Abstract
A slat for insertion in receiving channels of the wire mesh fencing fabric of a chain link fence has its longitudinal margins provided with respective fringes that are relatively thin and flexible for hugging the knuckles of the fencing fabric. The fringes are preferably a medium or low density polyethylene plastic or the like, and are preferably made up of transversely extending, flexible, but substantially position-maintaining strands, though they could be of transversely unbroken fin formation.
