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, our zinc wires are tailored to meet specific application needs. Their ductility allows for easy shaping into different configurations. Additionally, the surface finish varies based on manufacturing processes and intended uses, ensuring optimal performance in applications ranging from construction to electronics. Our commitment to quality guarantees that our zinc wires effectively meet diverse industry requirements.

Features

Frequently Asked Questions​

Zinc wire 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 uniform coatings.

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, zinc is a fully recyclable material. Off-cuts, overspray dust, and spent coatings can be collected and processed for recycling, making zinc wire an environmentally responsible choice.

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.
