Galvanised Pipe — Buying Guide

Galvanised steel pipe is one of the most widely used structural components in chain wire fencing and gate construction across Australia. The hot dip galvanising process coats the steel in a thick layer of zinc, providing excellent corrosion resistance for outdoor and coastal environments — making it the ideal choice for fencing applications across the Sunshine Coast, Brisbane, and South East Queensland.

Common Uses for Galvanised Pipe in Fencing

  • Fence posts: Vertical uprights driven or concreted into the ground to carry chain wire mesh panels
  • Top rails: Horizontal pipe running along the top of chain wire fencing to add rigidity and support the mesh
  • Gate frames: Constructing farm gates, security gates, and commercial entry gates
  • Intermediate rails: Mid-height horizontal rails used in tall or high-security chain wire installations
  • Handrailing and barriers: Structural tubing for safety barriers, handrails, and crowd control systems

Pipe Sizes and Wall Thickness

Galvanised pipe for fencing is available in a range of outside diameters — commonly 25mm, 32mm, 38mm, 42mm, and 48mm OD — with varying wall thicknesses depending on the structural load requirements. Heavier-wall pipe is recommended for gate frames and high-traffic access points. Lighter-wall pipe suits standard line post and top rail applications in residential and light commercial fencing.

Galvanised vs Black Powder Coated Pipe

Galvanised pipe has a silver-zinc finish and is the most cost-effective option for rural and commercial fencing. Black powder coated pipe provides a premium aesthetic finish for urban, residential, and architectural fencing applications where appearance is a priority. Both options are available in our chain wire fencing range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What diameter pipe do I need for chain wire fence posts?
For standard residential and light commercial chain wire fencing, 42mm or 48mm OD pipe is most commonly used for fence posts. Top rails typically use 32mm or 38mm OD pipe. For heavier-duty or taller fencing, consult with our team for the correct specification.
