Chicken wire mesh, also known as hex netting, is a strong low carbon steel hexagonal shape fencing used in poultry farming and other agricultural applications. Constructed from galvanized or PVC-coated low carbon steel wire, this hexagonal wire mesh features a hexagonal pattern that provides even and strong structural support.The advantages of the hexagonal wire mesh include high tensile strength, resistance to corrosion, and an optimal balance between cost and performance.
Additionally, the hexagonal wire mesh is available in various sizes and gauges, making it useful for different types of poultry and farming requirements.
Specification
Large hole PVC chicken wire mesh is a type of hexagonal wire mesh fencing that features larger openings between the woven iron wires, typically used in agricultural and gardening applications. The chicken wire mesh is made from high-quality low carbon steel wire and coated with a layer of PVC (polyvinyl chloride) to enhance durability and weather resistance. The large holes allow for increased air circulation and sunlight penetration, making the PVC chicken wire mesh ideal for use in poultry enclosures, garden protection, and other similar purposes. The PVC coating not only provides an additional layer of protection against rust and corrosion but also offers UV resistance and comes in various colors to suit different aesthetic preferences. Large hole PVC chicken wire mesh is easy to install and maintain, providing a practical and visually appealing solution for animal husbandry and plant support needs.
The hole size means the mesh size which refers to the distance across the widest part of the hexagonal opening. The popular hole size is 1 inch(25mm).The 1 inch mesh size chiken wire mesh provides a good balance between protection and ventilation.Here is the other opening sizes of the chicken wire mesh.
Hole size | Wire diameter | |
In inch | In mm | In mm |
3/8'' | 9.52mm | 0.42mm-0.50mm |
1/2'' | 12.7mm | 0.38mm-0.80mm |
5/8'' | 16mm | 0.38mm-1.0mm |
3/4'' | 19mm | 0.38mm-1.2mm |
1'' | 25.4mm | 0.38mm-1.2mm |
5/4'' | 31mm | 0.55mm-1.2mm |
3/2'' | 38.1mm | 0.55mm-1.4mm |
2'' | 50.8mm | 0.55mm-1.5mm |
3'' | 76.2mm | 0.65mm-1.5mm |
4'' | 101.6mm | 1.2mm-2.0mm |
Rust and Corrosion Resistance: The PVC coating provides a protective layer that shields the iron wire from direct contact with moisture and other corrosive elements, significantly extending the chicken wire mesh's lifespan.
UV Resistance: The PVC material can resist damage from ultraviolet rays, preventing the chicken wire mesh from degrading under prolonged exposure to sunlight.
Enhanced Durability: Compared to un-coated iron chicken wire mesh, PVC chicken wire mesh is more durable and less likely to break or bend under stress.
Color Options: PVC chicken wire mesh comes in a variety of colors, allowing users to choose chicken wire mesh that suits their aesthetic preferences or blends into the surroundings.
Animal Safety: The smooth PVC surface reduces the risk of injury to animals that may come into contact with the fencing.
