what is a gabion basket

The Gabion basket is generally made of the hexagonal wire mesh, and the hexagonal is weaved with the low carbon steel wire or PVC coated wire of high corrosion resistance,high strength, ductility by the machine. Gabion Basket are wire mesh boxes, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retain/contain soil particles. Gabion and geotextile are normally used together to reduce water velocities and to re-capture river bed sediment in streams. 

Features

1, Easy construction , The workers just need to fill the stone into  the ecological Gabion Box and seal the gabion box, No need special technology, also no need water and electricity.  

2.Low cost, high efficiency ,Economy

3.Good decorative and good protective effect.  The Ecological gabion box adopt the technology of the combination of engineering measures and plant measures,which can effectively prevent soil erosion and make the landscape  more natural, more rich. 

4. Long service life . The ecological gabion basket is durable, the service life is generally for decades and no need to repair.Because of this point,the gabion basket is popular in the range of embankment project. The flood control dam protection project, revetment project and so on always adopt this technology.

5.Strength and flexibility. 

6.Strong anti-corrosion,heavy galvanized wire or Galfan wire,or glued PVC coated wire,PE coated wire to make the Gabion Basket can more improve capacity of anti-corrosion,can adapted to sea environment.

Specification 

Note: Special size and specification can be customized. 

Technology

The wire used to manufacture double twisted gabion wire mesh is soft annealed, mild steel wire provided with heavy zinc coating as per EN 10244/ASTM A 641 to prevent corrosion. In case of use in aggressive environments, it is further extruded with 0.5mm thick PVC Coating

Applications and Installation:

Gabion Basket are wire mesh boxes, containers or baskets filled with rock to prevent soil erosion and to retain/contain soil particles. Gabion and geotextile are normally used together to reduce water velocities and to re-capture river bed sediment in streams.

The double twisted hexagonal mesh means that the wire will not unravel when cut which allows the gabion to be easily cut and shaped to suit project requirements. So the Gabion baskets always are used for slope support, foundation pit support, mountain rock surface hanging net shotcrete, slope plant, railway highway isolation guard net, it can also be made into reno matress,reno mat, box,basket, net pad, used for rivers, seawall anti-erosion protection, reservoir and river closure with cage etc.

The gabion box has Good decorative , so it also can used on decorative wall .

As a gabion supplier in China, hexagonal wire mesh is also one of our main products. We can provide gabion nets in different specifications and sizes to meet your different needs.
