2*1*0.5m Zinc-Al coating Galfan welded gabion
Welded Gabions are wire mesh containers welded with high quality steel mesh. They can be filled on site with hard durable stone materials to form mass gravity retaining structures. Owing to their inflexibility, welded gabions can not adapt to differential settlement or be used in water courses.
1) Technical Note of the Welded Gabion box:
Mesh Size: Mesh openings should be square of nominal dimension of 76.2mm on the grid.
Mesh Wire: Nominal wire diameter should be 3.0mm to 6mm(BS 1052).
Standard Sizes: 2mx1mx1m, 2mx 1mx0.5m, 1mx1mx1m, 1mx1mx0.5m, 1.5m x1mx1m
Surface Treatment: 95% zinc 5% aluminum coating for corrosion resistance
Assembly: Assembled with stainless steel clips connecting side panels and diaphragms to the base panel
Joining: welded gabion box should be provided with lacing wire for site assembly, which should be of minimum wire diameter 2.2mm for final joining

3) Feature and Advantages of Welded Gabion Box:
1.smooth and tidy, uniform mesh, joints firm, the firm has a strong, corrosion resistance, etc.
2. low-cost, easy to install, decorate the courtyard, ideal for green slope.
3. a strong resistance to withstand natural weather damage and impacts.
4. very good anti-stretch capability.
5. field installation quick and easy and simple and beautiful structure, saving time and labor, and high efficiency.
6. installation man-hours than the hexagonal gabion save 40%. Compared with hexagonal wire mesh, welded wire mesh can better maintain the "cage". With diaphragms and stiffeners installed, the gabion may be filled with standard loading equipment. After filling the gabion, a lid is placed on top and secured with spiral binders, lacing wire or "C" rings.
7. When the filler filled, welded wire mesh panel is not convex not concave, keep flat, hexagonal wire mesh is not the same as the drum up, so you can better.
4) Major Applications of Welded Gabions:
1. Retaining wall structures
2. Prevention of current scour and erosion control
3. Bridge protection
4. Hydraulic structures, dams and culverts
5. Embankment protection
5) Packing&shipping of the Welded Gabion box
Normally packaged in bundles with pallets
