Shamba 12.5 Gauge Chain Link Fence, 4ft x 18m, 65x65mm Mesh

Shamba 12.5 Gauge Chain Link

The Shamba 12.5 Gauge Fence serves as a high-tensile perimeter solution for commercial, agricultural, and residential boundaries requiring superior physical strength. This heavy-duty galvanized mesh provides a rigid barrier against unauthorized entry and livestock pressure. It is engineered for environments where standard light-gauge fencing fails to maintain structural integrity over time.

Built for the Job

Contractors and site supervisors select this specific 2.5mm wire thickness for permanent installations in high-traffic or high-impact zones. The 12.5-gauge specification offers a significant upgrade in tensile strength compared to common 14-gauge alternatives, ensuring the mesh does not sag or deform under localized pressure. This material is standard for securing construction sites, demarcating large farm plots, and creating durable enclosures for medium-to-large livestock. The 4-foot height provides a clear physical boundary while maintaining site visibility for security patrols and facility managers.

• Perimeter security for industrial yards and storage facilities.

• Agricultural fencing for paddock division and livestock containment.

• Residential boundary markers in coastal or high-corrosion areas.

Product Highlights

Corrosion Protection

The hot-dipped galvanized coating provides a thick zinc layer that protects the steel core from oxidation.

Heavy Gauge Wire

• 12.5 Gauge (approx. 2.5mm diameter) for high impact resistance
• Uniform 65mm x 65mm mesh apertures for consistent tensioning

Technical Specifications

What’s Included

• 1 x Roll of 12.5G Heavy Gauge Chain Link Fence (4ft x 18m)

On-Site & Workshop Notes

• Maintain a maximum post spacing of 3 meters to prevent mid-span sagging in the galvanized wire.

• Use 10-gauge straining wire at the top, middle, and bottom of the mesh to ensure long-term tension.

• Ensure all corner posts are reinforced with diagonal stays to counteract the pull of the tightened barrier.

• Avoid installing this material in direct contact with highly acidic soil or fertilizers to maximize the lifespan of the zinc coating.

• When joining two rolls, weave a single strand of matching gauge wire through the end links for a seamless connection.
