Technical specifications of the EN 10244-2 standard
The European standard EN 10244-2 establishes strict requirements for the quality and application methods of protective coatings on steel wire, made of pure zinc or zinc alloys. This regulation is a key guiding document for EV Group China specialists in the production of wire products, ensuring their durability and corrosion resistance in aggressive environments.
The standard details the following parameters:
- Regulations for the surface density of the zinc layer (coating weight per unit area).
- Requirements for the physical and mechanical characteristics of coatings, including their ductility and adhesion to the steel base.
- Methodology for conducting control tests: from checking the uniformity of the layer to assessing resistance to mechanical deformation.
- Classification of round wire depending on the type of zinc alloy used and the galvanization technology.
Adherence to EN 10244-2 regulations allows EV Group China to guarantee that the supplied products meet global quality standards, ensuring reliable protection of metal products from atmospheric and chemical influences throughout their entire service life.
