Description
1.25mm Galvanised Line Tension Wire
A 1.25mm 500g coil of galvanised steel line wire would be suitable for a variety of uses, such as supporting or tensioning fencing, tension wiring in general, trellising vines or plants, or creating wire structures for gardening or landscaping.
The diameter of 1.25mm is relatively thick, which makes this wire strong and sturdy, and able to withstand significant weight or pressure. The galvanising process adds a layer of zinc to the wire, which helps to protect it against rust and corrosion, extending its lifespan and making it suitable for outdoor use.
The 500g coil size is also a convenient size for most DIY or small-scale projects, and the length of the wire in the coil will depend on the specific product and manufacturer.
The ideal wire to compliment our green coated chicken wire and wire fencing mesh rolls.
Quick details:
- Wire Type – Galvanised Steel
- Wire Thickness – 1.25mm
- Coil Weight – 500g (0.5kg)
- Wire Length – 50 Metres

FAQs For This Product
How Is Galvanised Tension Wiring Different From Other Types Of Wire?
Galvanised tension wiring is different from other types of wire in that it has been treated with a layer of zinc to protect it from rust and corrosion. This process, called galvanisation, involves immersing the wire in a bath of molten zinc, which adheres to the surface of the wire and forms a protective coating.
The galvanisation process makes the wire more durable and long-lasting than other types of wire that are not galvanised. Galvanised tension wire can be used in a variety of applications, such as fencing, trellising, and other outdoor projects, where it is exposed to moisture, humidity, and other environmental factors.
In addition to its protective coating, galvanised tension wire is typically made of high-tensile steel, which gives it greater strength and elasticity than other types of wire. This makes it well-suited for applications where the wire needs to be tensioned or withstand significant weight or pressure.
Is Galvanised Tension Wiring Suitable For Outdoor Use?
Yes, galvanised tension wiring is suitable for outdoor use and is often used in applications that require durability and resistance to the elements. The galvanisation process involves coating the wire with a layer of zinc, which provides protection against rust and corrosion.
Galvanised tension wire is commonly used in outdoor projects such as fencing, trellising, and other structures that are exposed to moisture, humidity, and other environmental factors. It is designed to withstand harsh outdoor conditions and can be used in a variety of weather conditions without losing its strength or shape.
How Strong Is It?
The strength of galvanised tension wire can vary depending on factors such as the gauge or diameter of the wire, the specific type of steel used, and the manufacturing process. In general, however, galvanised tension wire is designed to be strong and durable, and is typically able to withstand significant weight or pressure without breaking or losing its shape.
The term “tensile strength” is used to describe the amount of force that a wire can withstand before it breaks. High-tensile galvanised tension wire is designed to have a higher tensile strength than standard wire, which allows it to be tensioned to a higher level without breaking.
The strength of galvanised tension wire is typically measured in pounds or kilograms, and will vary depending on the specific gauge or diameter of the wire. Thicker wires will generally be stronger than thinner wires, and higher-quality steel will typically have greater strength and durability than lower-quality steel.
Is Galvanised Tension Wiring Safe Around Animals?
Galvanised tension wiring is generally considered safe for use around animals, although precautions should be taken to ensure that the wire is installed and used properly to minimize the risk of injury.
The zinc coating on galvanised tension wire provides protection against rust and corrosion, which can help to extend the lifespan of the wire and prevent it from breaking or becoming damaged over time. However, the wire can still pose a potential hazard to animals if it is not installed correctly or if it becomes damaged or frayed.
To ensure the safety of animals around galvanised tension wiring, it’s important to:
- Use appropriate gauge and thickness of wire for the intended application
- Install the wire securely and properly tensioned to prevent sagging or breakage
- Regularly inspect the wire for signs of damage or wear
- Use appropriate fencing or barriers to prevent animals from coming into contact with the wire
- Take precautions to minimise the risk of electrical shock, particularly in situations where the wire may come into contact with power sources.
How Long Does It Last?
The lifespan of galvanised tension wire can vary depending on a number of factors, such as the quality of the wire, the thickness of the zinc coating, and the environmental conditions it is exposed to. However, in general, galvanised tension wire is designed to be durable and long-lasting, and can be expected to last for many years when installed and used properly.
A well-made and properly installed galvanised tension wire can last for decades, even in harsh outdoor environments. The zinc coating on the wire helps to protect it from rust and corrosion, which can significantly extend its lifespan compared to non-galvanised wire.
In addition to the quality of the wire and the environmental conditions, the lifespan of galvanised tension wire may also depend on the specific application and the amount of stress and tension the wire is subjected to. For example, wire that is heavily tensioned or supports a significant weight may wear out more quickly than wire that is used for lighter applications.
