The steel wire rope is a helical wire bundle in which the steel wires whose mechanical properties and geometric dimensions meet the requirements are twisted together according to certain rules. The steel wire rope is composed of steel wire, rope core and grease. The steel wire rope is first twisted into strands by multiple layers of steel wires, and then twisted into a helical rope by a certain number of strands with the rope core as the center. In material handling machinery, it is used for lifting, pulling, tensioning and carrying. The steel wire rope has high strength, light weight, stable operation, not easy to break suddenly, and reliable operation.

Galvanized Steel Wire Rope Has Two Standards.

Galvanized steel wire rope is not easy to rust, and is suitable for advanced construction, vehicle and ship binding, marine operations, traction, binding and other fields, especially in fishing. The galvanized steel wire rope has a large bearing capacity, is not easy to break, and is safe and reliable.
Galvanized steel wire ropes are available in two standards

1. Electro-galvanized steel wire rope

The electro-galvanized steel wire rope is actually made up of fine pure zinc grains by the manufacturer after adding zinc grains for processing and refining. For the general steel wire rope in our life, the amount of zinc 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 relative to the amount of zinc on the general steel wire rope.

2. Hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope

The hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope is completely different from the electro-galvanized steel wire rope. The hot-dip galvanized steel wire rope is mainly an iron-zinc compound formed by the physical reaction and the slow diffusion of heat. In layman’s terms, it is the zinc plated by the manufacturer at room temperature for processing, refining or other methods.

What are the specifications of galvanized steel wire rope

Galvanized steel wire rope specifications are: 1mm, 2.0mm, 24mm, 26mm, 28mm-60mm, etc. In fact, there are many kinds of galvanized steel wire rope specifications. If you need to use galvanized steel wire rope in your daily life, you can choose the suitable galvanized steel wire rope according to your needs.
