The 358 fence, also known as Anti-Climb Fence or "Prison Mesh," is a specialized fencing panel manufactured by Top Fencing, one of the leading manufacturers in the industry. Its name "358" originates from its dimensions: 3 inches by 0.5 inches by 8 gauge, which is approximately 76.2mm by 12.7mm by 4mm in metric units. This fence features a sturdy steel framework coated with zinc or RAL color powder for durability.

Hot-Dip Galvanizing Process

Hot-dip galvanizing is a galvanization method where fabricated steel, such as 358 fencing, is immersed in a bath of molten zinc. The process includes several stages:

Surface Preparation: Degreasing, rinsing, and pickling the steel to remove impurities.
Fluxing: Submerging the steel into a flux solution to prevent oxidation.
Galvanizing: Dipping the prepared metal in a zinc bath heated to about 450°C.
Cooling and Inspection: After the zinc coating is applied, the fencing is cooled and inspected for quality assurance.

Advantages of Hot-Dip Galvanizing for 358 Fencing

Long-Term Cost-Effectiveness: Though upfront costs may be higher, the longevity of galvanized fencing reduces the need for frequent replacements.
Extended Service Life: A galvanized 358 fence can last decades without significant corrosion.
Low Maintenance: The durability of the zinc coating means less upkeep is required.
Corrosion Resistance: The zinc acts as a sacrificial anode, providing superior protection against rust.
Reduced On-Site Inspection: Due to its durability, hot-dipped galvanized 358 fencing requires less frequent checks.
Self-Healing Feature: Minor scratches and cuts in the coating can self-repair, preventing rust at the damage points.

Electro-Galvanizing: The First Line of Defense

Electro-galvanizing is a process where a layer of zinc is applied to the steel wire of the 358 fences through electrical current. This method provides a fine and uniform protective coat, which acts as a barrier against corrosion and rust.

Powder Coating: The Final Touch

Following electro-galvanizing, powder coating offers both protection and beauty. This method involves spraying electrically charged particles of pigmented resins onto the surface, which are then cured under heat to form a durable, decorative finish. The color selection is guided by the RAL color card, offering a wide range of choices to meet design preferences.

Advantages of Electro-Galvanized and Powder-Coated 358 Fencing

Economic Efficiency: The combined processes extend the life of the fence, reducing the need for replacements.
Safety: Powder coating smooths out sharp edges, making the fence safe to the touch.
Environmental Benefits: These treatments are more environmentally friendly compared to traditional galvanizing.
Cost Savings: Longevity and low maintenance lead to cost savings over time.
Elegant Appearance: The wide array of colors available through powder coating can complement any surroundings and architectural style.

Treatment options for 358 fence panels include:

Start with using hot-dipped galvanized or electro-galvanized wire as the material. After welding, apply PVC or plastic spraying.
Weld low carbon steel wire to the panel, then treat it with electro or hot-dipped galvanization, and finish with PVC treatment.
In Europe, the common practice is to opt for galvanization after welding or PVC application after welding.

Processing:

Straighten and cut the wire to the required length.
Weld the wire to form panels.
Apply galvanization to protect against corrosion.
