Although galvanized iron wire is protected by a galvanized layer, it does not mean that it will not rust at all, but rather delays the rusting process. In general, cold galvanized iron wire can be used for 1-2 years without rusting, while hot-dip galvanized iron wire can be used for 8-10 years without rusting. If maintained properly, the usage time will be longer. So how to prevent galvanized iron wire from rusting?
We all know that wire rusting is caused by chemical reactions that occur when in contact with water and oxygen.
Therefore, to prevent galvanized wire rusting, first of all, when storing galvanized wire, choose a ventilated and dry place to avoid moisture or rain leakage. When using it, in addition to following the principle of first in, first out, if the galvanized layer is accidentally damaged, it should be treated with anti rust paint, otherwise losing the protection of the galvanized layer can easily cause galvanized wire rusting.
