Hot galvanized S-profiled steel wire

Attested by ISO 9001:2015 certification, JYD Tech. & Industry Co., Ltd offers hot galvanized S-profiled steel wire designed for use on the main cables of suspension bridges.

This specially crafted S-shaped steel wire serves as a protective layer for bridge main cables. The hot-dip galvanizing process ensures the steel wire is coated with a protective layer of zinc, enhancing its resistance to corrosion and environmental elements.

Compared to round steel wire, the S-shaped steel wire offers distinct advantages:

Protection for the main cable

When the main cable undergoes force-induced deformation (expansion/contraction), the coating layer on circular steel wire tends to crack. However, the S-shaped steel wire, when used for main cable winding, forms a cohesive structure where each element presses and buckles against the others. This results in a smooth outer coating, providing excellent protection for the main cable. 

Reduced exposure to corrosion

The design effectively blocks the intrusion of rainwater and sea fog condensate water, reducing corrosion from external elements and enhancing the overall service life of the main cable in suspension bridges. 

The utilization of S-shaped steel wire represents an innovative approach in the evolution of main cable winding protection for suspension bridges.
