Zinc Wire

Zinc wire is a slender, ductile metallic filament made primarily of zinc, a naturally occurring element known for its reactivity. We manufacture our zinc wires from high-grade zinc ingots with a purity of 99.995%, as specified by EN 1179 under "Z1.”
Available in various diameters and lengths, Ceedee Metalloys manufactures zinc wires that are tailored to meet specific application needs. Their ductility allows for easy shaping into different configurations. The surface finish of our wires varies based on manufacturing processes and intended uses to ensure optimal performance in applications ranging from construction to electronics. Our commitment to quality guarantees that our zinc wires effectively meet diverse industry requirements.

Features

Purity

We source raw materials from LME-approved brands, maintaining a purity level of 99.995%. This guarantees consistent performance, reduces impurities and enhances reliability in metallizing and coating applications.

Electrical Conductivity

Our zinc wires are highly conductive, making them ideal for critical processes like arc and flame spraying. This ensures efficient energy transfer and strong coating adhesion.

Surface Quality

We follow a strict production process to manufacture zinc wires with a smooth, contaminant-free surface. This reduces nozzle clogging and ensures consistent flow for an even coat, improves operational efficiency and results.

Customization

We manufacture a variety of zinc wires in different diameters and specifications to meet unique customer requirements and optimise performance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Zinc wires should be stored in a clean, dry, and well-ventilated area- away from moisture, chemicals and extreme temperatures. Proper storage prevents oxidation, corrosion and contamination, ensuring optimal performance during application.

Yes, our zinc wire is manufactured to consistent dimensions and mechanical properties, making it compatible with a wide range of automated and manual thermal spray systems. This ensures smooth feeding, stable arc performance and a uniform coating.

Before spraying, zinc wire should be checked for cleanliness and surface condition. Any dust, oil or contaminants should be removed to ensure smooth feeding, stable arc formation, and high-quality coating results.

Yes, our zinc wires are 100% recyclable. Off-cuts, overspray dust and spent coatings can be collected and processed for recycling.

Yes- wire diameter impacts feed rate, spray pattern and coating thickness. Thicker wires are suited for high-deposition applications, while thinner wires allow more precise control and finer surface finishes. We offer multiple diameters to match performance requirements.
