7 min read →Buyer FAQ
Which barbed wire gauge should I order?
The most traded export combinations are 12#×14# and 14#×14# SWG — heavy enough for livestock fence lines while keeping coil weight economical. Use heavier 10#–12# strands for high-tension boundary runs and lighter 16# combinations for security toppings.
What is the difference between normal twist and reverse twist?
Normal twist winds both strands in one continuous direction. Reverse twist alternates the twist direction between barbs, which locks the barbs more firmly and keeps the strands from unravelling when cut — preferred in many African and Middle East markets.
