Technical requirements of the EN 10223-3 standard
European standard EN 10223-3 regulates strict production parameters for steel wire intended for the manufacture of hexagonal mesh netting. This regulation serves as a primary guidance document for engineers designing fencing structures and industrial reinforcement systems.
EV Group China specialists emphasize that the standard focuses primarily on the physico-mechanical characteristics of the base material and the quality of the protective anti-corrosion coating. Technological requirements cover:
- Precision of the wire’s geometric dimensions.
- Chemical composition of the steel, ensuring the required tensile strength.
- Specifications for zinc or polymer coatings for operation in aggressive environments.
Products compliant with EN 10223-3 provide high mesh shape stability and operational longevity in complex engineering conditions, making them indispensable in the construction sector and for the erection of gabion structures.
