358 Security Welded Wire Mesh Fence

Security 358 mesh is the ultimate welded mesh system offering one of the most effective means of providing a high degree of physical perimeter protection where a discreet visual impact on the immediate environment is essential.

Why called 358 Security Mesh Fence?

“358” comes its measurements 3”x 0.5”x 8gauge which equates to approx 76.2mm x 12.7mm x 4mm in metric. This security 358 mesh is extremely difficult to penetrate, with the small mesh aperture being effectively finger proof, and extremely difficult to attack using conventional hand tools.

Where the application specifically demands a heavy duty security mesh design to meet specifications including the use of CCTV, or where a visual deterrent is a primary consideration, our 358 Security Mesh system provides an ideal solution for a wide variety of high security perimeter and access control applications.

The climb resistant mesh (sometimes referred to as prison mesh or 358 mesh) with its small apertures and welds at each intersection eliminate foot and finger holds, prevent objects being passed through and is particularly effective against the use of conventional hand cutting tools.

358 Security Mesh Fence Material

– Welded by electrode galvanized hard drawn wire, then do powder coating after welding.
– Welded by low carbon steel wire, then do electrode galvanization & powder coating after welding.
– Welded by low carbon steel wire, then do hot dip galvanization.
– Welded by GALFAN wire, then do powder coating

358 Security Mesh Fence Terms
Security 358 mesh Fencing–Construction

The panels are manufactured to form a mesh pattern of 3″ x 1/2″ (76.2mm x 12.7mm) using 1/6″ (4mm) vertical and horizontal wires which are resistance welded at each intersection. This method of construction produces a panel that is both formidable in strength and appearance. The panels are 2133.6mm wide and heights range from 900 to 4000mm.
Weld strength is 75% of the minimum tensile strength of the wire (tensile range 540-690 N/m²).

358 Security Mesh Fence Applications

– The Security system is developed for all applications where total security is essential:
schools, warehouses, distribution centers, power plants, laboratories, computer centers, financial institutions, military sites, penitentiaries, etc.
– For specific applications (e.g. prisons) particular solutions can be proposed.

– Available as a complete system

358 Security Mesh Fence Qinghe Advantages

– High Security
Security 358 security panels are extremely difficult to penetrate, with the small mesh aperture being effectively finger proof, and extremely difficult to attack using conventional hand tools.

It is also very difficult and time consuming to attempt to pass items from the protected area through the fencing, and for this reason alone makes the protection of valuable wire and cable a viable proposition.

– Resistance to burrowing and climbing
The bottom of the panel can be supplied extended 300mm in base for burying below the ground.
A concrete sill can also be specified to counter efforts to burrow beneath the fence line. Brackets to support barbed wire or tape provide additional protection to deter the most ambitious climber.

Posts and fixings
Security 358 mesh posts are manufactured from 60x60mm , 80x80mm and 100 x 100mm square hollow section and are holed for bolt through fixing. which is offered in the heights from 1.20m to 4.6m. Posts come inclusive of top caps.

The panels are attached to the post by means of a 75mm panel overlap and clamp bar arrangement which is securely fixed to the post by M8 bolts and Permacone nuts. Factory fitted inserts together with stainless steel Permabolts are available as an option.
