Zinc Wire For Thermal Spray Metalizing
Platt
Brothers manufactures zinc and zinc/aluminum alloy
wires for metalized thermal spray coatings.
Zinc Wire metalized thermal spray
coatings using zinc based alloy wires are crucial
in the manufacture of various electronic, capacitor,
automotive, heat exchanger, tube & pipe products.
Corrosion protection of bridges,
locks & dams, above ground storage tanks,
light poles, and other critical infrastructure
is another important application for metalized
thermal spayed coatings of zinc and zinc/aluminum
alloy wires.

drums, and spools.
Platt
Zinc Wires
are available as either bright or lubricated finishes
depending upon the thermal spray equipment used.
Same
day shipping service can be provided from either
our Zinc Wire Mill Production Facility in Waterbury,
Connecticut, our Peru, IL or our Little Rock,
Arkansas warehouse, depending upon available stock
and destination.
Pure
Zinc Wire:
Platt zinc wire is 99.99%+ pure zinc wire. A pure
zinc wire protective coating offers atmospheric
corrosion protection to steel and galvanic anti
corrosion prevention on other non ferrous metals
superior to conventional anti corrosion paint
coatings by three basic forms:
| 1. |
Barrier
protection |
| 2. |
Formation
of a zinc anti corrosion barrier coating that
provides corrosion protection to both the
coating and the steel from the environment. |
| 3. |
Galvanic
action; the zinc coating corrodes in preference
to the steel. |

85/15 Zinc/Aluminum Wire:
Plattzinc 85/15 wire is an alloy of 85% zinc and
15% aluminum by weight. When sprayed onto steel,
the alloy produces a coating with the best anti
corrosion characteristics of both metals for optimum
corrosion protection. This corrosion resistance
alloy is especially effective on steel against
sodium chloride(salt), sulfur dioxide and marine
environments.
