Electro Galvanized Wire is made from low carbon steel wire by drawing and electro galvanizing. It is also called cold galvanized wire or electro galvanized iron wire. The surface is bright and smooth, with a light zinc coating for general rust resistance. It is commonly used for binding, flower tying, wire mesh weaving, fencing accessories, craft work, brush wire, and further processing. Regular sizes are usually from BWG6 to BWG22. Other gauges can be checked according to order. The wire can be supplied in coils, spools, bobbins, straight cut wire, or U type wire.
