6、cally wound and interwoven in such a manner asto provide a continuous mesh without knots or ties except inthe form of knuckling, or of twisting the ends of the wires toform the selvage of the fabric.3.1.2 diamond countthe number of diamond openingsfrom one edge of the fabric to the other. The diamon

7、d count ofa given fabric shall begin at the first completed diamond at oneedge and continue to the unfinished half or full opening at theother edge.3.1.3 knucklinga term used to describe the type of selvageobtained by interlocking adjacent pairs of wire ends and thenbending the wire ends back into a

8、 loop. The loop shall beclosed or nearly closed to a measurement less than the diameterof the wire.3.1.4 twistinga term used to describe the type of selvageobtained by twisting adjacent pairs of wire ends together in aclose helix of 112 machine turns, which is equivalent to threefull twists, and cut

9、ting the wire ends at an angle. The wire endsbeyond the twist shall be at least14 in. 6.4 mm long. Thistype of selvage is not used on fabric with a mesh size of lessthan 2 in. 50.8 mm.4.

Weave6.1 The wire shall be woven

16、 throughout in the form ofapproximately uniform square mesh, having parallel sides andhorizontal and vertical diagonals of approximately uniformdimensions. The top and bottom of the fabric shall be knuckledor twisted as specified in Section 10.6.2 Typical diamond count for each standard height issho

17、wn in Table 1. Other diamond counts are permissibleprovided that they are consistent within a lot. The purchaserhas the option to specify the diamond count (4.1.5).7. Size of Mesh7.1 The size of mesh shall be as indicated in Table 2.7.2 The permissible variation from the specified size ofmesh shall

18、be 618 in. 63.2 mm for all mesh sizes except 1in., and 6116 in. 61.6 mm for 1 in. mesh size.7.3 The size of mesh shall be determined by measuring theminimum clear distance between the wires forming the parallelsides of the mesh and determined as the average of tworeadings taken at right angles to ea

19、ch other.8. Size of Wire8.1 Chain-link fabric shall be fabricated from wire diam-eters as listed in Specification A 817, with a permissiblevariation from the specified diameter of the coated wire of60.005 in. 60.13 mm.9. Height of Fabric9.1 Chain-link fabric shall be furnished in the standardheights

20、 shown in Table 2. The height of fabric shall be theoverall dimension from ends of twists or knuckles. Thepermissible variation from the specified height shall be 61 in.625 mm for standard selvage.10. Selvage10.1 Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, fabricswith 2- or 218-in. 50- or 54-mm mes

21、h, in heights 60 in. 1520mm and under shall be knuckled at both selvages. Fabric 72in. 1830 mm high and over shall be knuckled at one selvageand twisted at the other.10.2 The selvages of fabrics with meshes of less than 2 in.50 mm shall be knuckled.NOTE 2Caution: Twisted selvages for fence fabric un

22、der 72 in. 1830mm in height are not recommended because of consumer safety consid-erations.11. Weight of Coating11.1 The weight of Zn-5A1-MM alloy coating on the fabricmay be ordered in two coating weight classes as follows, inaccordance with Specification A 817.11.1.1 Class 1The weight of Zn-5A1-MM

23、 alloy coatingshall not be less than 0.6 oz/ft2183 g/m2 of uncoated wiresurface.11.1.2 Class 2The weight of Zn-5A1-MM alloy coatingshall not be less than 1.0 oz/ft2305 g/m2 of uncoated wiresurface.11.2 The weight of coating shall be determined in accor-dance with Test Method A 90.12. Workmanship12.1

24、 Chain-link fence fabric shall be produced by methodsrecognized as good commercial practices.12.2 Excessive roughness, blisters, and flaking shall benoted. These and other defects, if present to any considerableextent, shall provide a basis for rejection.NOTE 3Rust formations on the cut ends of the

25、wire at the fabricselvages are inherent characteristics of this material and do not warrantrejection of the fabric.13. Standard Length of Rolls13.1 The standard length of roll shall be 50 ft 15.24 m 61 % except as otherwise agreed upon at the time of purchase.13.2 The length of roll shall be determi

26、ned by unrolling aroll of fabric on a flat surface and exerting tension byappropriate means to remove all slack. The tension appliedshall not reduce the actual height of the fabric by more than116in./ft 5.3 mm/m of height or by more than12 in. 12.7 mm,whichever is less.TABLE 1 Typical Diamond CountA
