Hexagonal mesh baskets are woven from twisted metal wire using a machine, with each strand twisted once in one direction. The thickness ranges from 0.15 to 0.5m (including 0.5m), also known as gabions and matting. The baskets are divided into cells by partitions. To enhance the structural strength of the mesh baskets, all panel edges are made with larger diameter wires.
Galvanized Steel Wire Mesh Basket
Basic Introduction
Galvanized wire mesh baskets are woven into hexagonal mesh (hexagonal mesh) by machines twisting a single wire twice, with thickness ranging from 0.15m to 0.5m (including 0.5m). Also known as stone baskets and padding, the stone basket pads are divided into several cells by partitions. To enhance the structural strength of the stone basket pads, all panel edges are made with wires of larger diameters.
The stone笼mat is categorized into two main types: surface metal coating and surface PVC/PE coating. The metal wire diameter used varies according to the size of the hexagonal shape. The production process involves weaving, cutting, edge locking, and binding to form the stone笼 and mat. The stone笼 and mat are supplied in a folded state.
Basic Parameters
(1) Aperture: 60*80mm, 80*100mm, 80*120mm, 100*120mm, 120*150mm
The length of the double-stranded twist must not be less than 50mm to ensure that the metal coating and PVC coating of the wires in the twist section are not damaged.
(2) Wire Diameter: The stone笼 net is divided into three types of wire diameters – mesh wire, edge wire, and binding wire.
The wire mesh range is from 2mm to 4mm.
2. Edge wires are generally thicker than mesh wires, ranging from 0.5mm to 1mm in thickness.
3. Binding wire is generally smaller than mesh wire, with 2.2mm being the most common size.
(3) Wire Tensile Strength: Not less than 38 kg/m², 380 N/mm²
Surface Treatment
Electroplated zinc. Zinc coating: 10g/m². Poor corrosion resistance.
2. Hot-dip galvanized. The zinc coating can reach up to 300g/m². Strong corrosion resistance.
3. Galfan (Aluminum-Zinc Alloy). This is available in two types of materials: Zinc-5% Aluminum-Mixed Rare Earth Alloy Wire and Zinc-10% Aluminum Mixed Rare Earth Alloy Wire. Strong corrosion resistance.
4. PVC Coated. The coating thickness typically covers 1.0mm, for instance: after coating, 2.7mm becomes 3.7mm. Strong corrosion resistance.
(5) Partition: Add a partition every meter along the length of the stone笼net
(6) Dimensions: Customizable

Function and Application Introduction
Primarily used for river channel, bank, and roadbed slope protection structures. It not only prevents the riverbank from being eroded by water flow and wind waves, but also achieves natural convection exchange between the water body and the soil beneath the slope, maintaining ecological balance. Planting greenery on the slope can enhance the landscape and greenery effects.
1. Galvanized steel wire coated with PVC is a hexagonal mesh where a protective PVC (plastic) layer is wrapped around the galvanized wire, then woven into various sizes of hexagonal meshes. This PVC coating significantly enhances the mesh's lifespan and allows for color choices to blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural environment.
2. Zinc-5% Aluminum-Alloy Mixed Rare Earth Steel Wire Coated with PVC: The surface of zinc-5% aluminum-alloy mixed rare earth steel wire is coated with a layer of PVC protective layer, which is then woven into various specifications of hexagonal wire mesh. This PVC protective layer will significantly increase the service life of the mesh, and by choosing different colors, it can blend seamlessly with the surrounding natural environment.
