The difference is that hot dip galvanizing is dipped in zinc solution melted by heating, which has fast production speed and thick but uneven coating. 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. Cold galvanized is in the plating tank through the current unidirectional zinc gradually plated on the metal surface, the production speed is slow, uniform coating, thin thickness, usually only 3-15 microns, bright appearance, poor corrosion resistance, generally a few months will rust.

The production process is to roll the hot metal billet into 5mm thick steel, and then put it into the wire drawing device, draw into different diameters of the line and gradually reduce the aperture of the wire drawing disk. Production process through cooling, annealing, coating and other processing technology, and then made into a variety of different specifications of galvanized wire. Galvanized wire production because of simple process, wide application, early development. Galvanized wire or steel wire is a cold working product of steel wire, and the material used is generally low carbon steel or stainless steel.
