Galvanised steel wire for cable armouring

ANBAO specialises in galvanised steel wire for cable armouring. The process can be applied for land cables according to EN10257-1 (zinc or zinc alloy coated non-alloy steel wire for armouring for power cables and telecommunication cables-Part1 Land cables). Zinc coating complies with EN10244-2 Class A coating and also Class C coating. By the advanced galvanising wiping system, the wire surface will not have zinc lumps or carbon foam problems. The adherence of the zinc can pass the wrapping test and the conformity can achieve a good record in the dipping test. The wires will be one length without welding after galvanisation in a 500-800kg coil, and even coils with welding before galvanisation. Anbao also provides galvanised steel wire for submarine cables to EN10257-2 (zinc or zinc alloy coated non-alloy steel wire for armouring for power cables and telecommunication cables-Part2 Submarine cables). Grade 34, 65 and 85~165 are all available. Anbao Corp – China Website : www.anbao.com
