Hot-Dip Galvanized Wire – Heavy-Duty Wire for Harsh Environments and Long-Term Outdoor Use

Introduction

From agriculture fencing in Argentina to construction tie wire in Saudi Arabia, hot-dip galvanized wire is a proven performer in extreme outdoor conditions. With thick zinc coating and superior adhesion, it provides long-lasting protection against corrosion and wear.

What Is Hot-Dip Galvanized Wire?

This wire is made by immersing low-carbon steel wire into a bath of molten zinc. Unlike electro-galvanized wire, the zinc layer is thicker, more uniform, and better suited for outdoor use and heavy-duty applications.

Applications

  • Fencing: Chain link, barbed wire, livestock fencing.

  • Construction: Binding wire, wall ties, mesh panels.

  • Agriculture: Vineyard training wire, trellis wire.

  • Cable Armoring: Steel core wires for power cables.

  • Artisanal Products: Metal baskets, mesh crafts.

Advantages

  •  Superior Rust Resistance – Zinc coating of up to 250 g/m².

  •  Long Service Life – Ideal for 10+ year outdoor exposure.

  •  Thick Coating – More durable than electro-galvanized options.

  •  Bright, Clean Surface – Easy to handle and work with.

  •  High Compatibility – Works with welding, weaving, or bending.
