Fences are available in a variety of materials, the most common of which are vinyl coated and galvanized. The Galvanized chain link fence features a coating on its surface that is silvery in color, which improves the durability of the fence. Vinyl coated chain link fencing is also made of metal, however, it is coated with vinyl instead of zinc. When you are ready to buy, you may be torn between the two of them. Next, Wanzhi Steel takes you through a review of what the differences are between these two different materials of fencing. (Chat on WhatsApp / Email Directly)

What Is Galvanizing?

Galvanizing is a surface treatment technique in which iron or steel is coated with a layer of zinc for aesthetic and rust prevention purposes. Zinc is a highly corrosion-resistant metal that insulates iron from oxygen and water so that it cannot undergo the chemical reactions required to rust. The main methods of galvanizing are hot dip galvanizing (HDG) and electro galvanizing (EG).

What Is Galvanized Chain Link Fence?

Galvanized chain link fence is generally processed from electro-galvanized wire or hot-dip galvanized wire. The chain link fence can be coated before or after weaving. After galvanizing, the fence will be more durable and can last 20 years or more. The galvanized chain link fence produced by Wanzhi Steel can be used for stadium fencing, animal fencing, road green belt protection fencing, gabion fencing, etc.

Advantages

1. Cost-effective. Galvanized fence is a more economical choice compared to PVC coated fence.
2. Long life span. It can last for decades or more, and you don’t need to replace it as often.
3. Versatile. Galvanized fence is the first for most people. It is the more classic hook-and-loop fence. Whether it is used in a residential area or an industrial area, it is suitable.

Disadvantages

1. Slightly less durable. It wears out a little faster when exposed to harsh environmental conditions.
2. The appearance is rather homogeneous. The galvanized fence only has a silver appearance. If you are looking for a higher aesthetic, then galvanized chain link fence may not be the best choice.

What Is Vinyl Coating?

Vinyl coating is a type of coating consisting of synthetic resin or plastic. It is a thin protective layer of a substance that is deposited or applied to the surface of an object. It is primarily intended to improve its performance and to create a protective barrier against surface deterioration due to the reaction of the object to its environment.

What Is Vinyl Coated Chain Link Fence?

Vinyl coated chain link fence is highly resistant to corrosion and durability. Fences made of this material will rust or break down more slowly. In addition, this type of chain link fence is available in different colors that can add color and character to the fence.

Advantages

1. Durable. The metal wire is encased in a protective layer of vinyl that does not rust or break away easily.
2. More attractive. Vinyl coated fence is available in a variety of colors, such as green, red, yellow, white, black, etc. It can be applied to different occasions and make it look more attractive.
3. Customizable. You can customize different styles of vinyl hook fences for different occasions.

Disadvantages

1. Expensive. Vinyl-coated fences are generally more expensive than galvanized fences. If you don’t have much of a budget, vinyl coated is not the best choice.
2. Coating breakage. Although vinyl coating is strong, it can break under certain circumstances, especially when scratched by sharp objects. Once the coating is damaged, it speeds up the rate at which it ages.

    Chicken wire mesh fence Types

    Here are two types of wire we often sell, galvanized chicken wire and PVC coated chicken wire.

    1. Galvanized Chicken Wire

    Iron wire is usually coated with zinc for corrosion and rust prevention purposes. When chicken fencing wire is protected with a zinc coating, it can be made more durable. This type of poultry wire fencing is generally not very expensive and is the primary choice for many families raising poultry.

    2. PVC Coated Chicken Wire/Vinyl Coated Chicken Wire

    For aesthetic purposes, as well as not having to be replaced for years, it is good to coat galvanized metal wire with PVC. However, this type of chicken netting will be more expensive than the wire that is only galvanized. At Wanzhi Steel, we have black chicken wire, green chicken wire mesh, and other coated poultry wire for sale. The bright colors can make your chicken coop wire more attractive.

     

    3. Stainless steel chicken wire

    Mostly use 304 or 316 stainless steel, which provides corrosion resistance superior to all metals, and is mostly used in applications that require high precision, chloride-containing environments, and high cleanliness environments. Pharmaceutical, biological, maternal, and child scientific research fields.

    How Strong Is Chicken Wire Fence?

    Chicken wire fences can enclose small animals. If you keep animals such as chickens, ducks, birds, mice, or rabbits, then you have absolutely nothing to worry about, chicken wire mesh is perfectly fine for your first choice. However, its strength prevents it from stopping larger animals, such as deer or wild boars.

    In addition, animals like foxes are also capable of tearing or chewing through the wire after perseverance, thus getting into the wire mesh. For better protection of poultry, you can choose metal wire with a thicker wire diameter so that predators will find it difficult to destroy it.

    For the size of chicken wire, you can browse this article – Chicken Wire Size.

    Can chicken wire roll rust?

    It will eventually rust, but very slowly. The rate depends on the environment in which you use it. In a normal environment, it will rust only after years of use. If you want a long-lasting and durable effect, we recommend PVC coated poultry wire or vinyl poultry netting.

    How Long Will Poultry Wire Mesh Last?

    Some types of galvanized chicken wire will last up to 20 years in the right environment. If you want your chicken mesh to last longer, you can coat it with a PVC coating. PVC coating provides stronger protection for the poultry netting, making it last for many years without Rusting, thus extending the life of the poultry nets.

    Is Chicken Wire Mesh Safe?

    Everyone probably considers safety before buying poultry wire. Poultry wire fence is relatively thin and there is always the possibility of breakage. Once the wire becomes loose, the sharp tip can cause harm to the poultry. Therefore, Wanzhi Steel recommends that you check your chicken coop or fence regularly and maintain it promptly.

    Chicken mesh price

    How much does chicken wire cost?

    It is relatively inexpensive. The price of chicken wire roll depends on the diameter, coating, number of meshes, mesh size, roll length, total order quantity.

    Usually, you will get a discount when you buy in large quantities. You can contact Wanzhi Steel to get an accurate quote.

    Ⅱ. Uses of Gabion Wire Mesh

    Gabion is a cage structure made of low-carbon steel wire or PVC-coated steel wire with high corrosion resistance, high strength, and ductility, which is widely used in various projects.
    1. River management & flood control: It can be filled with stones to reinforce and protect river banks and river embankments, and build flood control dams.
    2. Slope protection: Woven gabion can be used to protect the slopes of roads and railways to prevent falling rocks, collapse, landslides, etc.
    3. Ecological restoration: Mix stones with soil to fill, plant vegetation, form ecological revetments, and be permeable and breathable.
    4. Landscape construction: Welded gabion boxes can be used to build landscape walls and decorative fences, which are strong and light-transmitting.
    5. Water conservancy projects: Reservoir and channel reinforcement and protection, and protective structures are built at spillways and flood outlets to prevent water damage.
    6. Marine engineering: Used for coastal protection to prevent wave scouring and erosion, and can be used to build protective structures for docks and piers to enhance stability.
    7. Military defense: construct temporary fortifications, such as bunkers, obstacles, etc., to provide military protection.
    8. Temporary enclosure: In construction, road maintenance, and other occasions, gabion mesh can be used to construct temporary enclosures to isolate the construction area and ensure construction safety.

    Ⅲ. Classification and structure of gabion mesh

    1. Galvanized Gabion Mesh

    Galvanized gabion mesh is made of galvanized wire. After being hot-dip galvanized, the wire is woven into gabion basket, which has strong corrosion resistance. In addition, galvanized gabion mesh does not rust easily and can be used under harsh environmental conditions. Good quality galvanized gabion mesh will remain in good condition for many years.

    2. PVC Coated Gabion Wire Mesh

    Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is an excellent material for producing screens. It can resist changes in temperature and humidity. Compared with galvanized gabion mesh, PVC coating has greater corrosion resistance. PVC coated gabion mesh has excellent durability. Moreover, this mesh is available in different colors and has great ornamental value. Therefore, it will be more expensive than other wire mesh materials.

    3. Woven gabion fence

    A mesh with hexagonal openings woven by a weaving machine, is folded into a mesh box. Compared with welded gabions, it is more flexible. It is mostly used for river bank sediment protection and building mats.

    4. Welded gabion mesh

    It is a mesh with square mesh holes welded vertically by metal wires, which is connected by accessories to form a box body. This type of gabion box is harder and relatively less flexible. It is often used in landscape and municipal gardens.

    In conclusion, both galvanized gabions and PVC coated gabions are worth investing in. You can make your choice according to your actual use and budget. If you still have questions about this, you can also choose to consult with Wanzhi Steel.

    Ⅳ. Woven VS Welded Gabion Wire Mesh

    Gabion wire mesh is available in both woven and welded processes. The opening type of woven gabion mesh is usually hexagonal. While welded gabion mesh is usually square opening or diamond shaped opening. Welded gabion mesh is made of hard galvanized steel wire, which is stronger than woven mesh. However, both woven gabion wire and welded gabion wire offer the same flexibility.

    Ⅴ. Will gabion walls rust?

    Gabion walls usually only rust in coastal areas with severe salt spray, usually on the steel frame. If you use it on land, or in areas where the humidity and pH are not so high, it will not rust so easily.

    Ⅵ. Why is it called a gabion?

    The word gabion comes from the Italian gabion, which translates as “big cage”, and this is essentially what they are – cage-like enclosures filled with inorganic material like stone, brick, or broken concrete.

    Ⅶ. Is Gabion Mesh Cheaper?

    Gabions are made of woven or welded steel wires that are either galvanized or PVC coated. They are cheaper than most building materials like concrete and can be easily assembled by anyone. As for the filler, you don’t need to buy heavy concrete or do it yourself. Crushed stone and crushed concrete are available locally at a very low cost.

    Ⅷ. How thick should a gabion wall be?

    Gabions can be cut on site to achieve your required dimensions. The standard thickness for walls up to 3m in height is 3mm. 4mm is the architectural spec, 5mm is what we would refer to as the military spec or for use on higher walls.

    Ⅸ. How long do gabion baskets last?

    The service life of gabion mesh can reach 50-100 years, which is determined by the environment it is in. If you use it in riverbanks or chemical plants, it may have a shorter lifespan. If it is used in a dry and ventilated decorative environment, its service life will reach the upper limit of the above figures. Therefore, it is highly cost-effective and a huge investment.

    Ⅹ. Are Gabion baskets safe?

    This is an important question, after all, we don’t want to choose items with dangerous factors. Since the gabion mesh is woven or welded by metal wire, it has high sturdiness, high strength, wear resistance, and other characteristics, so it is very safe.

    ⅩⅠ. What do gabions stop?

    1. Gabions are often used to build walls to prevent soil erosion. Individual gabions are often seen stacked on top of each other beside highways.
    2. To prevent rocks from falling onto roads. They can be laid on river beds to prevent erosion.
    3. Used in sloped gardens or to replace old retaining wall structures (such as sleepers, which may collapse over time).
    4. Installing a wooden top between two columnar gabions can create a durable outdoor work surface. Such as a chair or table.
    5. Gabions can be used to build fences or non-retaining walls. They are often used to separate two properties or driveways, just like traditional garden fences.
    6. Use gabions as water features. A hose is passed through the rocks and mesh holes to control the flow of water, creating a slowly flowing decorative water feature.
    7. Gardeners and landscape designers use gabions to make decorative planters. The method is to create a central compartment within the gabion for planting flowers and plants.

    What is the thumb rule for the gabion wall?

    A conservative rule-of-thumb value of base width = 2/3 wall height. Note: A professional stability analysis may determine that the gabion gravity retaining wall base width could be less or greater than the 2/3 wall height rule.

    1. 3″ x 3″ square mesh openings – 4″ – 8″ angular rock
    2. 3-1/4″ x 4-1/2″ – 8x10cm hexagonal mesh openings. Filled with 4″ – 8″ angular rock.
    3. 2-1/2″ x 3-1/4″ – 6x8cm hexagonal mesh openings. Filled with 3″ – 6″ angular rock.

    The specific gravity of rock fill material shall not be less than 2.5.

    A: Unit weight of gabion fill – based on porosity 0.30 or 30%

    B: Specific gravity of material
    C: Basalt 3.0
    D: Brick 2.0

    Do Rebar Tying Wires Rust?

    One question that many people are concerned about is whether tie wires will rust. The answer is yes, it does.

    Although the galvanized wire has the effect of corrosion and rust prevention. However, after a long period of use, the surface of the tie wire will inevitably be worn out.

    At this time, the air reacts with the wire chemically and rust appears. However, rebar tying wire does not rust in a short period. It has a long service life, up to several decades. And it is very strong and not easily damaged.

    Types of Tying Wire

    It is usually made of galvanized steel or stainless steel to prevent rust and corrosion. According to the material, it can be divided into:

    1. Galvanized Steel Tie Wire: Coated with zinc to prevent rust. Commonly used in construction and fencing.
    2. Stainless Steel Tie Wire: It is highly resistant to corrosion. Which is ideal for outdoor or marine environments.
    3. Annealed Tie Wire: It is Soft and easy to bend. Often used for tying rebar.

    It can also be classified according to shape. For more classification methods, please read – What Is Binding Wire?

    Sizes of Tying Wire

    Tying wire is available in various gauges (thicknesses).

     

    Common sizes include:
    16 Gauge: Diameter ≈ 1.29 mm (0.051 inches).
    18 Gauge: Diameter ≈ 1.02 mm (0.040 inches).
    20 Gauge: Diameter ≈ 0.81 mm (0.032 inches).

    The choice of gauge depends on the application. For example:
    16-gauge is commonly used for tying rebar.
    18-gauge is suitable for lighter tasks like fencing or bundling.

    Galvanized wire is often compared with annealed wire. This is because they both have similar uses, such as being used as Binding wire. In fact, each type of wire has unique characteristics and properties. Galvanized wire and annealed wire differ in many ways, such as treatment, flexibility, production process, and color appearance. If you are interested, keep reading to learn more details about both of them.

    Galvanized Wire Introduction

    Galvanized wire, as the name implies, is a wire coated with a zinc layer. Due to the zinc coating, the wire becomes more durable. This is because the zinc layer has the effect of preventing rust and corrosion.

    There are two types of galvanizing processes, hot-dip galvanizing and electro-galvanizing. Hot-dip galvanizing has a thicker zinc layer, up to 300 microns. Electro-galvanizing, on the other hand, has a thinner zinc layer, usually only 3-15 microns.

    This means that wire that has undergone the hot-dip galvanizing process has better corrosion protection than wire that has undergone the electro-galvanizing process.

    You can learn the detailed difference between the two through this article – Hot Dipped VS Electro Galvanized Wire.

    Galvanized Steel Wire Applications

    Due to its excellent performance, galvanized wire is widely used in various fields such as construction, handicrafts, highway guardrails, product packaging, and daily civilian use. In addition, it can also be made into wire mesh for use. Take the garden fences, animal fences, and meadow fences that we commonly see in our daily lives as examples, many of them are made of galvanized wire.

     

    Pros

    Anti-corrosion and anti-rust；
    Robust and durable；
    High flexibility；
    Long service life.

    Annealing Wire Introduction

    Annealed wire is a soft iron wire product made from low carbon steel by cold-drawing, heating, constant temperature, and heat preservation processes. It has a tensile strength of 300 ~ 500 MPa. In addition, due to its unique manufacturing process, annealed wire has flexibility that other metal wires do not have. It is very flexible and can be used for various purposes.

     

    Annealed Wire Applications

    Because of its flexibility and plasticity, black annealed wire is widely used in construction, handicrafts, woven wire ropes, filters, and other fields. Among them, 1.6mm wire is processed by machine to beat the spool, mainly in the special wire for haying machine. It is popular to use annealed wire for baling hay.

    Differences Between Galvanized and Annealed Wire

    Here are the differences between the two for your reference.

    Galvanized wire Annealed wire
    Definition Low carbon steel wire with galvanized surface Iron wire was heated to a certain temperature and slowly cooled
    Material High quality carbon steel High quality iron wire
    Process Drawing and forming → pickling and rust removal → high temperature annealing → hot dip galvanizing → cooling Pickling→Descaling→Drawing→High temperature annealing
    Characteristics Corrosion resistant, durable, relatively poor flexibility Soft and flexible, poor corrosion resistance, smooth surface
    Application Wire mesh fence, wire mesh, tying steel bars, fixed mesh panels, vineyard trellises, plant supports, fish cages, buoys Bundling rebar, tying materials, crafts and DIY projects, mesh and netting, grounding wire
    For the process of galvanized wire, you can refer to – What is the process of galvanized wire?

    Comparison of Corrosion Resistance

    Although annealed wire is equally resistant to rust when oiled, galvanized wire is still better than annealed wire in terms of corrosion and rust resistance. When black annealed wire is used or stored outdoors, it can easily rust, which can cause the wire to fail. Galvanized wire, on the other hand, is well adapted to the outdoor environment. It still performs well even under harsh conditions.

    Flexibility Comparison

    From the perspective of flexibility, galvanized wire is not as tough as black annealed wire. In the production process, the quality of the finished wire is ensured so that the wire reaches a certain level of strength and the appropriate level of flexibility. This also means that it will be more flexible to use.

    The following table summarizes the performance of the two.

    Specification Comparison Galvanized wire Annealed wire
    Coating Galvanized to prevent corrosion Uncoated; prone to rust
    Flexibility Harder and harder to bend Soft, easy to bend
    Durability Highly durable and long-lasting Less durable in wet environments
    Surface Finish Rougher due to galvanizing Smooth and soft
    Cost More expensive due to galvanizing Cheaper
    Applications Outdoor, fencing, construction Bookbinding, crafts, electrical

    Barbed wire is a security fence with excellent safety features. It is tough in itself, simple and easy to install, and does not require frequent maintenance. Therefore, it is often used for community fences, highway fences, government agencies, borderlines, and other places where high security performance is required. Since barbed wire is so popular, do you know how it is made? Next, Wanzhi Steel will tell you the answer.

    Manufacturing Process

    There are many processes to go through before you get the finished barbed wire. Read on to learn more.

     

    1. Manufacture of Steel Ingots

    How are steel ingots made? First, iron ore, coke, and limestone are heated in a blast furnace. At this point, the coke produces heat and carbon monoxide. The carbon monoxide reacts with the iron oxides in the ore, releasing the iron. The limestone, in turn, reacts with the impurities in the iron ore. Eventually, pig iron is forged.

    It is important to notice that if you want to convert pig iron into steel, you must remove impurities and most of the carbon. This is because if the carbon content of iron is too high, it will become brittle. However, if the carbon content is too low, the iron will be much weaker than steel.

     

    2. Making the Billets

    Before making the barbed wire, there is one more step that needs to be performed, and that is making the billets. First, the ingot is heated to about 1200°C. Then, it is placed between slotted rolls and rolled back and forth until it reaches the proper size. The billet is then cut to the desired length using shear and allowed to cool. Next, the billet is heated again and rolled again. This is done until it becomes a round bar. This wire is then coiled into a coil and is ready for the next steps.

    Before the process of manufacturing barbed wire, there are still the following preparations to be made.

    1) Removal of Iron Oxide

    The iron oxide formed during the healing process of the steel must be removed. Otherwise, the wire can easily rust. This can be done by pickling. In addition to this, it can also be removed by spraying it off with fast-moving sand, aluminum oxide, or cast-iron projectiles.

    2) Drawing of the Wire

    The wire is drawn through a die until the desired diameter is determined. Barbed wire, typically has a diameter of 2.5 mm. This usually requires about six or seven dies to achieve this size.

    3) Annealing

    To make the wire flexible, it needs to be annealed. How is annealing done? It is done by heating in a molten salt bath, a molten lead bath, or a furnace containing nitrogen.

     

    3. Barbed Wire Production

    Now, it comes to the part of barbed wire making. After the previous series of processes, the whole process of making the next will be much easier.

    1. First, the wire needs to be galvanized. Galvanization will provide a protective layer. The zinc layer will make it less prone to rust and corrosion. Keep in mind, however, that the wire must be completely clean and dry to be properly galvanized. Otherwise, an uneven zinc coating will occur.

    2. Next, the galvanized wire is fed into the machine. In the process, it can be twisted and woven into single and double strands. It will then be wound on a shaft and cut to the proper length.

    3. Finally, the barbed wire is made. After quality inspection, it will be packed and shipped to customers.
