Galvanized Before Welded - GBW - wire meshes and fences are economical and ideal for many uses. The wires used in the manufacturing process are galvanized before they are welded into a variety of mesh sizes. Different gauge wires are used. The gauge and mesh sizes are determined by the final use of the product. Smaller meshes made with lighter gauge wires are ideal for making cages for small animals. The heavier gauges and meshes with larger openings make good fences.

This wire mesh is the most economical. However it has a limited lifetime. During the welding process, single strands of galvanized wire pass through the welder. The rust-preventing galvanizing is burned off at the weld points where the wires intersect. Water will collect at these weld points where the galvanizing is compromised, causing rust. GBW wire is a general purpose welded wire mesh which is ideal to use for small animal cages, such as rabbits. It can aslo be used as a low-cost wire fence, dog kennels and a variety of other uses.

GBW products have one disadvantage. During the welding process, the galvanizing at the weld spots, where the wires intersect, is burned away. This leaves places in the mesh that have lost the galvanizing protection against rust and corrosion. The weld locations are critical spots that tend to hold moisture longer than the individual wires. This can promote a more rapid decay, as rust eats into the unprotected steel. In interior locations, where the mesh or fence is not exposed to the elements, this is not as much of a problem. Heavier gauge wire will last longer due to the fact that it will take longer for rust to eat through the wire.
