EN 10223-1 Steel Wire and Wire Products for Fences and Nets - Zinc and Zinc Alloy Coated Steel Barbed Wire

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, offers precise and rapid testing services within the scope of EN 10223-1 test. This European Standard covers conventional and reverse-twisted zinc-plated and zinc-alloy coated steel barbed wire consisting of two strands of braided line wire around which the barbs are tightly wrapped, with a twist applied between the barbs to restrict their movement. Barbed wire entanglement involves a single line of wire around which barbs are wrapped.

Wire shall be zinc-plated or zinc-alloy coated in accordance with EN 10244-2 before being formed into barbed wire, except for tangling barbed wire, which may be made of bright wire and suitably coated (other than zinc) as the final product.

EN 10223-1 specifies dimensions such as wire diameter, barb spacing, barb length and tolerances to which barbed wire must comply. This ensures that the wire is consistent in size and design.

The standard may include requirements regarding the mechanical properties of barbed wire, including tensile strength and elongation. This ensures that the wire has the necessary strength and durability for the intended use.

The standard may specify test methods and requirements for the adhesion of zinc or zinc alloy coating to steel wire necessary to prevent corrosion.

EN 10223-1 may outline guidelines for the packaging and labeling of barbed wire products. Provides information on correct labeling, compliance with the standard, manufacturer details and installation instructions.

To ensure that barbed wire products comply with EN 10223-1, manufacturers generally follow the requirements specified in the standard during the design, production and testing stages. Users and buyers of barbed wire can also refer to the standard to ensure that the products they purchase meet established quality and safety standards.
