ASTM A975 standard Gabion Baskets with 80 x 100 mm Mesh for Erosion
Control Projects
The double twisted gabion basket is made by twisting continuous pairs of wires through three
one-half turns (commonly called double twisted) to form
hexagonal-shaped openings which are then interconnected to adjacent
wires to form hexagonal openings.
The wire used to manufacture double twisted gabion wire mesh is soft annealed, mild steel wire provided with heavy zinc coating
as per EN 10244/ASTM A 641 to prevent corrosion. In case of use in
aggressive environments, it is further extruded with 0.5mm thick
PVC Coating. The PVC coating is UV stabilized as per ASTM A 975.
Selvedge / Edge wire which is a thicker and heavier wire is used to
reinforce the edges and transverse diaphragm. It gives greater
rigidity and shape to the Gabion Basket.
The diaphragm assure minimum stone migration within the basket,
thus gives strength to the container to retain its original shape
and does not unravel or unzip in adverse conditions. Woven units
can also be easily amended on site and shaped to suit project
requirements.
