What is galvanized steel wire?

What is galvanized steel wire? Galvanized steel wire is a type of steel wire that has a shiny white color, high toughness, and durability and is a product widely used in the fields of electricity, industrial production, and construction. Galvanized steel wire is usually produced from low-carbon steel through a process of heating and drawing into wire. Galvanized steel wire is usually very small in size, thin, and rolled into large coils for easy transport. Galvanized steel wire features a smooth or ribbed surface, with average production diameters from 0.4mm to 14mm. The average weight of a roll of galvanized steel wire usually ranges from 200 to 459 kg/roll.

The above section has given you information about what is galvanized steel wire? Next, we invite you to learn about the popular types of galvanized steel wire.

Currently, galvanized steel wire is classified based on the galvanizing method. Therefore, galvanized steel wire is divided into two main types: hot-dip galvanized steel wire and electrolytic galvanized steel wire. Currently, zinc plating is produced with matte or gloss plating technology according to standards TCVN , JIS G305, ASTM A475 or according to customer requirements.
