5% Aluminum-Zinc Soil Erosion Protection Gabion
Products Description:
As we all know, the zinc coated wire has outstanding corrosion and rust resistance performance during using. The aluminum-zinc alloy wire has triple performance and service life than the pure zinc wires.
The zinc-aluminum alloy steel wires are woven or welded into panels and then connected to form cages for protection and decoration. According to different content of aluminum, it can be divided into zinc-5% aluminum-mischmetal (Zn-5 Al-MM) alloy-coated gabion, which is known as Galfan gabion and zinc-10% aluminum-mischmetal (Zn-10 Al-MM) alloy-coated gabion.
Woven Mesh Gabion Baskets or Gabion Cages and es are purpose designed stone filled wire mesh baskets or cages for use as retaining structures. They are also sometimes referred to as just stone filled bastions, stone cages or baskets. Gabion baskets are an economical, environmental and established solution for structural retaining walls and coastal defences. Designed like for like, gabions are hard to beat on cost and aesthetics when compared to other established retaining wall systems such as reinforced concrete and masonry. This is particularly so for low to medium height retaining walls.
Woven mesh gabion baskets are nowadays usually refered to as the traditional gabion. They have been in use for retaining wall construction for a long time and is a tried and tested retaining solution.
Different twist structure
The 5% aluminum-zinc gabions can be made into double twisted structure, which has 3 strands. It can also be made into triple twisted structure, which has 5 strands. The double twisted gabion is suitable for the common applications and is more economical than the triple twisted gabion. The triple twisted gabion has higher tensile strength and stability than the other type. It is suitable for the heavy duty applications to defend the high impacts.
Double twisted structure. Triple twisted structure.

Gabion box application:
- Retaining wall structures
- River and canal training works
- Erosion and scour protection; roadway protection; bridge protection
- Hydraulic structures, dams and culverts
- Coastal defence and protection works
- Rockfall and soil erosion protection
Features of the Gabion:
The pliability and flexibility of the woven mesh makes it extremely flexible and tough and the ideal solution for civil engineering applications typically on poor or uneven ground, where some deformation of the basket is required or expected. The resulting wall also tends to look more natural, giving it a dry stone wall effect. As a result it particularly suits retaining wall applications for river training and coastal defence applications.
Woven Mesh Gabion retaining walls can be designed using the traditional gravity retaining wall concept, or alternatively, they can also be used as the facing element for reinforced earth retaining structures.
