The main difference between the two is the carbon content. The carbon content of iron is 2.11 percent or greater, while the carbon content of steel is 2.11 percent or less. The iron carbon alloy with carbon content above 2.11% is cast iron (pig iron), which is basically not malleable and cannot be drawn into wire. Secondly, the content of impurities is different. The content of harmful impurities such as sulfur and phosphorus in steel is smaller. Steel wire general color focus, iron wire color light point, white point.

For the specification of galvanized wire, the galvanized wire produced by our factory can range from No.8 to No.22, which refers to the BWG standard, that is, from about 4mm to 0.7mm, which can basically cover the type required by the customer. As for the raw material of galvanized wire, normally, we use Q195 mild steel, and some factories will also use SAE1006 or SAE1008. The following is the zinc coating, for galvanized wire, this is very important, the general zinc coating is about 50g/m2 to 80g/m2, some customers need high zinc galvanized wire, zinc coating can reach 200g/m2 to 360g/m2. The tensile strength of galvanized wire is usually 350n/m2 to 800n/m2. Then there is the packaging specification of galvanized wire. The specifications of small rolls of galvanized wire are 50kg/ roll, 100kg/ roll and 200kg/ roll. Of course, there are large rolls of galvanized wire, the weight can reach 300kg/ roll or 800kg/ roll.

Hot dip galvanizing is dipped in zinc liquid melted by heating, with fast production speed and thick but uneven coating. The market allows a low thickness of 45 microns and a high of more than 300 microns. The color is dark, the consumption of zinc metal is much, the formation of infiltration layer with the matrix metal, the corrosion resistance is good, and the outdoor environment of hot dip galvanized can be maintained for decades. Application range of hot dip galvanizing: because the coating is thicker, hot dip galvanizing has better protective performance than electric galvanizing, so it is an important protective coating for iron and steel parts in harsh working environment. Hot-dip galvanized products are widely used in chemical equipment, petroleum processing, Marine exploration, metal structure, power transmission, shipbuilding and other industries, in the field of agriculture such as sprinkler irrigation, greenhouse and construction industry such as water and gas transmission, wire casing, scaffolding, Bridges, highway guardrail and other aspects, has been widely used.

Packaging: electric welding net general packaging for moisture-proof paper (color is mostly gray white, yellow, plus trademarks, certificates, etc.), some like 0.3-0.6mm domestic sales of small wire diameter electric welding net, because the wire is relatively soft, coupled with small volume, customers often require packing processing, in order to prevent shipment caused by damage. The wire of electric welding mesh has straight, also has a wavy bend (also known as the Dutch net).

Cold wire drawing is mainly used in the production of hardened low carbon steel wire, with a diameter of 8 mm steel bar to play a fixed role in the development of the construction industry has played a role in promoting the development of the construction industry, widely used. The bonding and anchorage performance between cold wire drawing and concrete is good. When used in components, the phenomenon of cracking in the anchorage area of components and damage caused by steel wire slip is fundamentally eliminated, and the bearing capacity and anti-cracking capacity of the end of components are improved.
