The quality of hot-dip galvanized barbed wire is only the zinc layer attached to the surface of the wire, and with the chemical reaction, the zinc layer on the surface will gradually lose its role because of the oxidation reaction, which is more prominent in the humid environment. And because the use of rusty wire after all, it is said that the quality of hot-dip galvanized barbed wire is certainly not up to the level of stainless steel barbed wire.

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.

Electro galvanizing shaft wire direct is in the electroplating tank through the current unidirectional zinc gradually plated on the metal surface, production speed is slow, uniform coating, thin thickness, usually only 3-15 microns, bright appearance, poor corrosion resistance, generally a few months will rust. Compared with hot dip galvanizing, electric galvanizing has lower production cost. The difference between cold galvanizing and hot galvanizing: the difference between cold galvanizing and hot galvanizing is that the amount of zinc is different. They can be identified from the color. The color of cold galvanizing is shiny silver white with yellow. Hot dip galvanized shiny hair white.

Galvanized hexagonal mesh features: easy to use; Save transportation costs. It can be reduced into small rolls, and involved in moisture-proof paper packaging, occupying little space. Coating thickness uniformity, corrosion resistance is stronger; Simple construction, no special technology; Strong resistance to natural damage and corrosion resistance and the ability to resist adverse climate impact; Can withstand a wide range of deformation and still not collapse. Play the role of fixed heat preservation and insulation.

The wire diameter of raw materials used in different types of barbed rope is also very different, but in the production and processing process of barbed rope need to know the amount of use.

The technical term “galvanizing” means that the metal has been specially treated with zinc. Essentially, it’s wire covered with a very thin layer of zinc. It is because of this thin layer of zinc that galvanized wire has many characteristics. Zinc can be galvanized by dipping the wire into a zinc bath or by electroplating.

Because the coating obtained is thicker, hot-dip galvanizing has very good protective function than electric galvanizing, so it is an important maintenance coating for iron and steel parts in strict working environment. Hot-dip galvanized products are widely used in chemical equipment, petroleum processing, Marine exploration, metal structure, electric power transportation, shipbuilding and other occupations. In the field of agriculture, such as pesticide irrigation, greenhouse and construction industry such as water and gas transportation, wire casing, scaffolding, Bridges, highway guardrail and other aspects, it has been widely used in these years.

When the zinc layer is seriously damaged and endangers the iron matrix, the zinc will produce electrochemical protection on the matrix, the standard potential of zinc is -0.76V and the standard potential of iron is -0.44V. When zinc and iron form microbatteries, the zinc will be dissolved as the anode, and the iron will be protected as the cathode. Obviously, the atmospheric corrosion resistance of hot dip galvanizing is better than that of electric galvanizing.
