Rural and Coastal Fencing

Stainless Steel Rural & Coastal Fencing will stand the test of time to Australia’s harsh environment & weather conditions.

Galvanized fences corrode and often fail as an enclosure or barrier. Don’t take a shortcut when stainless steel is a longer-lasting alternative that reduces maintenance and will not lead to safety issues.

Different materials have different Tensile Strengths and there is a slight difference between Stainless Steel and Galvanised Fencing. The strength of the fencing wire is also a function of the wire diameter.  Stainless Steel will not corrode and therefore will maintain its wire diameter and strength for the life of the fence. Galvanised Fencing products will corrode, and this will affect the wire diameter and the strength of the fencing. Depending on the location, the Galvanised Fencing may corrode to significantly reduce the wire diameter and fence strength within a few years while Stainless Steel Fencing remains strong.
There are several different configurations of fencing products available. These are the traditional horizontal wires at different heights that are supported with vertical wires with SSWM’s own Strong Lock design. These can also be supplemented with additional horizontal wires to improve strength as well as the Stainless Steel Hexagonal Mesh that can be used at the base of the fence. The good thing about Stainless Steel fencing is it can be “dug” into the soil and will not reduce its asset life. This will help with keeping feral animals out that dig under fencing to gain access into conservational areas.
No, unlike galvanised fencing that leaches zinc, Stainless Steel is stable and doesn’t breakdown. This means that native fauna will not be exposed to zinc residue when Stainless Steel fencing is installed.
Stainless Steel posts due to their weight would be significantly more expensive than pine posts. It is thought that if Stainless Steel “Star Pickets” were used then these would be stolen and sold as scrap steel. This would mean the fence would be replaced all the time and not be an effective barrier against feral animals. Stainless Steel “Star Pickets” can be used in private locations where the risk of theft is low. Given the amount of copper that is stolen from building sites and trainlines, it is believed unfortunately that stainless steel pickets would be stolen as well!
Stainless Steel fencing materials will not accelerate the corrosion rate of steel when in contact with them because the area of Stainless Steel in contact with the Steel as a ratio is quite low.  There would be a problem if Stainless Steel posts were used with Galvanised steel fencing mesh as the ratio of stainless steel in contact with the steel is quite high.
Yes, initially and no once you factor in replacement cost and maintenance. The initial costs of the material is higher than traditional fencing material but it is only a small % of the total cost of the fencing (labour costs are approximately 50% with posts 25%). Given that Galvanised wire requires regular replacing over the life of the project, then the costs are actually less when using Stainless Steel materials.
The main reason is because it lasts. Galvanised fencing has a layer of zinc coating that is added to the mild steel wire that provides protection against rusting. Once the zinc has corroded then the mild steel is exposed and will rust out. Stainless steel on the other hand doesn’t have a protective coating additive and the right grade of stainless steel in the application will not corrode.
