Galvanizing Line

High Carbon Galvanizing

The high carbon wire galvanizing process is done both with and without heat-treatment. When combined with patenting the wire speed is often limited to under DV=100 due to galvanizing furnace length and capital cost restrictions. Without heat-treatment the designed galvanizing line speed is high and suitable for advanced nitrogen wiping. Traditionally some lines have employed lead furnaces to “burn-off” or remove wire drawing lubricants; currently our more environmentally friendly solution is to use an electrolytic boost pre-clean system for that operation.
