Hot Dipped Galvanized Low Carbon GI Steel Wire
Our hot dipped galvanized wire (GI wire) is manufactured from high-quality low carbon steel rod through drawing and hot-dip galvanizing process. Compared with electro galvanized wire, it features a much thicker zinc layer, outstanding anti-corrosion performance and longer service life, suitable for outdoor and harsh working conditions.
The wire has uniform zinc coating, stable tensile strength, good flexibility, easy to bend, twist and weave. No peeling, no burrs on the surface. It is the ideal raw material for fencing, wire mesh, gabion boxes, construction binding and agricultural support.

FAQ
Q1: What is hot dipped galvanized GI wire?
A: Hot dipped galvanized wire is low carbon steel wire immersed in molten zinc. It gets a thick zinc coating for anti-corrosion, also called GI wire. It is different from electro galvanized wire with thinner zinc layer.
Q2: What raw material do you use for this GI wire?
A: Raw material is low carbon steel Q195 / Q235, equivalent to SAE1006 / SAE1008, good ductility for twisting, binding and weaving.
Q3: What standards can your hot dipped galvanized wire meet?
A: We support ASTM A641, ASTM A116, EN 10244-2. MTC mill test certificate can be provided.
Q4: What diameter and BWG sizes are available?
A: Diameter range: 0.7mm ~ 6.0mm, BWG 6 to BWG22. Custom sizes are acceptable.
Q5: How much is the zinc coating weight?
A: Standard zinc coating: 60g/m² – 280g/m². Heavy zinc coating for coastal or harsh outdoor environment can be customized.
Q6: What are the main applications?
A: Widely used for rebar binding, fencing, chain link mesh, welded wire mesh, gabion boxes, agriculture trellis and hardware weaving.
Q7: What is your coil packing and coil weight?
A: Coil weight from 10kg to 1000kg per coil. Packing: inner plastic film + woven bag. Pallet packing is available for sea shipment.
Q8: Can I get samples before bulk order?
A: Yes, free small samples are available, buyer only bears the courier freight cost.
Q9: What is your MOQ?
A: MOQ depends on diameter, zinc coating and packing requirements. Small trial order is negotiable for regular sizes.
Q10: Hot dipped or electro galvanized, which one lasts longer outdoors?
A: Hot dipped galvanized wire has thicker zinc layer, better rust resistance and much longer service life for outdoor projects. Electro galvanized wire is more suitable for indoor use.
