Twist Woven hexagonal wire mesh gabions

 

Hex mesh woven wire gabions in following finishes:
Hot-dipped galvanized;
Electro galvanized;
Hot-dipped galvanized then PVC / vinyl / polymer coated;
Galfan ( zinc aluminum galvanizing);
Galfan then pvc coated.

Comparing with gabions of welded mesh, twist woven mesh gabions offer flexible structures with less strength.

Gabions containers Made of Hot Dip Galvanized Woven Wire Mesh

Hot dip zinc coated galvanized steel gabion mattress mesh
G.I. Wire mesh heavy galvanized conform to BS443 for Zinc coating and BS1052.
Mesh size: 80 x 100, mesh shape: hexagonal.

Zinc Coating
Zinc coating: Minimum quantities of Zinc shall meet the requirements of EN 10244-2
Adhesion of zinc coating: The adhesion of the zinc coating to the wire shall be such that, when the wire is wrapped six turns around
A mandrel having four times the diameter of the wire, it does not flake or crack when rubbing it with the bare fingers in accordance with EN 10244.

PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) Coating (UV Stabilized)
PVC coating thickness: Nominal - 0.5 mm, Minimum - 0.38 mm
Specific weight: 1.3 kg/dm3 - 1.35 kg/dm3 in accordance with ISO 1183
Hardness: between 50 and 60 Shore D, according to ISO 868
Tensile strength: Higher than 21 MPa, according to ISO 527
Elongation at break: not less than 200% in accordance with ISO 527

Wire mesh (10x12 mesh as example):

Mesh type "D"(mm) Zinc +PVC coated
