Description
High-Performance Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh
Our factory specializes in manufacturing high-strength Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh, a critical material for civil engineering, soil stabilization, and rockfall protection. This specialized Double-Twisted Wire Mesh features a non-unraveling structure that maintains its integrity even if individual wires break. We utilize advanced automated weaving technology to ensure consistent mesh opening sizes and superior mechanical properties.
Key Features & Technical Advantages
- Non-Unraveling Structure: The “double-twist” design prevents the mesh from unzipping under stress. This mechanical advantage makes our Hexagonal Wire Mesh far more reliable than traditional woven or welded mesh for high-load applications.
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: We offer various coating options, including heavy galvanized, Galfan (Zn-5%Al-MM), and eco-friendly PVC coatings. These treatments ensure the Double-Twisted Wire Mesh withstands harsh environments, including coastal and acidic soil conditions.
- Engineering Compliance: Our production lines strictly adhere to ASTM A975 and EN 10223-3 international standards, guaranteeing the tensile strength and durability required for government infrastructure projects.
- Factory Direct Customization: As a dedicated Hexagonal Wire Mesh manufacturer, we provide custom wire diameters (2.2mm to 4.0mm) and mesh sizes (6x8cm, 8x10cm, 10x12cm) to fit your specific project needs.
Specifications Of Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh
The specifications for Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh define the structural integrity and durability of gabions and rockfall protection systems. Our factory manufactures this mesh in strict accordance with ASTM A975 and EN 10223-3 international standards.

Advanced Coating Options
As a professional Hexagonal Wire Mesh manufacturer, we offer three primary coating levels to match different environmental conditions:
- Heavy Galvanized: High-purity zinc coating for standard land-based soil stabilization.
- Galfan (Zn-5%Al-MM): A zinc-aluminum alloy that provides 2–3 times the corrosion resistance of traditional galvanization.
- PVC Coated: An organic polymer coating over galvanized or Galfan wire, essential for coastal (high-salinity) and polluted environments.
Physical Properties for Engineering
- Non-unraveling Design: The double-twist mechanical structure ensures that if a single wire breaks, the mesh will not unzip, maintaining the overall strength of the Gabion Wall.
- Flexibility: The hexagonal shape allows the Double-Twisted Wire Mesh to deform slightly under ground movement without losing structural integrity, unlike rigid welded mesh.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Why is the “double-twist” design important for hexagonal wire mesh?
The double-twist design provides critical structural integrity. Unlike single-twisted mesh, Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh does not unravel if a wire is cut or broken. This feature ensures that a Double-Twisted Wire Mesh structure, such as a gabion basket or rockfall net, continues to hold its load and prevent catastrophic failure. Our factory-engineered mesh distributes tension evenly across the entire surface, making it the preferred choice for permanent engineering installations.
2. What coating is best for Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh in coastal areas?
For coastal or high-salinity environments, we recommend a PVC coating over a Galfan (Zinc-Aluminum) base. While Galfan provides excellent sacrificial protection, the PVC layer adds a physical barrier against salt spray and chemical abrasion. Our factory uses high-grade UV-stabilized PVC that resists cracking and peeling, extending the service life of your Hexagonal Wire Mesh to over 50 years in aggressive conditions.
3. Can you customize the mesh size for specific rockfall protection projects?
Yes, as a direct manufacturer, we offer full customization for Double-Twisted Hexagonal Wire Mesh. We can adjust the wire gauge, mesh aperture (such as 8x10cm or 10x12cm), and roll dimensions to match the specific geological requirements of your site. Our engineering team provides technical support to help you select the optimal Double-Twisted Wire Mesh specifications that comply with local safety regulations and project load calculations.
4. Does your mesh meet ASTM A975 and EN 10223-3 standards?
Absolutely. We manufacture all our Hexagonal Wire Mesh products to meet or exceed ASTM A975 (for double-twisted mesh) and EN 10223-3 requirements. These standards dictate the minimum tensile strength of the wire, the coating weight, and the elongation properties. Buying from our factory ensures you receive a certified product that passes rigorous quality control inspections, making it suitable for high-spec international infrastructure contracts.
