Heavy Gauge 16-Gauge Galvanized Chain Link Fence, 8ft x 18m

16-Gauge Galvanized Fencing

The Heavy Gauge Galvanized Fence provides a high-security perimeter solution for industrial, commercial, and large-scale residential sites. This 16-gauge wire mesh features a hot-dipped zinc coating to resist atmospheric corrosion. The 8ft height makes it suitable for high-clearance security requirements where standard fencing falls short.

Built for the Job

Contractors use this heavy-duty mesh for securing construction sites, warehouse yards, and agricultural boundaries. The 1.6mm wire diameter offers a balance between flexibility for installation and the tensile strength required to withstand impact. The 18m roll length allows for efficient coverage of long perimeter runs with fewer joints between sections.

• Securing high-risk industrial perimeters and storage yards.

• Establishing boundary lines for schools and public facilities.

• Creating secure enclosures for livestock or large equipment.

Product Highlights

Triple Twisted Selvage

The top and bottom edges feature a triple-twist finish to prevent the mesh from unravelling under tension or during cutting.

Hot-Dipped Galvanization

• Uniform zinc coating protects against rust in high-humidity areas.
• Industrial-grade finish ensures a long service life in outdoor exposures.
• Resists abrasion during handling and installation on rocky terrain.

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x 18m Roll of 16-Gauge Galvanized Wire Mesh (8ft High)

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Ensure corner posts are set in concrete to a minimum depth of 600mm to support the 8ft height tension.

• Use 12-gauge straining wires at the top, middle, and bottom to prevent the mesh from sagging over time.

• Overlap adjacent rolls by at least one diamond pattern and secure with galvanized tying wire for a seamless join.

• Wear heavy-duty leather gloves during handling to protect against sharp selvage edges.

• Store rolls upright on a dry surface to prevent bottom-edge damage before deployment.
