Razor Wire has a central strand of high tensile strength wire, and a steel tape punched into a shape with barbs. The steel tape is then cold-crimped tightly to the wire everywhere except for the barbs. Razor Wire is a mesh of metal strips with sharp edges whose purpose is to prevent passage by humans.
Razor Wire is manufactured using a Central Core of high Tensile Wire - around which a tape of razor sharp barbs is machine crimped. The resulting razor wire is therefore exceedingly difficult to cut using hand tools.
Razor Wire is very strong and reinforced with a steel coil which makes it very hard to bend, while the barbs have a piercing and gripping action
The diameter of the razor wire coils can range from 18 inches to 60 inches, while 30-inch products are among the most often specified for medium or high security applications. Concertina configuration is available, which makes the razor wire barrier much more dense and difficult to penetrate. It is almost vital for products of 30 inch diameter and greater. Please tell us the specifications of Razor Wire that you need and we constantly strive to exceed the expectations of our customers.
