Questions & Answers for Hog panels RFQ-APHIS-WS-18-900094 The following are questions that have been received to date 03/16/2018.
All questions will be posted with answers accordingly.
Q. Need more detailed diagram & photos of the type of fencing that is needed.
A. We do not have a more detailed diagram. Short of paying for a set of engineered drawings, we have always obtained the panels we need based on the included diagram (16 foot x 5 foot livestock panel) I did include some photos of the last panels we had manufactured as a reference. (Photos 1, 2, and 3)
Q. There are many sizes to #6 wire depending on the manufacturer can you specify the diameter you require?
A. #6 gauge steel wire: .192” +/- .003”. I have also included a picture and diameter for reference. (photos 4 and 5).
Q. The most cost effective way to make this would be to use basic steel for welding and then hot dip galvanize. If we use galvanized wire, the welding will remove the zinc at the burn points and be susceptible to rust. Is it acceptable to use basic steel and galvanize post welding?
A. The livestock panels we have had manufactured before were welded, then galvanized, so that there is no exposed new bare welds that need to be re-galvanized. (See photo 6).
