The "Big Four" in barbed wire were Joseph Glidden, Jacob Haish, Charles Francis Washburn, and Isaac L. Glidden's Improvement to barbed wire (24 November 1874) A cost-effective alternative was needed to make cattle operations profitable. Traditional fence materials used in the Eastern U.S., like wood and stone, were expensive to use in the large open spaces of the plains, and hedging was not reliable in the rocky, clay-based and rain-starved dusty soils. The railroads throughout the growing West needed to keep livestock off their tracks, and farmers needed to keep stray cattle from trampling their crops. Ranchers moved out on the plains, and needed to fence their land in against encroaching farmers and other ranchers. After the American Civil War the plains were extensively settled, consolidating America's dominance over them. Before 1870, westward movement in the United States was largely across the plains with little or no settlement occurring. Only two of them addressed livestock deterrence, one of which was from American Lucien B. More patents followed, and in 1867 alone there were six patents issued for barbed wire. Michael Kelly from New York had a similar idea, and proposed that the fencing should be used specifically for deterring animals. In April 1865 Louis François Janin proposed a double wire with diamond-shaped metal barbs Francois was granted a patent. His design consisted of bristling points, creating a fence that was painful to cross. Besides, the barb wires are twisted outside of the two line wire.įencing consisting of flat and thin wire was first proposed in France, by Leonce Eugene Grassin-Baledans in 1860. The strand wire (line wire) are twisted in opposite direction.
Besides, the barb wires are twisted between the two strand wire (line wire).
The strand wire (line wire) are twisted in single direction, which is also known as traditional twist. Two barb wires twisted on the line wire (strand wire). It uses single barb wire twisted on the line wire (strand wire). Conventional structure with double strand wire (line wire) and barbs. Simple and light duty structure with single line wire (also known as strand wire) and barbs. It is available with SAE 304, 316 and other materials. Zinc steel wire or zinc-aluminum steel wire with PVC, PE or other organic polymer coating. Barbed wire is available with zinc, 5% or 10% aluminum alloy and mischmetal steel wire, which is also known as Galfan wire. Zinc-aluminum alloy coated steel wire.Or it is also well known as electric galvanized steel wire and hot dipped galvanized steel wire. It has commercial type, Class 1 type and Class 3 type. Galvanized steel-wire is the most widely used steel wire during barbed wire production. You can help by converting this section, if appropriate.
