Galvanized iron wire can be divided into hot-dip galvanized iron wire and cold galvanized iron wire according to different processing methods. Galvanized iron wire is more prominent in its corrosion resistance. Galvanized iron wire has good toughness and elasticity, the amount of zinc can reach 300 g/square meter, with thick galvanized layer, strong corrosion resistance and other characteristics. Galvanized iron wire products are widely used in construction, handicrafts, wire mesh preparation, the production of galvanized hook mesh, wall mesh, highway guardrail, product packaging and daily civilian and other fields.

The type of barbed rope is mainly reflected in the specification of the wire diameter, the thicker the diameter of the barbed rope produced is shorter, at the same time, the price is cheaper, mainly because the production efficiency is relatively high, because the price of the barbed rope is calculated according to the weight when it is sold. On the contrary, the finer the diameter of the wire, the longer the price is higher.

When the zinc layer is seriously damaged and endangers the iron matrix, the zinc will produce electrochemical protection on the matrix, the standard potential of zinc is -0.76V and the standard potential of iron is -0.44V. When zinc and iron form microbatteries, the zinc will be dissolved as the anode, and the iron will be protected as the cathode. Obviously, the atmospheric corrosion resistance of hot dip galvanizing is better than that of electric galvanizing.
