China Woven Wire Cattle Fence Field Fencing Supplier

Woven wire cattle fence is formed by interlacing steel wires into a uniform mesh pattern, creating a barrier that distributes impact forces across multiple strands. This construction reduces the risk of wire breakage under livestock pressure compared to stranded or welded alternatives.

Technical Specifications

Typical wire diameters range from 2.0 mm to 4.0 mm, selected based on required load capacity and expected animal size. Mesh openings commonly measure 50 mm × 100 mm or 75 mm × 150 mm, providing adequate visibility while preventing hoof entrapment. Minimum tensile strength of the base steel is 550 MPa, with hot‑dip galvanized coating achieving at least 275 g/m² zinc mass or PVC coating thickness of 0.2 mm for corrosion protection.

Material Options

Base wire is typically produced from low‑carbon steel grades such as Q195 for economical applications or high‑tensile Q345 where greater load resistance is required. Hot‑dip galvanizing provides a metallurgical zinc‑iron alloy layer that resists rust in humid environments, while PVC coating adds a protective polymer barrier and allows color coding for visibility. Both coatings can be combined, with a zinc underlayer followed by a PVC overcoat, to extend service life in corrosive soils.

• Q195 low‑carbon steel – standard tensile, good formability
• Q345 high‑tensile steel – increased yield strength for heavy livestock
• Hot‑dip galvanized coating – zinc mass 200‑350 g/m²
• PVC coating – thickness 0.15‑0.30 mm, colors green, black, white
• Dual coating – galvanized base + PVC top layer

Applications

Cattle exert significant lateral pressure on fencing, especially during herd movement or when seeking water. The woven mesh distributes this force across many wires, reducing point loads that could cause individual wire fatigue or breakage. Additionally, the smooth interlocking edges minimize abrasion on animal hides, lowering injury risk compared to barbed or welded designs.

Quality Control

Each production lot undergoes tensile testing on representative wire samples to verify minimum strength specifications. Coating adhesion is assessed by bend‑test methods ensuring the zinc or PVC layer remains intact under flexing. Mesh dimensions are checked with calibrated gauges to maintain opening tolerances within ±2 mm, preventing gaps that could compromise containment.

Customization

Wire diameter can be adjusted in 0.1 mm increments to match specific load calculations. Mesh opening geometry may be altered to rectangular, square, or diamond patterns depending on visibility and hoof safety requirements. Roll length and width are tailored to site logistics, reducing the number of splices needed during installation.

Packaging and Shipping

Finished rolls are first wrapped in UV‑stabilized polyethylene film to protect against moisture and dirt during transit. Each wrapped roll is then placed on a wooden pallet and secured with polypropylene strapping to prevent shifting. Pallets are stacked no higher than two layers and labeled with product code, dimensions, and weight for easy handling at destination.
