Product Overview: Galvanized Iron Wire

Galvanized Iron Wire is a versatile carbon steel wire that has undergone the process of galvanization. This involves coating the base iron or steel wire with a protective layer of zinc to enhance its resistance to corrosion and rust. Known for its durability, flexibility, and shiny finish, it is a staple material in construction, agriculture, and various industrial applications.

The manufacturing process typically involves wire drawing (to achieve the desired diameter) followed by annealing and zinc coating through either Hot-Dipped or Electro-galvanizing methods.

Technical Data Sheet

The following table outlines the standard specifications for high-quality galvanized iron wire.

Key Features and Benefits

• Superior Rust Resistance: The zinc layer acts as a sacrificial anode, protecting the inner steel core from moisture and oxidation.

• High Longevity: Hot-dipped varieties can last up to 20-50 years depending on environmental conditions.

• Flexibility and Pliability: Despite its strength, the wire is easy to bend and tie, making it ideal for binding.

• Aesthetic Appeal: The bright silver finish provides a clean, professional look for consumer-facing products.

Primary Applications

Galvanized iron wire is essential across multiple sectors due to its adaptability:

1. Construction & Infrastructure:

   • Used as binding wire (tie wire) for reinforcing steel bars (rebar) in concrete structures.

   • Manufacturing of mesh, nails, and wire ropes.

2. Fencing and Security:

   • The primary material for Chain Link Fences, Welded Wire Mesh, and Barbed Wire.

   • Used in concertina coils for high-security perimeters.

3. Agriculture:

   • Supporting structures for climbing plants (vineyards, orchards).

   • Animal cages and poultry netting (hexagonal wire mesh).

4. Daily Household Use:

   • Hangers, handles for buckets, and various DIY crafting projects.

   • Baling wire for recycling plants (packaging paper, plastic, or hay).
