Galvanized Wire

 

 

Hot Dipped Galvanized Wire / Electro Galvanized Wire / GI Binding Wire (Q195 Low Carbon Steel)

Key Features

  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance​ — Zinc coating acts as a barrier against rust and atmospheric corrosion.
  • Two Types Available:
    • Electro Galvanized:Bright, smooth surface, uniform coating, economical.
    • Hot Dipped Galvanized:Thicker zinc layer, superior weather resistance for harsh environments.
  • High Tensile Strength​ — Strong enough to withstand heavy loads and tension.
  • Durable & Long Lifespan​ — Suitable for long-term outdoor use.
  • Versatile​ — Easy to process into barbed wire, chain link fences, or used directly for binding.
  • Customizable​ — Various diameters, coil weights, and tensile strengths available.

Description

Galvanized Wire​ is made from high-quality low carbon steel wire rod (Q195/SAE1008) that has been drawn to the required diameter and coated with a layer of zinc. We offer both Electro-Galvanized (Cold Galvanized)​ and Hot-Dip Galvanized​ finishes. The zinc coating provides excellent corrosion resistance and rust protection, significantly extending the service life of the wire compared to black annealed wire. It combines good tensile strength with durability, making it ideal for fencing, construction, and outdoor applications exposed to moisture.
