I need of a Silt Fence
Fabrics used in the Silt Fence
I am looking for a silt fence. What materials do you make these fences out of?
Thank you for contacting us! We do sell a silt fence that can be used as temporary perimeter for controlling and preventing erosion. In general, you will want to use this silt fence when you have a relatively small drainage area and where runoff will not exceed 0.5 cfs.
The normal manufacturing of the silt fence is with a woven geotextile filter fabric. The fabrics used for this fence should be made from materials such as polypropylene, nylon, or polyester. The fabric used should have a minimum filtering efficiency of 75 to 85% and a maximum tensile strength of 20%.
