Galvanized Wire
Categories: Hot dipped galvanized iron wires and electro-galvanized iron wires (also called cold galvanized iron wires)
Specifications: 0.15mm-5.0mm
Arts and crafts: Using Low/middle/high carbon steel wire as raw material, It is a kind of metallic composite material through redrawing and galvanization.
The differences between the Cold Dipped Galvanized Iron Wires and the Hot Dipped Galvanized Iron Wires:
1. The electroplated galvanized iron wires is The iron wires are galvanized in the aquosity electroplate liquid.
2. The hot dipped galvanized iron wires is to Dip the iron wires into the hot melted zinc liquid. The zinc layers are 10 to 100 times thicker than the electro-galvanized iron wires. The ability of anticorrosion is stronger than the electro-galvanized iron wires.
Then we can summarize the difference as follows:
1. The electro-galvanized iron wires belong to cold galvanization.
The electro-galvanized (the cold galvanized) are formed through electrochemical reaction. The hot dipped are formed through physical reaction.
2. The zinc layers of the electro-galvanized iron wires are thin (10g/m2).
The layers of the hot dipped galvanized iron wires are thick (40-300g/m2).
3. The anticorrosion ability of the electro-galvanized iron wires is weaker but the surface is smooth and the price is cheap.
