Concertina Razor Wire of Linkland?

Points to note when selecting Razor Wire ?

The core wire diameter:

2.5mm is the industry standard, anything less has proportionately less tensile and inherent strength.

The number of loops per coil

This determines the amount of Razor wire on the coil and therefore the profile density when deployed, an important point when comparing prices. All our coils have 55 loops per coil, this means the coils can be extended easily up to 10m whilst maintaining a dense profile of Razor wire.

Stainless Steel or Galvanized?

The environment the product is being deployed in may determine whether Stainless Steel or Galvanized is the best option. Stainless Steel is considerably more expensive but offers greater durability especially in salt air environments and over time will outlast Galvanized therefore making it the best long term option in salt air. However Galvanized is more than adequate for most of the regions and applications. We would always suggest you check the level of zinc coating when selecting Razor wire, all our galvanized products are more than 200g/m2, if the supplier cannot provide the information, you may only be getting a product with 60g/m2 which will deteriorate and rust much more quickly.

Blade type

Smaller blades such as BTO10 (10mm) are quite small and therefore less of a deterrent, larger blade profiles such as CBT65 (65mm) are much more effective but the blade type will also be reflected in the price.

Blade thickness

0.5mm is the industry standard, anything less is likely to bend easily.
