Therma-Fused Polyolefin is the premier colored chain-link fence in the industry. This protective coating provides superior durability, coating adhesion and UV resistance to other color chain-link offerings. The polyolefin powder used by Iron World™ is pure, containing no fillers, and is specifically formulated to coat galvanized wire, pipe and tubing. If you want your chain-link system to last the test of time while providing an appearance that blends in with the environment, Therma-Fused polyolefin is the only choice.


Designed to be a decorative and PROTECTIVE COATING by providing a impervious barrier that does not let moisture through Superior adhesion for extended durability that reduces the chance of damage during product handling and installation Exceptional performance in highly corrosive environments Resistant to ultra violet light preventing fading Polyolefin coating outperforms other coated chain-link products in changing weather conditions by reducing vulnerability to cracking and chipping• Meets ASTM requirements No primer needed, making it more environmentally friendly

Advantages of Therma-Fused Polyolefin vs Extruded and Bonded Extruded wire usually has inconsistent coating thickness due to the difficulty in trying to keep the wire centered PVC pellets used for the extrusion process are not of the same quality as the PVC used for the fused coating, containing more fillers Much of the extruded product in the market does not meet ASTM specifications as the core wire is undersized and does not contain the proper zinc coating Class 1 extruded wire, if cut, will let moisture through resulting in rust Does not have the durability of therma fused polyolefin Class 2a bonded product, at many times, does not comply with the adhesion test especially in cold and warm climates.

Therma-Fused Polyolefin Wire vs Thermally Fused PVC Polyolefin provides a protective coating that is an impervious barrier that does not let moisture through. PVC coatings are considered to be decorative in nature. Polyolefin has tremendous adhesion properties PVC requires the use of a primer allowing for a greater possibility of adhesion failure. PVC powder may contain fillers. The polyolefin powder used by Iron World™ is pure, containing no fillers, and is specially formulated to coat galvanized wire. The polyolefin formulation is designed to handle any out gassing from the zinc coating as a result of heating the wire during the coating process.
