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.

Galvanized wire is processed from low carbon steel wire rod, after drawing forming, pickling rust removal, high temperature annealing, cooling and other processes. Galvanized wire is widely used. Electroplating temperature should be controlled at 30 to 50℃. Because the chloride ions in the bath are very corrosive, quartz glass heaters are generally used.
