and high tensile strength. This type of wire finds wide applications in the production of handicrafts, woven wire mesh, fencing mesh, packaging products, and other everyday uses.
Galvanized iron wire is favored for its durability, longevity, and cost-effectiveness. The zinc coating acts as a sacrificial layer, sacrificing itself to protect the underlying steel wire from corrosion. This makes galvanized iron wire a reliable choice for outdoor and exposed applications where moisture, humidity, and environmental factors can lead to rust and degradation.
The process of making galvanized iron wire involves carefully cleaning the steel wire to remove any impurities, followed by immersing it in a molten zinc bath or electroplating it with zinc, depending on the galvanization method used. The wire is then cooled and treated to ensure an even and smooth zinc coating. This meticulous process ensures consistent quality and performance of the galvanized iron wire.
