May. 13, 2024

Colorful PVC coated gabions

Compared with other materials of gabions, the features of PVC coated gabion are colorful and ecological. The PVC coated gabion can be made into green, gray, and other colors for common applications. It can also be made into orange, black, and other various colors for decorative applications.

Solid PVC coated gabions

PVC coated gabion has a rigid and solid structure, which can be double twisted and triple twisted. Double twisted structure is the most widely used structure, which is solid enough for common protective applications. In some harsh conditions projects, such as flood control, coastal protection, channeling lining, and other projects, the double twisted structure cannot satisfy the strength requirements, so you can choose the triple twisted PVC coated gabion. Triple twisted structure makes the gabion a higher strength and stability structure. The high strength can resist the high impact from flood, sea water, and other external forces.

Customized PVC coated gabion

If you want to use the PVC coated gabion in retaining walls, channel linings, and slope protection applications, you may need higher gabions. You can choose the PVC coated gabion box, which has a maximum 1.5-meter height. If you need higher, just pile the 1-meter height gabions up for protection.
If you need more flexible PVC coated gabions to be used in coastal protection, river bank protection, and other projects, which need lower gabions, you can choose the PVC coated gabion mattress. The maximum height of the gabion mattress is 0.5 meters and the minimum height can be 0.17 m. It is more flexible and easy to operate during use.

Modular Galvanized & PVC Coated Gabions System with technical quality standards

Standard quality of Zinc plus PVC coated gabions, exported for the Georgian project as a reference example.

GALVANIZED and PVC COATED GABIONS for Georgian Project

Gabions baskets made of double twisted steel woven wire mesh, as per ASTM A975-97. Gabions are filled with stones at the project site to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, channel linings, and weirs for erosion control projects. The steel wire used in the manufacture of the gabion is heavily zinc-coated soft temper steel. A PVC coating is then applied to provide added protection for use in polluted environments where soils or water are acidic: in salt or fresh water, or wherever the risk of corrosion is present. The PVC coating's nominal thickness is 0.50 mm.

The gabion is divided into cells by means of diaphragms positioned at approximately 1m centers. In order to reinforce the structure, all mesh panel edges are selvedged with a wire of greater diameter (Table 3). The dimensions and sizes of PVC coated gabions are shown in Table 1. The material is supplied from an ISO 9001 certified factory.

Wire
Tests on wire for the manufacture of gabions are made prior to the manufacturing of gabion mesh.

Tensile strength of the wire used for the manufacture of gabions ranges between 350-500 MPa according to EN 10223-3. Wire tolerances meeting EN10223-3.
Elongation not less than 10%, meeting with EN10223-3.
Zinc coatings meet EN10244-2 Class A.
Adhesion of the zinc coating to the wire shall meet ASTM A641-97 standard, zinc coating shall not flake or crack when rubbing it with the bare fingers, when the wire is wrapped six turns around a mandrel having four times the diameter of the wire.

P.V.C. (Polyvinyl Chloride) Coating
The technical characteristics and the resistance of the PVC to ageing meet the relevant standards. The main values for the PVC material are as follows:

Specific gravity: 1.30-1.35 kg/dm 3 in accordance with ASTM D792 Table 1;
Hardness: between 50 and 60 Shore D, according to ASTM D 2240 -91;
Tensile strength: not less than 20.6 MPa, according to ASTM D412-92;
Modulus of elasticity: not less than 18.6 MPa, in accordance with ASTM D412-92;
Abrasion resistance: the percentage of the weight loss shall be less than 12%, according to ASTM D1242-92;
Creeping corrosion: max. penetration of corrosion of the wire from a square cut end shall be 1 in. (25 mm) when the specimen has been immersed for 2,000 hours in a 5% solution HCl (hydrochloric acid 12 Be).
