Galvanizing wire is a kind of metal product by plating a layer of zinc on the surface of the iron wire. It has many advantages, but there are also some disadvantages. I’ll cover these advantages and disadvantages in detail below.
First of all, one of the advantages of electrogalvanized wire is that it has good corrosion resistance. Zinc has good corrosion resistance, so the electric galvanized wire can well prevent the wire from being affected by oxidation and corrosion. This allows galvanized wire to be used for a long time in outdoor environments and humid climates, such as gardens, agriculture, construction and other fields.
Secondly, electrogalvanized wire has good electrical conductivity. The electrogalvanizing layer has good electrical conductivity, making the electrogalvanizing wire can be widely used in the electronic and electrical industry, such as wires, cables, electronic components, circuit boards and so on. In addition, electrogalvanized wire can also be used as a ground wire to protect electrical equipment.
Third, galvanized wire has good wear resistance and durability. The zinc layer protects the wire surface from scratches and damage, thus extending the service life. This makes the galvanized wire can be widely used in some fields requiring wear resistance and durability, such as making wire mesh, making steel mesh, making guardrail and so on.
In addition, the electrogalvanized wire also has good plasticity. The zinc layer can make the electrogalvanized wire more soft and easy to bend, so that it can meet the needs of various complex shapes. This makes the electrogalvanized wire can be widely used in some occasions that need to be bent and shaped, such as making ornaments and handmade.
However, electrogalvanizing wire also has some disadvantages. First, the zinc layer is prone to corrosion. Although the zinc layer of electrogalvanized wire can protect the wire well, when the zinc layer is damaged or exposed to the harsh environment for a long time, the zinc layer is prone to corrosion, resulting in corrosion of the wire. Therefore, regular maintenance and repair is necessary to extend the service life of electric galvanized wire.
In addition, the cost of electric galvanized wire is higher. Compared with ordinary iron wire, the manufacturing process of electrogalvanized wire is more complex, requiring galvanizing equipment and liquid galvanizing agents, which makes the cost of electrogalvanized wire relatively high. Therefore, in some cost-sensitive areas, other materials may be selected instead of electrogalvanized wire.
