Gabion wire mesh

Gabion box, gabion basket, gabion mesh, hexagonal wire mesh, Gabion and Mattress Gabion mesh is usually designed in box frame, because this kind of frame has obvious advantages. Stone cage net is a kind of cage net which is made of mantel wire mesh (hexagonal wire mesh), the material of resin gabion mesh are steel and highly polymerized gum plastics compound. After wrapping with a special kind of optimized high anticorrosion resin film and several complex processes, gabion mesh has some obvious advantages, such as corrosion resistance and improving the protective function in the highly polluted environment. this kind of mesh mainly used in river, sea and highly polluted area.

Gabions are baskets manufactured from 8x10 double twisted hexagonal woven steel wire mesh, as per ASTM A975-97 Gabions are filled with stones at the project site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, channel linings, and weirs for erosion control projects. The steel wire used in the manufacture of the gabion is heavily Galvan (zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal [Zn-5 Al-MM] alloy) coated soft temper steel. A PVC coating is then applied to provide additional protection for use in polluted, contaminated or aggressive environments: in salt, fresh water, acid soil or wherever the risk of corrosion is present. The PVC coating has a nominal thickness of 0.02 in. (0.50 mm). The gabion is divided into cells by diaphragms positioned at approximately 3 ft (0.9 m) centers. To reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedge with a wire having a greater diameter. Gabions shall be manufactured and shipped with all components mechanically connected at the production facility.
