Product Description

Overhead Ground Wire

Galvanized Wire is made to ASTM B498; ASTM A 475; BS 183 etc. The metallic zinc coatings applied by the galvanizing process are an effective way of combating corrosion in steel. Galvanized wire for cable application is available in a Class A coating; Class B coating and Class C coating.

Class A coatings are smoother, however less corrosion resistant than heavy galvanized coatings and are often used in normal wire working applications. Some typical end users include cages, bucket handles, coat hangers and baskets.

Class B and Class C coatings are used in conditions where atmospheric corrosion is severe. End users include crop support wires where chemicals are used, pool fencing or chain mesh in coastal areas.

Galvanised Wire Working Specifications

Given that galvanized wire is classified according to the amount of zinc coating, the following table outlines the difference between standard, heavy galvanized and extra-high galvanized wire.

Nominal Diameter Minimum Coating Mass (g/m2)
Standard Galv. Heavy Galv. Extra-highGalv.
over 1.6 mm up to and incl. 1.90mm 210 420 630
over 1.90mm up to and incl. 2.30mm 220 440 660
over 2.30mm up to and incl. 2.70mm 230 460 690
over 2.70mm up to and incl. 3.10mm 240 480 720
over 3.10mm up to and incl. 3.50mm 260 520 780
over 3.50mm up to and incl. 3.90mm 270 540 810

Tensile Strength (Mpa)

The tensile strength is defined as the maximum load achieved in the tensile test, divided by the cross-sectional area of the wire test piece. Galvanized Wire is produced using soft, medium and hard grade wires. The following table specifies the tensile range according to the grade:

Nominal Wire Diameter Stress at 1% Elongation (Mpa)
Class A Class B Class C
over 1.6 mm up to and incl. 2.30mm 1310 1240 1170
over 2.30mm up to and incl. 3.05mm 1280 1210 1140
over 3.05mm up to and incl. 3.60mm 1240 1170 1100
over 3.60mm up to and incl. 4.80mm 1170 1100 1070
Nominal Wire Diameter Tensile Strength (Mpa)
Class A Class B Class C
over 1.6 mm up to and incl. 2.30mm 1450 1380 1310
over 2.30mm up to and incl. 3.05mm 1410 1340 1280
over 3.05mm up to and incl. 3.60mm 1410 1340 1280
over 3.60mm up to and incl. 4.80mm 1380 1280 1240
