Welded Wire Partitions and Gauge Sizes

Welded wire partitions are typically made using a series of galvanized steel wires arranged perpendicularly and welded together at their points of contact. This allows welded wire partitions to better maintain their shape when it is being stressed.

When making wire partitions, the wire diameter, or gauge, is an important factor in determining the specifications. There are many different wire sizes that can be used in their fabrication. However, selecting the right gauge depends on the steel wire's final use – as a single wire strand, to make welded wire partitions or security fencing.

To make the wire, single rods of steel are "drawn" through a series of increasingly smaller dies
until they are eventually reduced to the required gauge.

The gauge value originally referred to the number of draws needed to make the required diameter. The first draw was called 1-gauge, the second 2-gauge, the third 3-gauge, etc. This is why thick wires have a lower gauge number. For example, a 9-gauge wire is thicker than 14-gauge wire because it requires fewer "draws".

In 1855, a formula-based designation was established to standardize gauge sizes in the United States. Known today as the American Wire Gauge, it features a progression of 39 steps ? from 1-gauge to 40-gauge.

The same gauge numbers are used in different countries, unfortunately they refer to different wire diameters. This has become a great cause of confusion. Nowadays, many companies prefer to measure wire diameters in millimeters or inches instead of gauge numbers.

Welded Wire Partitions

Although welded wire partitions are available in a variety of wire gauges:
6-gauge and 10-gauge wire are the industry standard. 6-gauge is a heavier duty wire and measures approximately 0.192 inches thick. 10-gauge wire measures approximately 0.135 inches. Both gauges work for the majority of applications, although the thicker and more expensive 6-gauge wire provides a sturdier panel.
