When choosing your galvanized chain link fence system, insist on Galvanized After Weaving (GAW) fence fabric. GAW is the only zinc coated chain link fabric that is coated after weaving, ensuring that all surfaces of the base metal are protected. Combined with zinc coated framework, galvanized chain link fence systems provide exceptional security and protection in commercial, industrial, residential and recreational fencing applications.
- Maintenance free - never needs painting.
- Meets ASTM Specification A 392 for Zinc-Coated Chain Link Fence Fabric.
- Meets U.S. Federal Specification RR-F-191, most State Government specifications and AASHTO-M18
Note about gauges:
The smaller the number, the heavier the fabric; ie 9 gauge is heavier than 11 gauge.. We recommend 11 gauge for residential jobs and 9 gauge for commercial jobs. Heavier gauges are not only stronger, but have a better finish; the heavier the gauge the longer it may be 'hot-dip galvanized' to prevent rust and corrosion.
Stay Away from Big Box Home Improvement Stores:
These stores carry sub-par chain link fence fabric, fence framework and fittings. Take our word for it.
