Cold galvanizing (galvanizing) is in the plating tank after the current unidirectional, so that the zinc gradually plated on the metal surface, slow production speed, uniform coating, thin thickness, usually as long as 3-15g, bright appearance, poor corrosion resistance, usually a few months will rust. Compared with hot dip galvanizing, the production cost of electric galvanizing is lower.

Hot-dip galvanized wire is widely used in chemical equipment, petroleum processing, Marine exploration, metal structure, electric power transmission, shipbuilding and other industries. It has been widely used in recent years in agricultural fields such as agricultural medicine sprinkler irrigation, greenhouse and construction industry such as water and gas transmission, wire casing, scaffolding, Bridges, highway guardrail and so on.

The wire used for barbed wire is woven or welded with low carbon steel wire, medium carbon steel wire, high carbon steel wire, stainless steel wire and other materials. The production process includes: general braid, embossed braid and spot welding. If the material is steel wire, after equipment processing into a network, it is called wire mesh.

The technical term “galvanized” means that metal has been specially treated with zinc. Essentially, the wire is covered with a very thin layer of zinc. It is this thin layer of zinc that gives galvanized wire its many properties. Galvanizing can be done by dipping wire into a pool of zinc or by electroplating.

Hot dip galvanized coating is also relatively thick, but there is an uneven situation, for example, the thickness of the thin is only 45 microns, thick can reach 300 microns or even thicker, the color of this product is relatively dark. There is also a lot of zinc consumed in the production process. Zinc will form an infiltration layer with the metal. Its advantage is that it has good corrosion resistance. Electrogalvanizing, it is through the plating tank in the zinc one-way plating on the outside of the metal products, this way of making products is relatively slow, but its thickness is more uniform.

Electric galvanized wire is dipped in the zinc solution of heating ablation, the production speed is fast, the coating is thick but not uniform, the market allows a low thickness of 45 microns, up to 300 microns or more. The color is dark, the zinc metal is consumed, and the matrix metal is formed into the entry layer, the corrosion resistance is good, and the outdoor environment of hot dip galvanized can adhere to decades.

The temperature of large roll galvanized wire should be controlled at 30 to 50℃ during electroplating. Because the chloride ions in the bath are very corrosive, quartz glass heaters are generally used. Continuous production does not need heating, but needs cooling. Cooling can be in the groove side row thin wall plastic pipe, through the flow of tap water cooling, can also be used as a titanium pipe temperature control device.
