The lead wire gabion is a flexible, corrosion-resistant and highly permeable slope protection system designed to meet strict engineering performance requirements. Manufactured by an experienced China lead wire gabion factory and suppliers, it delivers strong resistance to erosion, earthquakes and water flow, making it ideal for water conservancy, soil conservation, highways, railways and marine engineering projects.
● Features
1. High durability & corrosion resistance - the lead wire gabion mesh structure offers long service life even under strong water flow and erosion.
2. Flexible double twist design - the double twist lead wire gabion mesh maintains stability under deformation, outperforming rigid or semi-rigid systems.
3. Excellent permeability - allows natural water drainage, reducing hydraulic pressure behind retaining structures.
4. Earthquake-resistant structure - the flexible mesh absorbs vibration and ground movement in seismic zones.
5. Cost-effective solution - lower installation and maintenance costs compared with traditional concrete structures.
6. Strong environmental adaptability - suitable for rivers, lakes, coastal zones and mountainous terrain.
Reliable quality control - supplied by a professional lead wire gabion mesh manufacturer with strict inspection standards.
● Specifications
| mesh | 60x80mm | 80x100mm | 100x120mm | 120*150mm | Can be customized according to specific needs |
| Wire diameter | Mesh: 2.0mm-4.0mm Edge wire: generally 0.5-1.0mm larger than mesh wire Binding wire: generally smaller than mesh wire, mostly 2.0mm-2.2mm | ||||
| Material | Electro-galvanizing: The maximum amount of zinc applied is 10g/m2, and the anti-corrosion property is poor. Hot-dip galvanizing: The maximum amount of zinc applied can reach 300g/m2, which has strong anti-corrosion properties Galfan (zinc-aluminum alloy): This type is divided into two materials, zinc-5% aluminum-mixed rare earth alloy steel wire, and zinc-10% aluminum mixed rare earth alloy steel wire, which has strong anti-corrosion properties. Plastic coating: PVC, PE plastic coating. Generally, PVC has a longer service life than PE. | ||||

● Preparation before installation
1. Read the construction drawings carefully to understand the specifications, dimensions and installation location of the gabion net.
2. Assess the geographical conditions and environmental factors of the construction site, and determine the construction difficulty and required resources.
3. Prepare the required construction equipment, tools and materials to ensure sufficient quantity and qualified quality.
4. Organize construction personnel to conduct technical briefings and safety training, and clarify construction tasks and safety responsibilities.
● Gabion installation steps
1. According to the design drawings, determine the installation location and boundaries of the gabion net.
2. Use measuring tools for positioning to ensure the installation position of the gabion net is accurate.
3. Expand the gabion net and fix it in the predetermined position to ensure that the mesh pieces are flat and the connection is firm.
4. Fill the interior of the gabion net with appropriate stones or soil, layer by layer, until the design height is reached.
5. Compact the filled gabion net to ensure overall stability.
● Construction precautions
1. During the installation process, ensure that the mesh pieces of the gabion mesh are firmly connected to avoid loosening or falling off.
2. When filling stones or soil, ensure that the filling is even and dense to avoid cavities or looseness.
3. Construction workers should wear safety protective equipment and abide by safe operating procedures to ensure construction safety.
● Regular inspection and maintenance
1. Check the gabion net regularly to observe its overall stability and integrity.
2. If the gabion net is found to be damaged, displaced or deformed, it should be repaired or replaced in time.
3. Check the status of the filling inside the gabion net. If loose stones or soil loss are found, they should be replenished and reinforced in time.
● Drainage and cleaning management
1. Make sure there is a good drainage system around the gabion net to avoid water damage to the gabion net.
2. Regularly clean the debris and dirt on the surface of the gabion net to keep it clean and beautiful.
● Avoid contact with harmful substances
1. The gabion net should avoid contact with chemical corrosive substances to avoid damage to it.
2. During construction and maintenance, environmentally friendly materials should be used and harmful chemicals should be avoided.
● Timely repair and replacement
