PET (polyethylene terephthalate) coated wire hanger and apparatus and method of manufacturing the same

Abstract

The present invention discloses a PET-coated wire for a hanger wherein the wire is coated with PET to form a PET coating having a thickness of 0.03 to 0.05 mm, and a hanger made of the wire. The PET coating apparatus for a wire used for a hanger of the present invention comprises a preheating device 20 for preheating the cleaned wire 10 to 220 to 250° C., an extruder 30 and a dice 40 for coating the preheated wire 10 with PET to form a PET coating having a thickness of 0.03 to 0.05 mm, a cooling bath 50 for cooling the PET-coated wire 100, and a winding device 60 for drawing out and winding the cooled wire. The cooling bath 50 of the present invention is designed such that the wire passes through the cooling bath 50 having a length of 5 m three times for sufficient cooling when the wire proceeds at a high speed of 220 to 300 m/min.
