Barbed wire is a type of steel fencing wire constructed with sharp edges or points arranged at intervals along the strands. It is used to construct fences and is placed on top of walls surrounding secured property. The design involves a coil with sharp barbs that can cause discomfort or injury to anyone trying to pass through or over it, acting as a deterrent.

Material
- Galvanized Steel: Steel coated with zinc for rust prevention, commonly used outdoors.
- Stainless Steel: Offers better rust resistance and durability, suitable for harsh environments.
- PVC-Coated Steel: Steel with a protective PVC layer for extra weather resistance and color options.
Wire Gauge
12.5 Gauge: This is the most common thickness, providing a good balance of strength and flexibility. It’s widely used in agricultural fencing and security applications.
14 Gauge: Slightly thinner than 12.5 gauge, 14 gauge wire offers easier handling and installation while still maintaining sufficient strength for many fencing needs.
12 Gauge: Thicker and stronger, 12 gauge wire is used when greater durability and resistance to breakage are required.
12 Gauge: Offers a thickness of about 2.77 mm.
12.5 Gauge: Typically measures approximately 2.64 mm.
13 Gauge: Generally about 2.34 mm thick.
14 Gauge: Usually around 2.03 mm.
Barb Spacing
- 3 Inches (7.62 cm): Close spacing for high-security areas.
- 4 Inches (10.16 cm): Standard spacing, balancing security and material use.
- 5 Inches (12.70 cm): Less frequent barbs, reducing material costs.
- 6 Inches (15.24 cm): Widest spacing, for lower security needs.
Barb Style
- Single Barb: Consists of one point at each barb position.
- Double Barb: Features two points at each barb position for increased security.
Strand Configuration
- Single Strand: Consists of a single line of wire with barbs. It’s easier to handle and suitable for basic security needs.
- Double Strand: Consists of two twisted wires with barbs, offering greater strength and durability for higher security areas.
Coil Length
Standard Lengths: Commonly available in lengths of:
200 meters (656 feet)
250 meters (820 feet)
400 meters (1312 feet)
Custom Lengths: Available based on specific project requirements.
Coil Weight
Standard Coil Weights:
25 kg (55 lbs): Typical for handling and transportation ease.
50 kg (110 lbs): Used for larger projects to minimize the number of joins.
Applications
- Agricultural Uses
Livestock Fencing: Commonly used to keep cattle, sheep, and other livestock within designated areas and protect them from predators. - Boundary Fences
Property Lines: Effective for marking property boundaries and preventing unauthorized access in both residential and rural settings. - Commercial Applications
Security Fencing: Provides a cost-effective security solution for commercial properties to safeguard assets and control access.
Industrial Sites: Used around industrial areas to secure hazardous zones, storage yards, and factory perimeters, ensuring safety and security compliance.
