Double Twist Hexagonal Mesh Netting

This document discusses rock netting mesh and a 3D Polymat erosion control backing mesh. The rock netting mesh is constructed from pre-galvanized and plastic coated wire to standards to arrest falling rock. It features a double twist to prevent unraveling if a wire is broken. The Polymat backing mesh can be supplied attached to or separately from the rock netting rolls. It is a three-dimensional structure made of oriented polypropylene meshes that helps sustain plant growth and prevents erosion.

Designed specifically as rock netting and to arrest falling rock from encroaching onto roads, railways and other

traffic
areas, our mesh is constructed from pre-galvanised, plastic coated wire to the relevant standards (see overleaf). The mesh
features a double twist, which will not unravel should one wire be accidentally broken.
As the wire is both pre-galvanised and plastic coated the mesh can be used in aggressive environments. When secured
with fibreglass bolts and non-metallic end plates the risk of damage to the coatings is greatly reduced, thereby preventing
the ingress of corrosive elements.
Weldgrip also stock and supply a 3D Polymat erosion control geo-mat which can be used as a backing mesh. We can
supply the Polymat ready attached to the rock netting, or seperately.
Polymat is used to help sustain plant growth during initial planting stages and in order to prevent washout and soil erosion
during heavy rainfall and strong winds.

Rock netting with Polymat backing mesh.
Polymat is a
Three-dimensional
structure manufactured
From three polypropylene meshes
that have been extruded and sub-
sequently orientated. The mat has a tensile
strength of 3.8 kN/m and a low unit weight
which makes it ideally suited for installation
on steep slopes.
