Galvanized welded wire mesh is a type of wire mesh that is manufactured by welding wires together, creating an intersection at each wire. The neat square or rectangular pattern makes the galvanized welded wire mesh very versatile and durable.
The term "galvanized" refers to the process of treating the welded wire mesh to prevent rust and corrosion. There are two common galvanizing methods: hot-dip galvanizing, which involves immersing the wire mesh in a bath of molten zinc, and electro-galvanizing, where an electric current is used to bond the zinc coating to the wire.
Specification
The electro galvanized welded wire mesh. Unlike the welded wire mesh that gets a zinc layer through a hot-dip process, this variety starts with low carbon steel wire. The iron wires are then joined together by automated, digitally controlled welding machines. After the welding is done, the welded wire mesh gets an electric zinc coating.
Usually, the electric zinc coating comes after the welding, which helps to protect against rust better than plain low carbon steel, but it's not as costly as stainless steel. The electro-galvanized welded wire mesh is perfect for making building fences and for other construction projects. The electro-galvanized welded wire mesh is a long-lasting metal fence that's great for the framework of buildings. The electro-galvanized welded wire mesh can also come in rolls or panels, which is handy for all sorts of industrial jobs.

Coating Process: Hot-dipped galvanizing involves dipping the welded wire mesh into a bath of molten zinc, whereas electro-galvanizing uses an electric current to deposit zinc ions onto the surface of the welded wire mesh.
Coating Thickness: Hot-dipped galvanized welded wire mesh typically has a thicker and heavier coating(35-280g/m2) of zinc compared to electro-galvanized welded wire mesh(15-35g/m2).
Corrosion Resistance: While both methods provide corrosion protection, hot-dipped galvanized welded wire mesh often offers greater corrosion resistance due to the thicker coating.
Uniform Coating: Electro-galvanizing provides a smoother and more uniform zinc coating compared to hot-dipping, which can lead to better corrosion resistance in some cases.
Precision: The electro-galvanizing process allows for better control over the thickness of the zinc coating, which can be adjusted to meet specific requirements.
Aesthetics: Electro-galvanized welded wire mesh has a cleaner and smoother appearance, which can be preferable for applications where appearance is important.Construction Fencing: Electro-galvanized welded wire mesh is commonly used to create secure and durable fencing around construction sites to ensure safety.
Reinforcement: In the construction industry, electro-galvanized welded wire mesh serves as a reinforcement material in concrete and plaster to prevent cracking and enhance structural integrity.
Agriculture: Electro-galvanized welded wire mesh is used in agricultural applications such as animal enclosures, poultry farms, and plant support grids due to its corrosion resistance and strength.
Safety Barriers: Electro-galvanized welded wire mesh is employed as safety barriers in various applications, including roadwork and crowd control, due to its robustness and visibility.
