Mild Steel PVC Coated Gabion Double Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh Baskets

PVC coated mild steel double twisted hexagonal wire mesh baskets

Product Description:

Gabions are defined as double twisted woven wire mesh box shaped baskets of various sizes and dimensions.
The selvedges of the gabion baskets are the thicker perimeter and edge wires to which the wire mesh is secured as to withstand sudden or gradual stress from any direction.
Reinforcing wires are the thicker wires incorporated into the netting during fabrication.
The diaphragms are internal wire mesh partitions which divide the gabions into cells.
Lacing or tie wire is the wire used to assemble and join the gabion units.
Connecting wires are the internal wires used to prevent the gabions from bulging.
Alternative fasteners are ASTM approved wire fasteners used in lieu of lacing wire.

PVC coated steel double twisted hexagonal wire mesh baskets filled with stone used for various applications including but not limited to
retaining walls, mechanically stabilized soil retaining structures, stream and river bank protection, slope paving, outfall structures, weirs and drop structures etc…

If you want use the PVC coated gabion in retaining wall, channel linings and slope protection applications, you may need the higher gabions, you can choose the PVC coated gabion box, which has maximum 1.5 meter height. If you need higher, just pile the 1 meter height gabions up for protection.

If you need more flexible PVC coated gabions to be used in coastal protection, river bank protection and other project, which need the lower gabions, you can choose the PVC coated gabion mattress. The maximum height of gabion mattress is 0.5 meter and minimum height can be 0.17 m. It is more flexible and easy to operating during using.

Gabions offer many advantages over similar construction.

PVC Coated Gabions and rock mattresses

PVC coated gabion has a rigid and solid structure, which can be double twisted and triple twisted. Double twisted structure is most widely used structure, which is solid enough for common protective applications. In some harsh conditions projects, such as flood control, coastal protection, channeling lining and other projects, the double twisted structure can not satisfy the strength requirements, so you can choose the triple twisted PVC coated gabion. Triple twisted structure makes the gabion a higher strength and stability structure. The high strength can resist the high impact from flood, sea water and other external forces.

Durability
Our PVC coated wire gabions and mattresses are particularly well suited for an extended life in harsh and corrosive environments.

Strength and flexibility
rock-mattresses, and rock fall netting are constructed from double-twist hexagonal woven mesh. This provides inherent strength and flexibility. Also, if a wire is cut or broken the mesh cannot "unravel".

Porosity
Gabion and rock-mattress structures are porous to prevent build up of hydrostatic pressure and are able to withstand differential settlement.
