Hot Dip Galvanized Billet Steel Wire

Product Introduction

Hot dip galvanized billet steel wire is a type of industrial wire made by processing steel billets (semi-finished steel blocks) into wire, then coating it with zinc via the hot-dip method. The "billet" base ensures consistent material quality, while the hot-dip galvanization adds a protective layer—making it a reliable choice for applications needing both strength and corrosion resistance .

Excellent anti-corrosion performance

In terms of corrosion resistance, the thick multi-layer zinc coating on the hot-dip galvanized wire serves as a barrier against moisture, rain, and chemicals. In temperate environments, its service life can reach 20 to 50 years, and in harsh outdoor conditions it can last for over 20 years - its performance is far superior to thinner coatings such as electroplating. Moreover, the durable adhesion, the metallurgical bond between zinc and steel, means that the coating is not prone to peeling easily, even under bending or stress conditions. The unique appearance, featuring a distinctive "glowing" pattern - with mottled, crystalline textures on the surface - enables it to be easily distinguished from other galvanized wires. Mechanical strength maintains the tensile strength of the base steel (typically 900 to 1720 megapascals), while also increasing flexibility, so it does not break during stretching and bending.

Product Application

Hot dip galvanized billet steel wires possess both strength and rust resistance, enabling them to play a wide role in various industries. They are used in construction and infrastructure, for reinforcing concrete, building fences, and manufacturing metal nets for road guardrails or bridge components. In the power and communication sectors, they are used as guy wires for utility poles, overhead grounding wires, and cable sheaths (to protect underground/overhead cables from corrosion). In agriculture and logistics, they are used for livestock enclosures, steel wires for bundling hay/cotton bales, and cargo fixation lines. For outdoor and harsh environments, they are suitable for ship equipment, outdoor furniture, and coastal infrastructure - in saltwater or humid environments, uncoated steel will quickly rust.
