Iron wire, as one of the popular metal products, is widely used in many fields. According
to the producing process, it can be divided into black annealed wire and galvanized iron
wire. Black annealed wire, also called binding wire or annealing wire.Galvanized wire is
known as GI wire. To have a better understanding of these two wire products, there are
listed some of the similarities and differences between them.

The similarities between black annealed and galvanized wire are the material, features
and application. As the popular iron wire products, they are made of low carbon steel
wire. With the advantages of good elasticity and flexibility, the annealed wire and GI wire
are widely used in construction, handicrafts, the wire mesh manufacturing, highway fence,
product packaging, daily use and other fields.

The main difference betweenannealed and galvanized wire is the production process.
After pickling, pultrusion molding, high-temperature annealing process the annealed wire
is finished. GI wire’s making process is more complicated. To produce the GI wire, hot-
dip galvanized and cooling are necessary. Therefore, the black annealed wire is softer
than GI wire, and the galvanized wire has stronger corrosion resistance.
