Patented zinc-aluminum coated wire rod
Steel wire rod with Zn-Al coating for re-drawing and applications in maritime, offshore and highly corrosive environments.
Developed for and resisting in the most difficult environments
The patented Zn-Al coated wire rod is a semi-product designed for subsequent re-drawing processes and applications in highly corrosive environments.
The combination of heat treatment (patenting) and Zn-Al 95/5 coating guarantees maximum protection against maritime corrosion, upholding its machinability.
