ASTM A975 Standard Gabion Basket

In landslide protection and riverbank stabilization, a single wire failure can lead to catastrophic structural collapse. Ordinary wire mesh often lacks the tensile strength and coating consistency required for government-grade projects.

Our Gabion Baskets are manufactured strictly to ASTM A975-11 (or latest) standards for Double-Twisted Hexagonal Mesh. This ensures that even if a single wire is cut, the mesh will not unravel, maintaining the integrity of your retaining wall or erosion control system.


Applications in Civil Infrastructure

Mass Gravity Retaining Walls: Reliable soil retention for highway and railway embankments.

Riverbank & Channel Lining: High-velocity water erosion protection for sustainable water management.

Bridge Abutment Protection: Scour protection around critical bridge piers and foundations.

Rockfall Protection Netting: High-tensile barriers to safeguard infrastructure in mountainous terrain.

Key Performance Advantages

Premium Corrosion Barriers: We utilize Galfan coating which offers 2-3 times the corrosion resistance of traditional galvanization, or heavy-duty PVC coating for projects involving marine environments or high-pollution areas.

Modular & Rapid Installation: Designed for easy on-site assembly. The foldable units reduce shipping costs, and the hexagonal structure allows for easy filling with local stone, significantly speeding up construction timelines.

Permeability & Ecology: These gabions allow for natural water drainage, eliminating the buildup of hydrostatic pressure behind the wall. Over time, silt and vegetation fill the voids, creating a living, self-stabilizing green infrastructure.

Flexible Structural Integrity: Unlike rigid concrete, our ASTM A975 gabions can deform and adapt to ground movement and subsoil settlement without losing their load-bearing capacity.

Quality Assurance & Certifications

Full Lab Test Reports: Every batch is tested for zinc/Galfan coating weight, wire tensile strength, and mesh elongation.

Compliance Certification: We provide MTC (Mill Test Certificates) and compliance letters stating adherence to ASTM A975-97/ASTM A975-11 specifications.

Global Supply Capability: Backed by ISO 9001 certified manufacturing, ensuring consistent quality for large-scale international tenders.
