Chicken wire mesh is easy to handle and install thanks to its small, uniform hexagonal holes. The chicken wire mesh offers good ventilation for the animals and allows for visibility, making it ideal for a variety of farming and gardening applications. The galvanization process or PVC coated manufacturing process ensures rust resistance, prolonging the life of the chicken wire mesh and reducing maintenance requirements. Chicken wire mesh is a popular choice for creating secure and healthy environments for poultry and other small animals thanks to its cost-effectiveness and durability.
Specification
Galvanised chicken wire mesh is a strong and durable wire mesh material designed for use in poultry enclosures and other agricultural applications. Made from low-carbon steel wire that is tightly woven into a hexagonal pattern, the galvanized chicken wire mesh is strong but flexible. The galvanization process involves coating the low carbon steel wire with a layer of zinc, which makes the galvanized chicken wire mesh resistant to corrosion, so the galvanized chicken wire mesh can be used outside, even in harsh weather.
The popular chicken wire has small, even openings that keep poultry in and predators out.
The widely used mesh size of the galvanized chicken wire is: 1/8 inch chicken wire,1/4 inch chicken wire,chicken wire 1/2 inch hex.

Corrosion Resistance: The galvanization process creates a protective zinc coating that prevents rust and corrosion, ensuring longevity even when exposed to the elements.
Durability: Made from low carbon steel wire, galvanized chicken wire is strong and can withstand the wear and tear of regular use in agricultural settings.
Versatility: Suitable for a variety of purposes beyond poultry enclosures, including garden protection, fencing, and general animal control.
Small Apertures: The hexagonal mesh pattern with small holes is effective in keeping poultry secure and preventing the entry of predators.
Easy Installation: The lightweight and flexible nature of the galvanized chicken wire mesh allows for easy installation on wires, posts, or frames.
The galvanized chicken wire mesh is often rolled into coils for subsequent packaging and transportation. The common height of the roll (that is, the width of the chicken netting) including: 36 inch chicken wire,48 inch chicken wire and 60 inch chicken wire. And the common length of the roll is 50 feet,100ft or 150ft. The common packing method is: rolls of1/8 inch chicken wire 36*1/8*50ft(or 1/4 inch mesh chicken wire 48*1/4*50 100ft) are bundled together and transported by pallet.
