Zinc Wire Description
Zinc is an element which is well known by public as one of important minerals of health. Actually, zinc was widely used as alloy of copper and zinc in ancient times. Today zinc metal has more industrial used.

Zinc Wire Applications
Zinc wire is widely applied to thermal spraying anticorrosion, container, bridge, head frame, storage tank, electric iron tower, poles and towers, capacitor, metal bracket, nodular cast iron pipe, traffic equipment, etc.
Zinc Wire Packaging
Packing: 50kg/Drum or as required
Our zinc wire is clearly tagged and labeled externally to ensure efficient identification and quality control. Great care is taken to avoid any damage which might be caused during storage or transportation.
Zinc Wire FAQs
Q1.What types of zinc wire are available?
Zinc wire is available in various purities, typically ranging from commercial-grade zinc (99.5% purity) to high-purity zinc (99.99% purity). The diameter of zinc wire can vary depending on the application, with common sizes ranging from 1 mm to 4 mm.
Q2. How is zinc wire applied in thermal spraying?
Zinc wire is fed into a thermal spray gun, where it is melted by a heat source such as an electric arc or flame. The molten zinc is then atomized and propelled onto the surface to be coated, forming a protective layer.
Q3. Can zinc wire be recycled?
Yes, zinc wire and zinc coatings can be recycled. Recycling zinc helps conserve resources and reduce environmental impact. Scrap zinc from coatings or unused wire can be collected and processed for reuse in various applications.
