Galvanized Wire Rope
Galvanized Wire Rope, Heavy Duty Galvanized Wire Rope, Marine Grade Galvanized Wire Rope, Corrosion Resistant Galvanized Wire Rope.
GI Wire Rope is a strong and durable product made through galvanization. This technique involves applying a zinc coating to steel sheets or wires, which are subsequently immersed in a molten bath. The zinc layer resists rusting and protects against severe conditions and chemical exposure. Dhanlaxmi Steel, one of the trusted galvanized wire rope manufacturers in India, offers different types that meet varied requirements. Our rods last longer than many other options, including stainless steel in certain uses. GI wire rope is valued for its high tensile strength and is widely used in handrails, roofing, walling, and other structural needs.
Glavanized wire ropes have a wide range of applications. They are often used for protection and fencing around homes, offices, and industrial areas. Barbed wire, chain link fencing and concertina wire made from galvanized wire rope keep properties safe from trespassers and animals. In construction, these ropes are used to bind materials and support large constructions. Civil engineers also use them to make gabions. In agriculture, they support vineyards, orchards, and vegetable farming, ensuring proper growth of grapes and tomatoes. With the rise of solar energy, galvanized wire ropes are also used in solar fencing to protect valuable panels.
Galvanized Steel Wire Rope, Flexible Galvanized Wire Rope, High Strength Galvanized Wire Rope, Durable Galvanized Wire Rope for Industrial Use.
Marine Galvanized Rope
galvanized Wire Rope
The ropes are designed to last even in tough conditions. An even zinc coating prevents rust and keeps them strong in all weather. They are easy to handle and bundle without much effort. Standard galvanized wire rope specifications include a construction of 1 × 7, with a diameter of 3/8" (9.5mm). They have a tensile strength of up to 18,000 lbs. Options such as galvanized wire rope 12 mm are also available, depending on the application. These features make them a reliable choice in industries where strength and safety are most important.
Every galvanized wire rope is tested for strength, coating quality, and durability. Packaging is done in coils or bundles to ensure safe handling and easy transport. Each product meets industry standards before it reaches the customer. If you are looking for a trusted galvanized wire rope supplier offering quality at an affordable galvanized wire rope price, we are here to meet your needs.
Equivalent Grade Galvanized Wire Rope
| Common Name | Typical Industry Label | Typical Application / Notes |
| Improved Plow Steel | IPS | General-purpose wire rope; balanced strength and ductility. |
| Extra Improved Plow Steel | EIPS (also written EIP or XIP) | Higher tensile strength than IPS; widely used for hoisting, rigging. |
| Extra Extra Improved Plow Steel | EEIPS | Very high tensile grades for heavy-duty applications. |
| ASTM Zinc-coated strand spec | ASTM A475 / A363 (zinc-coated strand / wire strand specs) | Defines zinc coating classes and grade categories for galvanized strand/rope. |
| Stainless grade (for corrosion-sensitive use) | AISI 302 / 304 / 316 | Used where corrosion resistance is required (marine, architectural). |
Galvanized Wire Rope Chemical Composition
| Element | Typical Range (% by weight) | Purpose / Effect |
| Carbon (C) | ~0.45 – 0.70 | Controls hardness and tensile strength (higher C → higher strength, less ductile). |
| Manganese (Mn) | ~0.50 – 1.00 | Improves strength and toughness. |
| Silicon (Si) | ~0.10 – 0.40 | Deoxidizer; slightly increases strength. |
| Phosphorus (P) | ≤ 0.04 | Impurity — kept low to maintain ductility. |
| Sulfur (S) | ≤ 0.05 | Impurity — kept low to avoid brittleness. |
| Iron (Fe) | Balance (~97%+) | Base metal. |
Physical Properties of Galvanized Wire Rope
| Property | IPS | EIPS | EEIPS / 1960 / 2160 classes | Notes |
| Tensile strength (wire), MPa | ~1570 – 1770 MPa (approx. Level 2–3) | ~1770 – 1960 MPa (approx. Level 3–4) | ~1960 – 2160 MPa (Level 4–6; some "1960" & "2160" grade ropes) | Wire tensile determines rope breaking strength — rope construction and core also affect final breaking load. |
| Min. breaking force (example) | Depends on diameter & construction (see manufacturer's load tables) | Always use manufacturer’s breaking-strength tables for exact diameter & construction. | ||
| Elongation (wire) | Moderate — generally decreases as tensile increases | Lower than IPS | Lowest ductility; highest strength | Higher-strength wires trade ductility for strength — affects fatigue life. |
| Density | ~7.85 g/cm³ (steel) | Zinc coating adds negligible mass per length relative to core steel. | ||
| Zinc coating (galvanizing) | Common coatings: ASTM Class A / B with coating weights ~150–400 g/m² (varies) | Coating class determines corrosion resistance and service life; heavier coatings last longer in corrosive environments. | ||
