surface treatment: hot-dipped galvanized, Zinc-Al alloy(galfan) or PVC coated, etc.
Gabions are baskets manufactured from 8x10 double twisted hexagonal woven steel wire mesh, as per ASTM A975-97 Gabions are filled with stones at the project site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, channel linings, and weirs for erosion control projects. The steel wire used in the manufacture of the gabion is heavily Galfan (zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal [Zn-5 Al-MM] alloy) coated soft temper steel. A PVC coating is then applied to provide additional protection for use in polluted, contaminated or aggressive environments: in salt, fresh water, acid soil or wherever the risk of corrosion is present. The PVC coating has a nominal thickness of 0.02 in. (0.50 mm). The gabion is divided into cells by diaphragms positioned at approximately 3 ft (0.9m) centers. To reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire having a greater diameter. Gabions shall be manufactured and shipped with all components mechanically connected at the production facility.


Features:
• Economic. Just fill the stone into the gabions and seal it.
• Simple installation. No special technology needed.
• Weather proof under natural destroy, corrosion resistant.
• No collapse even under big scope of deforming.
• Sludge in the stones is good for plant growing. Mixed to form a integrity with the natural environment.
• Good permeation can prevent the damage by hydrostatic.
• Less transport freight. It can be folded together for transport a
Gabion boxes applications:
• Control and guide of water or flood
• Flood bank or guiding bank
• Preventing of rock breaking
• Water and soil protection
• Bridge protection
• Strengthening structure of soil
• Protection engineering of seaside area.

Gabion mesh is the gabion which are woven by the hexagonal mesh,the diameter thickness depends on the mesh size.The diameter is between 2.0mm to 4.0mm if the material is zinc coated,while the diameter,will be 3.0mm too 4.5mm if the material is pvc coated wire,the selvage wire diameter.Usually is one gauge thicker than the body wire diameter.
