Galvanized chain link fence( diamond wire mesh)/ PVC Coated Chain Link mesh

Introduction:

Chain link mesh for fencing, woven from steel wire, is probably the most widely used and versatile of all fencing fabrics, available in a variety of wire gauges and mesh sizes to suit specific applications.Available in three finishes, heavily galvanised, P.V.C coated with a bright core or for double protection, PVC coated with a galvanized wire core.Chain link fence is recommended for use for House Garden fronts and divisions, Children's Playgrounds, Playing Fields, Recreational Grounds.

Materials:

Stainless steel, electro galvanized, hot dip galvanized, low carbon steel, aluminum alloy wire.

Surface Treatment:

PVC coated, electro or hot dipped galvanized. 

After surface treatment chain link fence has a heavy galvanized coating to ensure a long life.

CHOOSING THE BEST TYPE :

The main considerations are the height of the fence, the thickness of the wire, and the finish of the wire.

Height

Chain link fences may be anything from 3 feet the 12 feet high, the highest being generally used for surround sports areas where it is important to prevent balls escaping. Lower chain link fences for use around homes can be fitted with privacy slats.

Thickness of wire

The thickness of the wire for chain link fences can be quite confusing. Manufacturers will usually refer to the 

thickness of the wire being a certain 'gauge', for example 11 or 12 gauge. Oddly, the higher the number of the

 gauge, the thinner the wire. Thus, 11 gauge corresponds to a thickness of 0.120 inches, and a 12 gauge 

corresponds to a thickness of only 0.105 inches. Although gauges can vary between 6 and 14, the most 

common gauges for chain link fencing are 11, 11.5 and 12 gauge.

Finishes

Chain link fence is normally made from zinc galvanized steel wire, with the galvanizing being applied either 

before or after the weaving of the wire. It is preferable for the galvanizing to the applied before weaving, to 

ensure that all surfaces are fully galvanized.  Of course you can also select the PVC/PE coated chain link fence .

Edge type : Closed edge and twisted barbed edge.
