The main difference between the two is the carbon content. The carbon content of iron is 2.11 percent or greater, while the carbon content of steel is 2.11 percent or less. The iron carbon alloy with carbon content above 2.11% is cast iron (pig iron), which is basically not malleable and cannot be drawn into wire. Secondly, the content of impurities is different. The content of harmful impurities such as sulfur and phosphorus in steel is smaller. Steel wire general color focus, iron wire color light point, white point.

Galvanized iron wire is very common in practical application, some people think that galvanized iron wire will not rust, in fact, it is not. Metal corrosion is caused by the chemical or electrochemical action of the surrounding medium. According to different media, it is divided into atmospheric corrosion, soil corrosion, seawater corrosion, bacterial corrosion and so on. Atmospheric corrosion is more common, because metal products in the process of processing, transportation and storage, when in contact with the atmosphere, there are always atmospheric corrosion conditions.

The methods to control the thickness of galvanizing are as follows: you can slow down the lifting speed of the workpiece, control the time of galvanizing as far as possible, add the appropriate amount of thinning alloy, reduce the thickness, and improve the temperature of hot-dip galvanizing. But consider the zinc pot, iron pot should not exceed 480 degrees, ceramic pot can be 530 degrees, which can reduce the time of zinc immersion.

The temperature of large roll galvanized wire should be controlled at 30 to 50℃ during electroplating. Because the chloride ions in the bath are very corrosive, quartz glass heaters are generally used. Continuous production does not need heating, but needs cooling. Cooling can be in the groove side row thin wall plastic pipe, through the flow of tap water cooling, can also be used as a titanium pipe temperature control device.
