PVC Coated Gabion Steel Mesh Box, 11 Gauge
The PVC Coated Gabion Steel Mesh Box provides a durable containment solution for civil engineering, retaining wall, and heavy-duty landscaping projects. The 11-gauge wire mesh combines a galvanized steel core with a PVC coating for added protection against moisture, soil conditions, and mechanical wear. In addition, the double-twist hexagonal mesh provides flexibility while maintaining the shape of the gabion during filling and settlement.
Built for the Job
Contractors use this gabion mesh for projects that require strong containment and flexible structural performance. The double-twist hexagonal weave helps maintain mesh continuity if localized wire damage occurs during rock filling or site settlement. As a result, the baskets can suit retaining walls, slope stabilization, drainage structures, and erosion-control works.
Common applications include:
- Mass-gravity retaining walls for soil retention.
- Riverbank protection and bridge abutment reinforcement.
- Culvert headwalls and drainage structures.
- Slope stabilization and erosion-control projects.
- Coastal and other areas exposed to demanding environmental conditions.
PVC Coated Gabion Steel Mesh Box Product Highlights
Dual-Layer Protection
The galvanized steel core provides the primary protection against corrosion. Furthermore, the UV-stabilized PVC coating adds another protective layer around the wire. This combination makes the mesh suitable for outdoor and ground-contact applications.
Structural Reinforcement
- 11-gauge wire provides a strong and rigid mesh structure.
- Double-twist hexagonal weaving helps maintain mesh continuity.
- Thicker selvedge wires reinforce the edges and help maintain basket shape during filling.

On-Site & Workshop Notes
- First, prepare a level and properly compacted foundation before placing the first course of gabion baskets.
- Next, use suitable binding wire to connect the basket edges and maintain structural continuity.
- Also, place the rock fill progressively and use internal stiffeners where required to help maintain the basket shape.
- Finally, select clean, hard rock that suits the project requirements and allows proper drainage through the gabion structure.
