Hexagonal wire netting, also known as chicken wire, is crafted through a specific weaving process that yields its characteristic hexagonal pattern. Available in various dimensions, it caters to an array of applications ranging from poultry enclosures and garden fencing to stucco netting in construction and erosion control projects.
Material
- Galvanized Steel: Coated with zinc to prevent rust, ideal for outdoor use.
- PVC-Coated Steel: Steel wire covered with PVC for extra durability and available in different colors, suitable for decorative purposes.
- Stainless Steel: Highly resistant to corrosion and rust, perfect for harsh environments and offers a long lifespan.
Weaving
- Weaving Machine: The machine pulls wire from spools and uses rotating parts to bend the wire into hexagonal shapes.
- Twisting Method: Wires are twisted together at intervals to secure the hexagonal shapes and add strength to the netting.
- Reverse Twisting: In some cases, the twists alternate directions to make the netting more durable and prevent it from unraveling.

Classification
- Galvanized Hexagonal Wire Netting
Galvanized hexagonal wire netting is durable and resistant to corrosion, making it suitable for outdoor and industrial uses. Standard mesh sizes range from 13 mm (1/2 inch) to 100 mm (4 inches), and wire diameters vary from 0.4 mm to 2.0 mm. Rolls typically come in widths from 0.5 meters (20 inches) to 2 meters (79 inches) and can be as long as 50 meters (164 feet). Custom sizes are available to meet specific needs for projects such as agriculture and construction. - PVC-Coated Hexagonal Wire Netting
PVC-coated hexagonal wire netting combines durability with aesthetic appeal, available in various colors. Common mesh sizes are 13 mm, 25 mm, and 50 mm, with wire diameters ranging from 0.7 mm to 2.0 mm. Like galvanized netting, rolls are available up to 2 meters wide and 50 meters long. Customization options include size adjustments and color choices, making it ideal for decorative uses like garden fences and animal enclosures.
