Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer with nearly a decade of experience, Anping Wanglai Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd. specializes in producing high-quality, versatile hexagonal wire mesh designed for durability and functionality. Our mesh is engineered to provide a reliable and cost-effective solution for agricultural and construction applications, particularly in rabbit husbandry and gabion structures. With a firm commitment to quality control, evidenced by our ISO9001 certification, and a significant annual export volume, we have established trust with partners across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. This product exemplifies our dedication to meeting diverse market needs with a flexible and robust wire mesh solution.
Our hexagonal wire mesh, often referred to as chicken wire or gabion mesh, is a fundamental material known for its unique combination of strength, flexibility, and breathability. Its distinctive six-sided weave pattern distributes stress evenly, preventing unraveling even when cut, making it exceptionally user-friendly for on-site fabrication.
Key Product Features & Technical Advantages:
Superior Material & Corrosion Resistance: Manufactured from high-tensile steel wire, available with various protective coatings. Electro-galvanized coating offers basic rust prevention for dry environments, while hot-dip galvanized provides a thicker, more durable zinc layer for extended outdoor life. For ultimate corrosion resistance and aesthetic appeal, PVC coated options are available, where the steel core is sheathed in a layer of PVC (polyvinyl chloride).
Optimal Design for Animal Enclosures: The hexagonal opening is ideal for rabbit cages, poultry runs, and other small animal pens. It provides excellent ventilation and visibility while preventing animals from escaping. The smooth edges (especially in PVC coated versions) help protect animals from injury.
Essential for Gabion Technology: This mesh is the primary containment material for gabion boxes and mattresses used in civil engineering. Its flexibility allows it to be formed into baskets, which are then filled with stones to create retaining walls, erosion control structures, channel linings, and landscape features. The mesh's strength holds the stone fill in place while allowing water to drain freely.
Exceptional Flexibility and Ease of Use: Unlike rigid welded meshes, hexagonal mesh can be easily rolled, cut, and shaped without specialized tools. This drastically reduces installation time and labor costs for both farmers and construction crews.
Customizable Configurations: We understand that project requirements vary. Therefore, we offer a range of specifications that can be tailored. Key customizable parameters include wire diameter, mesh opening size, roll width and length, and type of coating.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
Q: What is the main difference between galvanized and PVC coated hexagonal mesh?
A: Galvanized mesh has a zinc coating for rust resistance and is typically silver-gray. PVC coated mesh has a steel wire core covered by a plastic layer (usually green or black), offering superior corrosion resistance, protection against mechanical damage, and an aesthetic finish. PVC coating is recommended for highly corrosive environments or where appearance is important.Q: Which mesh size is most suitable for building rabbit cages?
A: For adult rabbits, a 1-inch (25mm) mesh is commonly used as it provides good ventilation and prevents escape. For smaller breeds or young kits, a 3/4-inch or 1/2-inch mesh is advisable to ensure they cannot squeeze through. The wire diameter should be at least 1.0mm for durability.Q: Can this mesh be used for other animals besides rabbits?
A: Absolutely. It is widely used for poultry (chickens, quails), as garden fencing to protect plants from pests, for aviaries, and as a base for plastering in construction. Its primary limitation is containing large or strong animals.Q: How do you determine the right specification for a gabion project?
A: Gabion specifications depend on the structural load and stone size. Generally, for standard retaining walls, a mesh opening slightly smaller than the stone size is used (e.g., 3" or 4" stone with 2" mesh). The wire diameter is critical; 2.0mm to 2.7mm wire with a heavy galvanized coating is standard for structural gabions. Engineering guidelines or project specifications should always be consulted.Q: What is the lead time for production and shipment?
A: For standard specifications, we typically maintain stock for quick dispatch. Production lead time for customized orders is approximately 15-25 days after confirmation. Shipment is primarily arranged from Tianjin port, with logistics tailored to your destination.Q: Do you provide samples for quality evaluation?
A: Yes, we are pleased to provide small samples of our hexagonal wire mesh free of charge. However, freight charges may apply. This allows you to verify the material quality, coating, and flexibility firsthand before placing a bulk order.Q: Is customization of roll width and length possible?
A> Yes, customization is a key service. While we offer standard roll dimensions, we can produce rolls in specific widths (up to certain machinery limits) and lengths to minimize waste on your job site and optimize shipping volume. Please inquire with your specific requirements.
