• Galvanized or Zinc coated steel offer superior corrosion resistance compared to standard carbon steel without the expense of stainless steel. GAW (Galvanized after Welded) and GBW (Galvanized Before Welded)are common terms in the Wire Mesh Industry. There are various methods of galvanizing. Besides Hot dipped Galvanized After Welded wire mesh ,the most common are electro galvanized welded wire mesh(cold galvanized),electro galvanized before welded wire mesh and hot dipped galvanized welded wire mesh.

• Hot dipped Galvanized After Welded Wire Mesh ,also know as GAW.These products are made by dipping previously welded mesh into a bath of molten zinc. The entire fence or mesh, including the welded areas, is thoroughly sealed and protected against rust and corrosion. Because it is covered with so much more zinc than GBW galvanized before welded wire fencing, it will last years longer.

• Features and Application:It is very popular in breeding industry: Can be made into various animal cages or fences for breeding with its excellent anti-corrosion property. The zinc coating offers a kind of decorative outlook with its flat surface.With first-class anti-corrosion property, it is widely used in mine sieving industries as sieving screen. The low carbon steel wire for making of hot-dipped welded wire mesh offers flexibility that can be made in many further fabrication applications.

• Packing: Welded mesh is wrapped in waterproof paper in rolls. Then in cartons or in pallet.

Common specifications of GAW welded wire fences and meshes are as follows:
