Thecoating method may be hot dipping in a bath of molten zinc or by means of an aqueous solution ofsuitable electrolyte. In the hot dipping process wiping media may be used to modify the mass ofcoating3.2zinc or zinc alloy coatingzinc alloy is zinc to which deliberately other elements are added in order to obtain particularcharacteristics. In all cases the quantity of zinc in the alloy shall be minimum 50 %.

Designations ending in B relate to classes usually but not always obtained by (zinccoating) and subsequent drawing. Classes C and D are standard classes for low mass coating whichare usually produced but not exclusively, produced by hot zinc dipping and then wiping.b A x 3 relates to very high mass requirement three times higher than class A. Other multiples ofClass A are possible and these classes will be identified in the same way, e.g. A x 4.4 Coating requirements4.1 Requirements for the coatings materialThe zinc or zinc alloy used for the coating shall comply with the standard EN 1179. For zinc-alloygrades not mentioned in the EN the alloy shall be specified at the enquiry and order. For Zn95Al5reference is made to ASTM B 750 with or without mischmetall (MM).The ingot of the material used for the zinc coating shall be of minimum 99,9 % purity unless otherwisestated in the relevant product standard or other specification in the order. Coatings applied byelectrolysis shall contain a minimum of 99 % zinc.SIST EN 10244-2:2002
Page 6EN 10244-2:20014.2 Requirements relating to coating on the wire4.2.1 Coating massThe minimum mass of zinc per unit of surface area of the wire shall comply with the requirements ofTable 1.If no class of zinc coating or no coating mass is specified the coating shall be called "regular coating".Such a coating shall be not less than 1 g zinc mass per Kg of zinc coated wire equivalent to thecoating mass in g/m2 not less than two times the wire diameter expressed in mm.The requirements for zinc-aluminium coatings of type Zn 95Al 5 are given in Table 2.For other zinc alloy coatings, the manufacturer and supplier shall agree on the required coating mass.4.2.2 Appearance of coatingThe coating applied to the wire shall be reasonably smooth and as evenly distributed as industrialtechnology allows and not show discontinuities such as bare patches, dross contamination etc.NOTEThe Zn 95Al5 zinc-aluminium alloy might show difference in colour and become darker with time.This does not affect the corrosion protection performance.4.2.3 Dipping testWhen specified the dipping (immersion) test shall be carried out according to the procedure detailedin 5.3. However it should be pointed out that there is no direct link between the number of dips andthe mass of the coating and that the result is determined as much by the conditions of manufacture ofthe coating as by the uniformity of the coating.Table 3 gives the minimum number of immersions for coatings of classes A and AB.The dipping test does not apply to class B, C and D.SIST EN 10244-2:2002
