Galvanized steel wire rope standards and specifications in detail

2021-06-02
Wire ropes are often used in our daily lives, especially for construction sites or electric poles, which require the support of wire ropes to stabilize the safety of construction equipment. Since there are many types and specifications of steel wire ropes, let me introduce you to the standards of galvanized steel wire ropes!

Galvanized Steel Wire Rope

What is a galvanized steel wire rope? Maybe this is not used in life practice for some people, so there is no certain understanding and knowledge about galvanized steel wire rope. In fact, galvanized steel wire rope is a kind of steel wire rope made by the manufacturer of zinc-iron alloy, and it is mostly used for high-grade buildings for stable bundling.

In addition, there are two standards for galvanized steel wire rope:

1, electro-galvanized steel wire rope

The electro-galvanized steel wire rope is actually processed by the manufacturer after adding zinc grains, and then composed of fine pure zinc grains by electrodeposition. For the average steel wire rope in our lives, the zinc amount is 750g/m2. However, the amount of zinc on the electro-galvanized steel wire rope can reach 1200g/m2. Therefore, the amount of zinc on the electro-galvanized steel wire rope is relatively high compared to the amount of zinc on the general steel wire rope.

2, hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope

Hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope is completely different from electro-galvanized steel wire rope. Hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope is mainly an iron-zinc compound formed under the effect of physical reaction and thermal diffusion slowly. In layman's terms, it is the zinc plated by the manufacturer at room temperature for processing and refining or other methods.

Galvanized Steel Wire Rope Specification

galvanized steel wire rope specifications are: 1mm, 2.0mm, 24mm, 26mm, 28mm-60mm, etc. In fact, there are many specifications of galvanized steel wire rope, so I won't introduce them one by one here. If you need to use galvanized steel wire rope in your daily life, you can choose your own suitable galvanized steel wire rope according to your needs.

In addition, there are also small galvanized steel wire rope specifications. For small galvanized steel wire ropes, the specifications generally range from 1mm to 3mm, and there are 1*7 models, 1*19 models, 6*7, 7*7 models, and 6*19, 6*37 models above 6mm.

Due to the different specifications of galvanized steel wire ropes, the price of galvanized steel wire ropes will also vary. So when you purchase galvanized steel wire rope, you can consult several manufacturers according to the specifications and models you use, or other special specifications, and choose the reasonable price in your mind.
