FAQ

 

Q: What is a Low Carbon Steel Gabion Basket?

A: It is a stone-filled wire mesh container manufactured from low carbon steel wire, used for retaining, erosion control, and hydraulic protection applications.

Q: Why use low carbon steel wire for gabion baskets?

A: Low carbon steel provides good strength, flexibility, and weldability, making it suitable for large-scale civil engineering structures.

Q: What is double-twisted hexagonal mesh?

A: It is a mesh structure formed by twisting pairs of wires together, providing flexibility and preventing sudden structural failure.

Q: What coatings are available for gabion baskets?

A: Available coatings include hot-dip galvanized, heavy zinc, Galfan, and PVC coating systems.

Q: What standards are followed during production?

A: The products are manufactured according to BS EN 10223-3:2013 and BS EN 10218-2:2012 requirements.

Q: What is the tensile strength of the wire?

A: The standard tensile strength range is approximately 350–500 N/mm².

Q: Can gabion basket dimensions be customized?

A: Yes. Basket length, width, height, mesh opening, wire diameter, and coating options can be customized.

Q: Are diaphragms included in gabion baskets?

A: Yes. Larger gabion baskets include internal diaphragms to maintain structural stability after filling.

Q: What stone size is recommended for filling?

A: Stone size depends on mesh opening and project requirements. The filling material should be larger than the mesh opening.

Q: What information is needed for a quotation?

A: Please provide basket dimensions, mesh size, wire specification, coating requirements, quantity, and application conditions.
