This RDS6# Meyer rod is an open process winding wire rod, the prepared wet film thickness is 13.7μm, the diameter of the steel wire is 0.15mm, and the effective coating width is 30cm.
United StatesRDS wire rod has two different conventional process coating rods of wire winding type and extrusion type, and there are also coating rods with special processes such as open type and double wire winding type, which are suitable for special coating film experimental scenarios, RDS as a professional coating rod manufacturer imported from the United States, has a history of 80+ years, and its wire rod coaters are well-known in CHINA and are widely used in different subdivided industries.
Open wire rods are one of the special coating rods that reduce clogging and eliminate stitches for higher viscosity coatings. The grooves created by spaced wrap lines are (see picture) and are shallow and allow heavy paint to flow better. The smaller lines create a small break in the paint flow so that the paint can be soaked more completely. Although open wire rods are not as durable as double spools, they are also less expensive.
