BTO-11 BTO-10 Concertina Razor Wire Barbed Tape Concertina Coils
Products Introduction:
Razor Wire is a kind of modern security fencing materials fabricated with razor-sharp steel blade and high-tensile wire. The razor wire can be installed to achieve the result of frightening and stopping to the aggressive perimeter intruders, with piecing and cutting razor blades mounted at the top of the wall, also the special designs making climbing and touching extremely difficult. The wire and strip are galvanized to prevent corrosion.
BTC coils or Barbed Tape Concertina coils are the most widely recognized coils. These coils are the three-dimensional razor coils most people have seen on high security fences around the world.
The most common barbed type is BTO-11(or BTO-10), BTO-22, BTO-30, CBT-60, CBT-65.
BTO-11 is the smallest and least aggressive of all models, with a 11mm blade length and space between blades of 26 mm without extra reinforcement wire but still with great power detention.
BTO-11
Blade thickness | Core Wire | Blade Length | Blade Width | Blade Spacing |
0.45-0.5mm | 2.3-2.5mm | 10-11mm | 13mm | 25-26mm |
For the Barbed Tape Concertina coils, the most common coil diameters is from 450mm to 1500mm. And the coils is clipped by the clips.
Coil Diameter(mm) | No. of clips | Linear Meter |
450 | 3 | 8-11 |
500 | 3 | 9-12 |
630 | 3 | 9-12 |
700 | 3-5 | 9-12 |
730 | 3-5 | 9-12 |
800 | 3-5 | 9-12 |
950 | 5 | 11-14 |
1000 | 5 | 11-14 |
1250 | 7 | 12-15 |
1500 | 9 | 12-15 |
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
0.5mm is the industry standard, anything less is likely to bend easily.
2.5mm is the industry standard, anything less has proportionately less tensile and inherent strength.
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.
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.
