Barbed wire is made with high quality low carbon steel wire with the automatic twist machine. It is commonly used in grass field edges, railway, high way, prison and the privacy fields for separation.

Barbed wire have three common twist types: single twist barbed wire, double twist barbed wire and traditional twist barbed wire.

Barbed wire includes line wire and barbed wire. In general, the wire diameter of line wire is larger than that of barbed wire. The barbed wire twist types depends on the twist type of line wire and barb wire. And the line wire sometime is single wire, sometimes is double wire.

Double barbed wire

Double barbed wire has two line wires twisted together with wire barbs attached. The wire is normally attached to wooden fence posts using a curved nail. This type is much safer than single barbed wire with the high tension.

Materials: hot-dipped galvanized wire, electro galvanized wire, PVC coated wire.

Specifications:

Barb spacing: 3" – 6".

Wire diameter: 1mm – 3.5mm.

Note: After galvanizing or plastic coating, the wire gauge is larger.

The length or weight per coil can be as customer need.

Applications: with high tensile, barbed wire is the perfect selection for cattle fencing and for the top wire above a traditional stock fence. It is also suitable for farm fencing, grassland farm. Barbed wire with chain link fence or welded fence can be found in use in railway, airport, high protection areas.

Barbed wire is relatively cheap and moderately effective. The barbs are painful if pushed against, thereby discouraging the horses from pushing against the fence.

Note: the barb is quite sharp and easily the barbs can cause serious injuries. When install the barbed wire fence, you should take the gloves for protection.
