PVC Coated Galvanized Gabion and Hexagonal Wire Netting used in River Channel
Gabions are an excellent solution for use when a gabion wall, or revetment needs a stronger than normal face. The units can be used where there are higher loads within the gabion structure or in situations where a higher abrasion resistance is required on the face of the gabion. This can occur for example in river or lake works where there is the risk of ice movement and increased potential for damage.
Our gabion baskets are made from high quality steel wire, which is heavily galvanised to provide long term corrosion protection. An additional protective polymeric coating is also applied for gabions that are to be used in more aggressive environments, or where a longer design life is required.
In order to obtain higher abrasion resistance and to improve the front face strength, the front or one side of gabions is produced with steel wire mesh of diameter 3.4mm. The other faces of the gabion are produced with mesh of diameter 2.7 mm. In order to reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire having a greater diameter.
