2. Welded wire fence or cattle panel
The price of welded wire mesh is higher than that of woven wire mesh, and its strength is higher accordingly. It is also a wire mesh choice for cattle fences, livestock fencing, hog wire fences, and horse fences. It can be used as gates for goats, pasture gates, and cattle gates.
