What Is Galvanized Wire?

Galvanized steel wire is steel wire coated with a zinc layer, which can protect the steel wire from rust and corrosion. Zinc can be applied using a method in which the wire is dipped into a molten bath of zinc, or it can be electroplated on the surface. Due to its durability and smooth finish, it is suitable for many applications.

Galvanized Wire Properties

Galvanized Iron Wire Uses

Galvanized iron wire is usually used as Binding Wire, fencing wire, etc. Due to its durability and bright surface, it is also used for supporting climbing plants, making crafts, etc. The wide applications also make the galvanized wire a promising investment project.

3. Agriculture & Animal Husbandry

In the agricultural industry, galvanized steel wire can support climbing plants, such as tomatoes, grapes, etc. It is known as garden wire. Besides that, GI wire is an ideal material for making cages or fencing for animals.

4. Other Industry

Galvanized iron wire also finds popular application in wire for telecom cable, making wire nails, ropes, tie wire or binding wire, and other daily uses.

Types of Galvanized Steel Wire

According to the galvanizing process, GI wires are divided into HDP Wire and cold galvanized wire ( Electro-Galvanized Steel Wire ).

1. Hot Dipped Galvanized Wire

It is processed through a hot-dipped zinc bathing process. That is the wire is immersed in hot zinc molten so that the surface is fully covered with a zinc-coating layer. The hot-dip GI wire has excellent corrosion resistance, flexibility, and softness.

Manufacturing process: Steel rod coil – pre-treatment – wire drawing – rust removing – acid washing – thermal zinc coating – annealing – (wire re-drawing) -wire coiling – quality control – packaging.

2. Electro Galvanized Wire

The difference between hot-dipped and electro-galvanized wire is the galvanizing process. The latter uses the principle of electrolysis to paint a thin layer of zinc to the surface of steel wire. It makes the wire surface uniform and shiny.

Production process: Steel rod coil – pre-treatment – wire drawing ( wire redrawing) – rust removing – acid washing – cold galvanizing – wire coiling -quality control – packaging.

How to Choose the Gauges of Galvanized Wire?

1. Based on Strength
The wire gauge determines its overall strength or breaking weight. For example, the breaking weight of 12-gauge low-carbon galvanized wire is about 500 pounds. And the breaking weight of 14-gauge GI wire is about 800 pounds.

2. Depends on the purpose

When you use it as a fence to enclose large, heavy animals, the sturdy 12-gauge or stronger 9-gauge wire is recommended. When you use it for gardening, the thinner 16-gauge is a more ideal choice.

Packaging

Regarding the packaging of galvanized wire, Wanzhi Steel offers the following two types：

Note: The weight of galvanized wire varies from 1 kg – 1,000 kg per roll. If you have special requirements, it can also be customized.

Galvanized Wire Price

When looking for galvanized wire for sale, it is inevitable to ask the price of GI wire. You can find the market price range from 400-1,500 USD. Its price will be different due to the diameter, thickness of zinc-coating, galvanizing methods, suppliers, policy, etc.

Commonly, thick galvanized wire and thin wire are of different prices. The electro-galvanized wires will be cheaper than the hot-dip galvanized wires.

Note: The larger the number, the smaller the wire, for example, 12 gauge gi wire is thinner than 9 gauge. In general, lower gauge or thicker wire is best used for stronger projects. At the same time, higher gauge gi wire is suitable for garden and pet fencing.
