Abstract
This paper introduces the application of galvanized low-carbon steel wire for communication in the industry. Galvanized low-carbon steel wire is widely used in the communication field due to its excellent mechanical and electrical properties, corrosion resistance and high fatigue strength. Galvanized low-carbon steel wire is produced according to the relevant national standards GB/T346-1984.
1 Introduction
With the rapid development of science and technology, the communication industry has also rapidly developed. The application of lines and wires in communications is becoming more and more widely used. Galvanized low-carbon steel wire is a kind of wire widely used in the communication field.
2 General information
Galvanized low-carbon steel wire is a type of wire which is made of low-carbon steel wire through galvanizing process. The method of galvanizing is different. It can be divided into hot-dip galvanizing and electro-galvanizing. Hot-dip galvanizing has a galvanizing layer with a thickness of more than 10um. The often used electro-galvanizing method has a galvanizing layer of more than 1um. The galvanizing layer will protect the inside of the wire from rust and corrosion, increasing the service life of the wire and providing it with a comprehensive physical and mechanical properties.
3 Performance Requirements
The performance of galvnized low carbon steel wire must meet the technical requirements of various national standards. The performance parameters generally include size, tensile strength, elongation, hardness, flexibility and surface quality, among which size is the basic requirement.
4 Mechanical Properties
The mechanical properties of galvanized low-carbon steel wire refer to the strength, plasticity, ductility and fatigue strength of the steel wire. The strength represents the application range of the wire when used. The higher the strength, the wider the range of application. The plasticity represents the plastic deformation ability of the wire, and the ductility represents the fracture roughness of the wire during use. The lower the fracture roughness, the better. Moreover, fatigue strength represents the bearing capacity of the wire during use under cyclic loads. High fatigue strength ensures the reliable application of the wire.
5 Process Flow
The production process of galvanized low-carbon steel wire is complicated and has certain requirements for the quality of the end product. Generally speaking, the process flow is as follows: wire drawing-annealing-galvanizing-pickling-coiling. Each process has strict requirements for the quality of the finished product.
6 Applications
Galvanized low-carbon steel wire is extensively used in the communication field due to its excellent mechanical and electrical properties, corrosion resistance and high fatigue strength. It can be used in terminal connectors, line sockets, communication cables, and transmission lines.
7 Summary
Galvanized low-carbon steel wire has excellent mechanical and electrical properties, corrosion resistance, and high fatigue strength. It is widely used in the communication field. The performance of galvanized low-carbon steel wire must meet the requirements of various national standards. Every production process has strict requirements for the quality of the finished product. In addition, galvanized low-carbon steel wire produced according to the relevant national standard GB/T346-1984 is favored by more and more industries.
