How to Maximize the Lifespan of Galvanized Gabion Baskets

River gabion net is an ecological grid structure commonly used for slope and bank protection engineering, river and flood control and guidance engineering, etc. Usually, the length of its service life is not only closely related to the surrounding environment, but also to its own zinc layer. The number of galvanized layers, the uniformity of the coating, and the firmness of the coating all directly affect the service life of the river gabion mesh. To improve the service life of the river gabion mesh, the surrounding environment cannot be changed. Therefore, we can only find ways from ourselves, focusing on factors such as the number of coatings, the uniformity of the coating, and the firmness of the coating.

The long-term service life of river gabion nets is closely related to the anti-corrosion performance of their materials. It is of great significance to do a good job in anti-corrosion work for gabion nets. 5% zinc aluminum alloy and 10% zinc aluminum alloy are emerging materials internationally in recent years, which are used to replace traditional pure zinc coatings with new types of coatings. Its corrosion resistance is more than three times that of traditional pure galvanized coatings.
