When packing chain link fence rolls, it is essential to protect the material from damage during transportation and storage. Here are some additional steps for packing chain link fence rolls with plastic film or PP bags and using metal stillages:
- Roll up the chain link fence: Begin by rolling the chain link fence tightly and evenly to prevent tangling or damage to the wire.
- Secure the roll: Use heavy-duty zip ties or metal bands to secure the roll and maintain its shape during transportation.
- Wrap with plastic film or PP bags: Cover both ends of the chain link fence with plastic film or PP bags. Ensure the material is adequately covered to protect against moisture, dust, and debris.
- Attach identification labels: Label the rolls with relevant information, such as product type, dimensions, and weight, to ensure easy identification and handling during transportation and storage.
- Place rolls onto metal stillages: Carefully place the wrapped chain link fence onto metal stillages or pallets designed to hold and protect the rolls. Ensure that the rolls are well-supported and evenly distributed on the stillage to prevent shifting or damage during transportation.
- Secure rolls to stillages: Use straps or bands to secure the chain link fence to the metal stillages, ensuring they remain stable during transit.
- Stack stillages: If you need to transport multiple rolls of chain link fence, stack the metal stillages to maximize space. Ensure that the bottom stillage can support the weight of the stacked rolls and that they are stable to prevent accidents during transportation.
- Cover the entire stillage: Before shipping or storing the chain link fence rolls, cover the entire stillage with a tarp or weather-resistant cover to protect the rolls from the elements.

The production of chain link fence involves several steps and processes to ensure a high-quality and durable end product. Here is an overview of the manufacturing process:
- Wire drawing: The process begins with raw steel wire, which is drawn through a series of dies to reduce its diameter to the desired size. The wire is then straightened and cut to the required length.
- Galvanizing: In the case of galvanized chain link fences, the steel wire is coated with zinc through a hot-dip galvanizing process. The wire is submerged in a bath of molten zinc, which forms a protective layer to prevent rust and corrosion.
- PVC coating (optional): For PVC-coated chain link fences, the galvanized wire is coated with a layer of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or other polymer material. This additional layer provides extra protection against corrosion and weathering, and it also adds color to the fence.
- Weaving: The coated wire is fed into a chain link weaving machine, which twists and interlocks the wires into a diamond pattern. This creates the characteristic chain link fence fabric. The machine can be adjusted to produce various mesh sizes and wire thicknesses, depending on the specific requirements of the fence.
- Edging: Once the chain link fabric is woven, the edges are finished with a process called “knuckling” or “twisting.” Knuckling involves bending the wire ends back into the mesh to create a smooth, rounded edge, while twisting involves twisting the wire ends together to create a secure, pointed edge. The choice of edging depends on the desired level of security and the specific application of the fence.
- Cutting and rolling: The finished chain link fabric is cut to the required length and rolled up for packaging and transportation. Rolls are typically available in various standard lengths, such as 25, 50, or 100 feet.
Conclusion
Chain link fence rolls are a versatile, cost-effective, and low-maintenance fencing solution for various applications. They offer several benefits, including easy installation, durability, and adaptability to different property types. By understanding the key features and applications of chainwire fence, you can make an informed decision when choosing the right fencing material for your specific needs.
