The Wire Back Silt Fence is a strong erosion control fence designed for areas with demanding silt and erosion control requirements. Offering more strength and stability than a standard silt fence, wire back models include a wire fencing that lines the entire fabric of the fence. This strengthens the fence for use against large amounts of sediment or silt.
