ABSTRACT:
Chain link material for use in fences and other various applications are formed with flattened end portions so as to improve the handling and safety characteristics thereof. The flattened end portions of the chain link fence are formed by trimming, bending and then securing together cut ends of the wire forming the chain link material. This trimming, bending and securing is preferably performed in end flattening assemblies held on either side of a chain link material weaving machine, which assemblies are moveable into and out of contact with the cut ends of the wires in the chain link material so as to trim, bend and then secure the bent ends together by twisting, welding or clipping the same together.
