PVC coated razor wire is a high-security barrier designed to upgrade perimeter protection for military bases, borders, airports, prisons, industrial facilities, and residential compounds. It features a high-tensile galvanized steel core wrapped with a durable PVC coating, providing outstanding corrosion resistance and extended service life in harsh, coastal, or humid environments.
This product can be installed with chain link fence, welded mesh fence, defensive barriers, or mounted directly on walls and gates, making it one of the most widely used modern security materials.
What is PVC Coated Razor Wire?
PVC coated razor wire combines sharp steel blades with a coated steel wire core to form a long-lasting security barrier. The PVC layer protects the metal from water, chemicals, and UV exposure, significantly improving its lifespan compared with standard galvanized razor wire. Available in green, black, grey, olive, and custom colors to match environment or camouflage use.
