Hexagonal Wire Mesh Overview

Hexagonal wire mesh, commonly referred to as chicken wire, gabion mesh, or hexagonal netting, is made from materials such as low carbon steel, stainless steel, zinc-aluminum alloy (often known as galfan), and iron. This product undergoes various surface treatments including galvanization and PVC coating to enhance its durability.

Product Insight

Introduction to Hexagonal Wire Mesh:

The hexagonal wire mesh features uniformly sized hexagonal openings. Primarily constructed from low carbon steel, the mesh is available in two main variants based on surface finishing: galvanized and PVC coated. The diameter for galvanized varieties ranges from 0.3 mm to 2.0 mm, while the PVC coated options span from 0.8 mm to 2.6 mm. This versatile mesh exhibits remarkable flexibility and resistance to corrosion, making it an ideal choice for applications such as slope protection. It can be classified into two categories depending on the usage: chicken wire mesh for smaller openings and slope protection mesh (gabion mesh). Our hexagonal mesh is highly utilized across regions including South America, particularly Argentina.

Specifications of Hexagonal Wire Mesh:

1. Material: Available in galvanized wire, stainless steel wire, or PVC coated wire.
2. Weaving Technique: Both forward twist and reverse twist methods are employed.
3. Surface Treatment: Options include pre-weaving galvanization, hot-dip galvanizing, or electro-galvanizing with PVC coating.
4. Diameter of Galvanized Hexagonal Wire: Ranges from 0.3 mm to 2.0 mm.
5. Diameter of PVC Coated Hexagonal Wire: Ranges from 0.8 mm to 2.6 mm.
6. Hole Sizes (inches): Available in sizes: 5/8", 3/4", 1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2", and 2".
7. Wire Gauges: Options include 18 G, 19 G, 20 G, 21 G, 22 G, 23 G, 24 G, 25 G, and 26 G.
8. Width Options: Various widths available upon special request.
9. Mesh Utilization Types: Includes chicken wire and slope protection wire.

Benefits of Using Hexagonal Wire Mesh:

Hexagonal wire mesh offers excellent insulation, fire resistance, and impressive durability. It is resistant to corrosion, rust, and oxidation, providing longevity in harsh environments.

Compared to traditional galvanized options, the galfan-coated variants exhibit superior corrosion resistance.

With a stable structure and a flat surface, hexagonal mesh boasts consistent mesh sizes and high tensile strength.

The uniformity in mesh size ensures effective airflow and supports poultry feeding.

This mesh also facilitates vegetation regrowth within gabion installations or rockfall mesh applications.

Thanks to its flexible nature, the mesh retains integrity even when broken.

Electro-galvanized styles are often more cost-effective with a brighter appearance than hot-dip galvanized variants.

When galvanization occurs prior to weaving, it leads to enhanced rust and corrosion resistance compared to post-weaving treatments.

Moreover, combining galvanized and PVC coated options results in longer service life and reduced overall costs.

Applications of Hexagonal Wire Mesh:

This versatile hexagonal wire mesh finds various uses in regions like South America, namely Argentina, such as:

  • Raising a variety of poultry or small animals, including chickens, rabbits, ducks, geese, and fish, available in fence or cage styles.
  • Protecting vegetable patches, flowers, or small plants from poultry and other small animals.
  • Constructing fruit cages, offering defenses against rats, birds, cats, dogs, squirrels, and foxes.
  • Utilizing for interior decorations, window screens, door screens, and children’s playground fences.
  • Creating art, crafts, or sculptural displays.
  • Acting as sieves, filters, and molds.
  • Reinforcing structures such as roofs, walls, ceilings, and floors with plaster or cement.
  • Providing protection for machinery and equipment, and serving as highway fencing, tennis court fencing, and road green belt fencing.
  • Preventing rockslides and debris from hitting roadways and rail tracks.
  • Used in gabion structures to effectively manage water flow and flooding, also as retaining walls and channel liners.
  • 16 gauge galvanized wire, 1” mesh hexagonal mesh, is typically used for paddle and platform tennis meshes.

Packaging Details for Hexagonal Wire Mesh:

  • (1) Shrink film with a label.
  • (2) Waterproof paper with shrink film and label.
  • (3) Waterproof paper, shrink film, and label, then packed in cardboard cartons.

PVC Coated Hexagonal Wire Mesh for Fencing and Gabion Use

Long-Lasting PVC Coated Hexagonal Wire Mesh


The manufacturing process of hexagonal wire mesh involves coating wires with PVC before weaving into various specifications. The wire's raw materials can include low carbon steel, stainless steel, or galvanized steel. This PVC application grants resistance to corrosion, rust, and oxidation, resulting in a durable and cost-effective mesh suited for chicken wire, rabbit fencing, and more. It safely contains ducks, geese, and other poultry or animals, and can serve as fencing for gardens or playgrounds. Thick wire variations can be utilized as gabion baskets or sacks for controlling water flow during floods. The standard color for PVC coated mesh is green.
