Gabions


Product Description

Wire gabions are modular, wire mesh containers filled with rock or stone, used for erosion control, slope stabilization, and architectural applications. They are available in welded or double-twisted mesh configurations and can be galvanized, PVC-coated, or other protective layers depending on the project needs.

Features & Benefits

  • Available in welded wire or double-twisted hexagonal mesh
  • Common wire gauges: 9 ga (welded), 10.5–13.5 ga (twisted)
  • Coatings: Galvanized, PVC, Galfan, or other protective layers (limited availability)
  • Modular basket sizes (e.g., 6’x3’x3′, 9’x3’x3′, 12’x3’x3′)
  • Internal diaphragms for structural integrity and rock confinement
  • Spiral binders or tie wire for field assembly
  • Flexible and permeable structure conforms to ground movement
  • Meets ASTM A975 and A641 standards for gabion construction
  • Provides long-term erosion protection and slope stability
  • Allows natural drainage and reduces hydrostatic pressure
  • Environmentally friendly—supports vegetation growth over time
  • Durable and resistant to weathering and corrosion
  • Can be stacked or terraced for retaining wall applications
  • Cost-effective alternative to concrete or masonry walls
  • Aesthetic options for architectural and landscape use

Applications

  • Retaining walls
  • Streambank and shoreline protection
  • Channel lining and culvert outfalls
  • Slope stabilization
  • Bridge abutments and wing walls
  • Noise barriers and fencing
  • Architectural walls and landscape features
