Gabion Box Creek Bank Repair Wire Mesh Gabion Box Retaining Wall Baskets South Africa
The Galfan stone cage network, also known as the zinc-aluminum stone cage net, is woven with a new type of anti-corrosion material. Galfan stone cage network has high corrosion resistance, and its corrosion resistance is about 2-3 times that of ordinary stone cage net.
Whether it is outdoors, in a humid environment, or in a harsh environment such as the ocean climate, the Galfan's corrosion resistance is superior to ordinary galvanizing and electroplating.
The Galfan stone cage network is extremely ductile and deformable, even beyond the steel base it protects. It can withstand the test of winding and bending under strong deformation process conditions without worrying about cracking and falling off of the zinc layer.
Standard wire diameter is 2.7mm, while 2.0mm and 2.4mm are available for certain mesh size combinations. Minimum thickness of PVC coating for woven gabions is 0.5mm.

Gabion box can be supplied in various length, width and height. In order to strengthen the box, all the edge of the structure shall be selvedged with bigger diameter wire.
Features of the Gabion:
The pliability and flexibility of the woven mesh makes it extremely flexible and tough and the ideal solution for civil engineering applications typically on poor or uneven ground, where some deformation of the basket is required or expected. The resulting wall also tends to look more natural, giving it a dry stone wall effect. As a result it particularly suits retaining wall applications for river training and coastal defence applications.
Woven Mesh Gabion retaining walls can be designed using the traditional gravity retaining wall concept, or alternatively, they can also be used as the facing element for reinforced earth retaining structures.
