What is Chain Link Fencing

Chain link fencing is a type of fencing made from Annealed Wire or GI wire. Steel wires are connected with each other to form a diamond like structure. Wires are bent in a zigzag pattern so that they can attach to each other. Chain Link Fencing is used not only to protect your house but also your property, garden, etc, and give an aesthetic look. In this blog, we will discuss the advantages and manufacturing process of Chain Link Fencing.

Advantages of Chain Link fence

Durability –

Chain Link Fences are made from GI wires or Annealed wires. The galvanized wires are coated with Zinc, therefore these are highly resistant to corrosion and are highly durable. MS Wire is heated in a furnace to form Annealed Wire. This heat treatment enhances the properties of Annealed Wire. Hence these link chain fences are highly durable.

Less Maintenance –

The wire used in link chain fencing needs very little maintenance. This is because of the coating on the surface of steel wire. Because of this coating, there is no need for paint or any other extra coating on the wire.

Security –

Chain Link fences are one of the top choices when it comes to security. In link chain fencing, the wires are linked together to form a closed diamond shaped structure. It is very difficult to climb on these fences. Sometimes for extra security, people also use barbed wires on the top of link chain fences.

Affordable –

The Link Chain Fences are very affordable. They are made from Annealed Wire which is less expensive as compared to other wires. Annealed Wires are most commonly used wires in Chain Link fencing because of their affordability.

Easy Installation –

The installation process of Link Chain fencing is very easy compared to other types of fences. They are easy to install, and easy to adjust according to the height and length. These come in large rolls and are opened up at the place of installation. One end is connected with the pole or anything vertical structure and the wire mesh is spread on the whole boundary. Its height and length can be adjusted by cutting it.

Weather Resistance –

The wire used in the link chain fencing is coated with zinc or anti-rust coating. This makes the wire weather resistant. Due to its anti-rust properties, it has a long shelf life. Sometimes paint is also applied on the wire mesh. This gives an aesthetic appearance along with protection.

Versatility –

Link chain fences are versatile in nature. They are used for household purposes, commercial purposes, gardening, as well as industrial purposes.

Applications of Chain Link Fencing

Residential Purposes –

Link Chain fences are the most commonly used fences for residential purposes. They are used by the people to protect their property boundaries, pet enclosures, playgrounds, gardens, etc.

Commercial Purposes –

Link Chain Fences are widely used by industries to mark their boundaries, to protect their properties such as warehouses from wild animals, thieves, etc.  They are also used as a temporary boundary to mark their construction sites.

Agricultural Purposes –

Link Chain Fences are used in the agriculture industry for their livestock enclosures, protection of crops from wild animals, etc. Some people used link chain fences for their garden, and orchard protection. Link Chain Fences are the most widely used fences in agriculture as compared to wooden or any other fences. This is because of their durability and low maintenance cost.

Public Space Purposes –

Link Chain Fences are also used in public spaces to define some particular places such as car parking spaces, school campuses, playgrounds, hospital boundaries, park boundaries, jail boundaries, etc. These link chain fences are also used for decoration purposes in some public places for aesthetic appearances.

Manufacturing of Chain Link Fences

Raw Material –

The raw material used in the manufacturing of Chain Link Fences is Annealed Wire or GI Wire. Both of these wires are widely used because of their unique properties and high tensile strength. This wire is manufactured from Mild Steel Wire. MS Wire passed through a series of dies and rotating drums. After that, either heat treatment is given to the wires or wires are passed through the molten zinc solution.

Weaving Process –

The wire is then put into a weaving machine. The wire is bent and twisted to make the interconnected loops. This weaving machine forms a diamond-like structure by interweaving the wire into the mesh. This mesh is then rolled down into a large roller to make its transportation easy.
