The differences between wrought iron guardrails and zinc steel guardrails are: different manufacturing processes, different prices, different characteristics, and different service lives.
1. Different manufacturing processes
Zinc guardrails are generally made of galvanized steel pipes through multiple processes.
Wrought iron guardrails are generally made of cast iron.
2. Different prices.
Zinc guardrails are slightly more expensive, generally ranging from 20-20 yuan per meter.
Iron guardrails are very cheap, generally ranging from 15 yuan per meter.
3. Different characteristics.
Zinc guardrails are durable, rust-proof, have a variety of colors, are easy to install, and have a long service life.
Iron guardrails have the advantages of being firm, diverse in style, highly plastic, and inexpensive, but they are single in color and easy to rust.
4. Different service lives
Generally, the service life of poor-quality zinc steel guardrails is about 10 years, while that of good-quality zinc steel guardrails can reach 50 years.
Wrought iron guardrails are prone to rust and require regular maintenance. Generally, the service life of poor quality wrought iron guardrails is 3-5 years, while the service life of good quality wrought iron guardrails is more than 10 years.
