Explore Our Diverse Range of Barbed Wire Solutions

Mutual Metal offers a variety of high-quality barbed wire for security and fencing. Our strong, durable products include 2-point, 4-point, barbless, high-tensile, and low-carbon options, all designed to secure farmland, construction sites, and homes. With some of the sharpest barbs available, our wire effectively deters animals. We use a Class I coating that meets ASTM A-121 standards for durability.

Stainless Barbed Wire
Stainless steel barbed wire is an economical fencing material consisting of twisted wires with sharp metal barbs spaced at regular intervals, renowned for its exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and effectiveness in deterring intrusions across applications like agriculture, security perimeters, and high-risk facilities.
PVC-Coated Barbed Wire
PVC-coated barbed wire provides enhanced protection against rust and weathering, ensuring long-lasting performance. It is available in a range of colors to blend seamlessly with the environment. Ideal for garden security.
Galvanized Barbed Wire
Galvanized barbed wire offers excellent corrosion resistance, making it ideal for outdoor applications. It is available in various gauges and barb spacing to suit your specific requirements. Perfect for agricultural fencing.

The different gauges of a wire determine how strong the wire is, and the breaking strength is the amount of weight it takes to break the wire. The following wires are described in order of how quickly they break with a tensile tester.

9 Gauge Low Carbon Wire

stretches 13% and breaks at 1,200 lbs, making it ideal for corralling cattle, hogs, and other large animals. 

12.5 Gauge Low Carbon Wire

or “hog wire,” is used in field fences with one 13% stretching strand breaking at 500 lbs, while barbed wire has two strands breaking at 1,000 lbs.

12.5 Gauge High Tensile Wire

used in deer, cattle, hog, sheep, and goat fences, stretches 1.5-2% and breaks at 1500-1600 lbs., making it three times stronger than low carbon wire. Its stiffness makes it unsuitable for barbed wire.

14 Gauge High Tensile Wire

stretches only 1.5-2% and breaks at 800 lbs, providing a 1,600 lb breaking strength in barbed wire. It is available in 2- and 4-point barbed wire and field fence.

15 Gauge High Tensile Wire

has a high carbon content, causing it to stretch only 1.5-2%. It breaks at about 550 lbs, allowing barbed wire to withstand up to 1,100 lbs.

High Tensile Barbed Wire

High-Tensile Barbed Wire is a great fencing alternative, provides superior strength, durability, and security for your fencing needs, offering reliable perimeter protection, and making it an ideal choice for agricultural, residential, and commercial applications. The high-tensile wire allows for a light, easy-to-handle product, reducing fence sagging. High-tensile barbed wire installation requires fewer posts because of the ability to space posts at greater intervals and eliminates the need for pre-stretching during installation.

Each roll allows for consistent unwinding with zero splices, a non-collapsible reel, and an easy handle.
