Standards, certificates & inspection
Manufactured and tested to ASTM A641, EN 10244-2, BS EN 10218 or your customer standard. Every batch is produced under an ISO 9001 quality management system and can ship with a mill test certificate covering diameter, tensile strength and zinc-coating weight. Third-party or pre-shipment inspection (SGS, BV or customer-appointed) is available on request.
See test reports & inspection and quality control & testing for the full documentation.
Frequently asked questions
What is Galfan wire?
Steel wire with a Zn-5%Al (Galfan) coating that resists corrosion far better than plain zinc, used for gabions and fencing in exposed and hydraulic works.
Which standard applies?
EN 10244-2 / ISO 7989-2 for the Zn-Al coating, with class and tensile confirmed to your gabion specification.
What sizes are available?
Around 2.2–3.4 mm here; the exact diameter, coating class and tensile are confirmed per order.
