2x1x1m PVC Coated Gabion Basket

Materials:

• Gabion boxes can be constructed from various materials, including:
  • Hot-dip galvanized wire: This High quality galvanized wire is coated with a layer of zinc through the hot-dip galvanization process for corrosion resistance.
  • Zinc-5%Al or 10%Al-mixed rare earth alloy coating (Galfan): Galfan is a corrosion-resistant coating that offers a longer lifetime compared to standard hot-dip galvanization.
  • PVC coated wire: Hot-dip galvanized steel wire can be further coated with PVC (polyvinyl chloride) in various colors for added protection and aesthetic appeal.
  • PVC coated wire
  • Heavy-duty galvanized wire
  • 
    

Tensile Strength and Elongation:

• Tensile strength: The welded mesh with high tensile .
• Welded mesh gabion box materials have a tensile strength ranging from 350 to 500 megapascals (Mpa).
• Elongation: The materials have an elongation of at least 12%, which indicates their flexibility and ability to withstand stress without breaking.

Zinc Coating:

• Zinc coating levels are specified for different components of the gabion box:
  • Mesh wire: Zinc coating on the mesh wire is at least 230 grams per square meter (g/M2).
  • Selvedge wire: Zinc coating on the selvedge wire is at least 245 grams per square meter (g/M2).
  • Lacing wire: Zinc coating on the lacing wire is at least 230 grams per square meter (g/M2).

Mesh Opening and Wire Diameter:

• The galvanized gabion baskets come in various mesh opening sizes:
  • Mesh openings include 6x8cm, 8x10cm, and 10x12cm.
• Wire diameters for the mesh wire include:
  • 2.2mm
  • 2.7mm
  • 3.0mm

These specifications provide a comprehensive understanding of the materials, coatings, and dimensions of the gabion boxes, which are essential factors for their performance and suitability in various applications such as erosion control, retaining walls, and environmental protection projects.
