What material is hot plated wire? What is its production process?

Hot plating wire is a product made by hot plating process of coating metal on the surface of the substrate. It is usually made of steel wire as a substrate, plated with a layer of metal, common gold plating including zinc, copper, aluminum, nickel and so on.
The production process of hot plating wire can generally be divided into the following steps:
1. Prepare the substrate: First of all, you need to cut the steel wire to a certain length, and clean it to remove impurities such as grease and dust on the surface.

2. Pretreatment: Before hot plating the steel wire, it is generally necessary to carry out some pretreatment processes, such as pickling, phosphating and so on. Pickling can remove the oxide and rust on the surface of the steel wire to ensure the cleanliness of the surface; Phosphating can enhance the binding force of steel wire and coating.
3. Plating solution preparation: Choosing the appropriate plating solution is a very important part of the hot plating process. The plating solution is generally composed of a metal salt solution and an additive, such as a zinc hydrochloride solution containing zinc ions. Reasonable concentration of plating solution and ratio of additives can ensure the quality and stability of coating.
4. Hot plating: the pre-treated steel wire is immersed in the plating solution, and the metal coating is formed on the surface of the steel wire through the electrolysis process. In the hot plating process, the steel wire acts as the cathode, and the metal ions in the metal salt solution are reduced to metal and deposited on the surface of the steel wire. By controlling parameters such as current, voltage and bath temperature, the ideal coating can be obtained.
5. Post-treatment: After the hot plating wire production is completed, it is generally necessary to carry out some post-treatment processes, such as washing, drying, polishing, etc., to remove impurities and improve the quality of the coating.
