Galvanized wire including

Electro-galvanized Iron Wire and Hot-dip Galvanized Iron Wire is a type of steel wire that's undergone additional protection processes.

Annealed wire is heated to restore ductility, but even that process leaves the metal with a few vulnerabilities. It can suffer from corrosion, scratches and will become much less effective over time. That leads to rust and can undermine the integrity of the wire, resulting in repair and even replacement costs.

Galvanized wire is an additional step. It involves dipping the metal into a bath of molten zinc. When the zinc dries it confers a secondary layer of protection. Zinc is tough and used in the production of galvanized steel more generally. It’s resistant to scratches and, most importantly of all, corrosion. This dramatically increases the longevity of the wire, keeps costs low and ensures continued use.


What are the benefits?

#1 Resistant to corrosion

Corrosion is caused by molecular exchange between metal and air. When metals come into contact with air, they lose some of their positive ions, leading to the formation of rust. Galvanized wire is highly resistant to corrosion. Zinc is renowned for its ability to resist oxygen and moisture and is often used to protect steel in the construction industry. A layer of zinc is frequently added to steel structures that are exposed to the elements. The zinc oxidizes instead of the steel, protecting the metal. Corrosion can be a big problem for wire, especially if it’s being used outdoors, but the layer of zinc confers protection that lasts.
