Barbed Wire

Wire fence is an inexpensive way to secure a perimeter in order to forbid entry, and keep cattle in.

• Wire barb works as a detterrent against forced entry by people and vehicles. It also serves as an enclosure for animals. Its barbs deter animals and people from pushing through or rubbing against the fence.


• Wire barbed fence allows maximum visibility compared to fence panels for example. Not only farmers, workers and guards get a clear view of what or who is standing behind the wire fence, but it also let small animals, birds through.


• Wire with barbs can be used as a standalone setup or as a security addition to an exisiting fencing system. Chain link with barbed wire are quite standard. The barbed wire sits atop the diamond link fence and prevents intruders from climbing up and down the fence.


• Ga wire fence, also known as coated barbed wire performs well outdoor. Once installed and tensionned, the barbed fence needs none to little maintenance.


• One of the cheapest fence systems, single strand barbed wire comes at a very low bulk price. Most fencing supplies importers purchase both single and double strand options that speak to different customer segments.

Barbed wire fencing is an efficient and economical fencing solution extensively used for securing perimeters. It consists of a wire or a strand of wires twisted together with sharp barbs or points at regular intervals.

The barbs, usually made of steel, serve as a deterrent for any individual or animal attempting to breach the fence. The barbs can cause discomfort or injury, thereby discouraging unauthorized access.

Barbed wire fencing comes in diverse forms, each designed to cater to specific needs. Here's a rundown of the most common types:

Twisted Barbed Wire

Twisted barbed wire fencing involves two primary variants:

Conventional Twist Barbed Wire: This type features two wires twisted together with barbs fitted onto the wire at regular intervals.


Reverse Twist Barbed Wire: In this variant, the barbs are twisted in the opposite direction of the wires' main body. This unique design prevents the barbs from being pulled out of the wire, enhancing the fence's durability.

Twisted Barbed Wire

Galvanized Barbed Wire: This type of barbed wire is made by combining steel wire with a zinc coating through a process known as galvanization. The zinc coating protects the steel wire from rust and corrosion.


PVC Coated Barbed Wire: This type involves coating barbed wire with a layer of Polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which protects the wire from dirt, chemicals, and UV rays.


High Tensile Steel Barbed Wire: This variant is made from high tensile steel, which gives the wire an increased strength and resistance to breakage.

Strand-Based Barbed Wire

• Single Barb Wire: Also known as 2-point barbed wire, it contains a single barb twisted on a line wire that forms two points.


• Double Wire Barbed: Also known as 4-point barbed wire, it consists of two barbs twisted together on a line wire, forming four points.

Agricultural Containment: The primary use of barbed wire fencing is to contain livestock. It is adaptable for a number of fencing needs and used to protect the property against intruders and wildlife.


Security Purposes: Barbed wire fences are used in high-security areas such as private properties, military bases, prisons, and industrial complexes to deter unauthorized access.


Commercial and Industrial Projects: Barbed wire fences are installed in commercial or industrial premises to safeguard them from intruders.

While simple, wire barb fencing requires several manufacturing steps. It starts with a steel billet, rolled into a rod, rolled into coil. Steel wire coil is then fed into a die that reduces its cross-section. This step is called wire drawing. Wire is then fed into a barbed wire making machine that twists a strand onto one other to make a complete barbed wire.

The cost of barbed wire fencing is determined by several factors, including the type of barbed wire, length on the spool, packaging and quantity. Other aspects can impact on the price of barbed wire fence since as zinc coat thickness, tensile steel grade, barbs per meter length, etc.. However once all specifications have been provided, DELITE usually takes only a few hours to provide fencing importers with a quote.

Barbed wire for agricultural purpose is usually secure to posts to create a quasi invisible wall for cattle and other animal. But it can also be installed on top of a chain link fence for added security. This involves attaching brackets to the top of the fence posts and running the barbed wire through the brackets.
The following steps applies to both applications:

Setting the Fence Posts: Fence posts should be installed every 8 to 12 feet. For uneven ground, place posts closer together.


Stretching the Wire: Once the fence posts are installed, the barbed wire is stretched over the posts and secured in place.


Attaching the Barbed Wire: The barbed wire is then attached to the fence posts using staples or fencing clips.


Adding Additional Lines of Wire: For added security, multiple lines of barbed wire can be added to the fence.
