What it is
Barbed wire uses twisted line wires with regularly spaced two- or four-point barbs and is supplied in compact coils.
Common applications
- Farm and pasture boundaries
- Fence top extensions
- Rural property lines
- General perimeter deterrence
Security and Farm Wire
Galvanized and PVC Coated Barbed Wire
Barbed wire is an economical deterrent wire for agricultural and perimeter use. The quotation should state line-wire diameter, barb-wire diameter, barb spacing, number of points, coil length and coating.

How to Specify Barbed Wire
Specify straight barbed wire by strand construction, line-wire and barb-wire diameters, point pattern, barb spacing, roll length, coating and packing.
Details to confirm
- How many strands are required?
- What line-wire and barb-wire diameter or gauge is required?
- Two-point or four-point barbs, and what spacing?
- Roll length, coating, packing, quantity and destination?
For quotation comparison: Compare quotations only when strand count, wire diameters, barb pattern, spacing, roll length, coating and packing use the same scope.
Specifications
Barbed Wire Specifications
Common options use 1.5โ3.0 mm line wire, two- or four-point barbs, 75โ150 mm barb spacing and galvanized or PVC-coated finishes.
| Buying specification | Common options | State in RFQ / drawing |
|---|---|---|
| Main-strand construction | Single or double main strands selected for the fence system | Strand count, twist direction and nominal wire diameter |
| Barb construction | Two-point or four-point barbs formed around the main strand | Point count, barb-wire diameter and formation |
| Barb spacing | Nominal repeat spacing selected for the application | Spacing, tolerance and measurement method |
| Roll format | Coil length and inside/outer geometry selected for handling | Nominal length, coil size, tie points and unit mass method |
| Material and coating | Galvanized or specified wire system selected for exposure | Base wire, coating type/level and test requirement |
| Posts and tensioning | Strainers, line posts, droppers and splices complete the installation | Post spacing, tension points, splice and accessories |
| Packing and handling | Compact coils need ties, labels and controlled pallet/carton count | Units per package, wrap, labels and handling instruction |
