CBT-60 Intruder Deterrent For Perimeter Security Razor Wire

CBT-60 Intruder Deterrent for Perimeter Security Razor Wire

Features of razor wire

• Modern and economical way as perimeter barriers against illegal invasion to restricted areas.
• Attractive design in harmony with natural beauty.
• Fabricated from hot-dipped galvanized steel or stainless steel, high resistance to corrosion.
• Sharp blade with multiple profiles has piercing and gripping action, which performs psychological deterrent to intruders.
• Abrasion resistance for long service life.
• Enclosed high tensile core wire makes it difficult to cut with standard tools.
• Provides much better security compared with traditional barbed wire.
• Easy installation and low maintenance.

Description of Razor Wire

Razor wire, always referred to as barbed tape, is a modern version and great alternative to traditional barbed wire, which is designed to prevent unauthorized intrusion along perimeter barriers. It is fabricated from high tensile wire onto which a multitude of razor-sharp barbs are formed at close and uniform intervals. It's sharp barbs act as both visual and psychological deterrent, making it ideal for industries such as commercial, industrial, residential and governmental areas.

CBT 60 / Concertina H type

The CBT 60 / Concertina H type model, is defined by its 60 mm wide blade with 8 points creating a hook effect, thus it belongs to the group of the most aggressive models of concertinas, with a space between blades of 100 mm . Concertina H type contains extra wire reinforcement, this reinforcement located on both sides of the wire and with a height of 2 mm, provides the concertina with extra reinforcement to increase its resistance.

The diameter of this type of concertina is 450 mm - 1500 mm , although we have different measures with respect to other models of concertina, special measures such as 630, 640 or 955 mm.

The concertina 22 made ​​of stainless steel or galvanized wire high strength 1400-1600 MPa.

• Stainless Steel EN 1.4016 - AISI 430
• Stainless Steel EN 1.4301 - AISI 304
• Stainless Steel EN 1.4401 - AISI 316
• Galvanized Steel Z40 - Z275
• Wire Strength: 1400 - 1600 MPa
• No. loops: 55 ± 1

The sectors requiring this type of concertinas are places with medium-high levels of security, such as borders, power plants or refineries and many others.

• Lugares con requerimiento de media-alta seguridad:
• Fronteras
• Refinerías
• Aeropuertos
• Centrales eléctricas
• Embalses
• Minas

Choosing your Razor wire

Typically, the bigger the diameter the more of an obstacle/deterrent the Razor wire is. 300mm and 450mm diameter is the smaller size we recommend for domestic installations. This size is an adequate deterrent and also the easiest to fit, as standard support brackets will be suitable for this diameter and weight of the razor wire. 730mm & 900mm diameter will require specially made brackets for an installation.

If fitting to the ground then we recommend a size that can’t be vaulted over, then the suggested options would be to install a single run of 900mm diameter Razor wire or alternatively, stack smaller diameter Razor wire on top of each other either vertically or in a pyramid fashion.

Points to note when selecting Razor Wire

• Blade thickness

0.5mm is the industry standard, anything less is likely to bend easily.

• The core wire diameter:

2.5mm is the industry standard, anything less has proportionately less tensile and inherent strength.

• The number of loops per coil

This determines the amount of Razor wire on the coil and therefore the profile density when deployed, an important point when comparing prices. All our coils have 55 loops per coil, this means the coils can be extended easily up to 10m whilst maintaining a dense profile of Razor wire.

• Stainless Steel or Galvanized?

The environment the product is being deployed in may determine whether Stainless Steel or Galvanised is the best option. Stainless Steel is more expensive, but offers greater durability especially in salt air environments. Over time Stainless Steel will outlast Galvanised, therefore making it the best long term option. However, Galvanised is more than adequate for most regions and applications. We would always suggest you check the level of zinc coating when selecting Razorwire, all our Galvanised products are 200g/m2, if the supplier cant provide the information, you may only be getting a product with 60g/m2 which will deteriorate and rust much more quickly.

• Blade type

Smaller blades such as BTO10 (10mm) are quite small and therefore less of a deterrent. Larger blade profiles such as CBT65 (65mm) are much more effective & therefore reflected in the price.
