Hexagonal wire

Hexagonal Wire Fence 

 Introduction

Hexagonal wire mesh is also known by the name of chicken wire, gabion mesh and hexagonal wire netting. 

Materials of wire are low carbon steel, stainless steel, zinc-5% aluminum alloy (galfan), iron. Surface treatments 

are galvanized, PVC coating or galvanized plus PVC coating. Hex mesh is usually used as fence for chicken, rabbit,

 duck, geese and so on. It can protect vegetable, flower or small plant from poultry and small animals. Chicken wire 

also can decorate furniture, cabinet and dresser, manufacture sculptures, or used as window screen and door screen. 

It can be made into rockfall netting and stucco mesh. Heavy hexagonal wire mesh could used for gabion basket and

 gabion sack, it can control and guide water or flood, used as retaining walls, channel lining, in emergency situation 

and river training work.

Specification

Material: low carbon steel wire, stainless steel wire, iron wire.

• Surface treatment: zinc-5% aluminum alloy (galfan), galvanized, PVC coated, galvanized plus PVC coated.

• Mesh opening shape: hexagon.

• Weaving method:

• normal twist (double twisted or triple twisted).

• reverse twist (double twisted).

• Galvanized species:

• Electro galvanized before weaving.

• Electro galvanized after weaving.

• Hot dipped galvanized before weaving.

• Hot dipped galvanized after weaving.

• Two standard zinc coating for hot dipped galvanized:

• Normal zinc coating: 50-60 g/m².

• Heavy zinc coating: 200-260 g/m², maximum zinc coating is 300 g/m².

• PVC coating color: green, black, gray, orange, yellow, red, white, blue.

Application

Hexagonal wire mesh has wide application range, such as

• Feeding chicken, rabbit, duck, geese, fish and other poultry or small animals. Style can be fence and cage.

• Protect vegetable, flower or small plant from poultry and small animals.

• Fruit cage, defense mouse, bird, cat, dog, squirrel and fox.

• Indoor decoration, window screen, door screen, children play ground fence.

• Arts, crafts and sculptures.

• Sieve, filter and mold control.

• Hold plaster, cement on roof, wall, ceiling, floor or tile to reinforce them.

• Equipment and machines protection, highway fence, tennis court fence, protection fence for road greenbelt.

• Prevent rocks and debris from falling onto roads and railways.

• Used for gabion to control and guide water or flood, also can used as retaining wall and channel lining.

• 16 gauge galvanized wire 1 inch mesh opening hexagonal wire netting for paddle tennis and platform tennis wire fence.

Features

• Insulation, refractory, durable.

• Resistant to corrosion, rust, oxidation and scour.

• Compared with traditional galvanized, galfan hexagonal wire mesh has a good corrosion resistance.

• Stable structure, smooth surface, uniform mesh size, high tensile strength.

• Unroll easily, cut easily.

• Easy to transport and install.

• Ensure good air flow, convenience feeder to feed poultry.

• Allow vegetation regrowth as gabion or rockfall netting.

• Flexible in all direction and would not spread when it is broke.

• Electro galvanized wire mesh has lower cost and bright color than hot dipped galvanized.

• Hot dipped galvanized hexagonal wire mesh has better corrosion and oxidation resistance than electro galvanized.

• Galvanized before weaving hexagonal wire meshes offer better performance of rust and corrosion resistance than galvanized after weaving.

• Galvanized and PVC coated hexagonal wire mesh have longer life, low cost.
