Steel Ring Mesh (3 mm Wire Diameter)

This ring is an energy-dissipating element manufactured from multi-wound steel wire, used in rockfall barrier systems for the purpose of controlled dissipation of impact energy. At the moment of impact, the ring undergoes controlled plastic deformation, distributing the load over time, limiting sudden increases in force, and preserving the overall stability of the barrier system. Thanks to its multi-winding structure, the load is not concentrated at a single point; instead, deformation is distributed around the circumference of the ring. In this way, the risk of rupture is reduced while ensuring safe performance at high energy levels. Its galvanized or Galfan-coated surface makes it suitable for outdoor conditions, corrosion resistance, and long-term field use. The ring element is positioned between the main load-bearing mesh and the anchorage or connection components in rockfall barrier systems, functioning as an auxiliary dissipater that increases the energy absorption capacity of the system. ⸻
