Welded Wire Mesh

☼ Welded Wire Mesh Description

Welded wire mesh, known as hardware cloth, is a metal mesh made by welding horizontal and vertical wires together at their intersections. There are various types of welded wire mesh such as stainless steel welded wire mesh, galvanised welded wire mesh and PVC coated welded wire mesh, which are corrosion resistant, durable and low cost and are widely used for captive animals, gardening, construction, and fence reinforcement.

☼ Welded Wire Mesh Features

1. 1. Good corrosion resistance: the raw material of welded wire mesh is made of high-strength galvanized wire, PVC-coated iron wire and stainless steel wire, which has high tensile strength and good corrosion resistance and can be used for a long time without rusting.

2. 2. Easy to install: When installing the welded wire mesh, it is only necessary to fix the mesh on the posts or wooden stakes, the mesh can be cut at will and the welded joints will not open.

3. 3. Cost-effective: Compared to other materials used for fencing and applications, welded wire mesh is inexpensive and an economical choice.

4. 4. Good ventilation: Welded wire mesh has good air circulation and good lighting, making it ideal for poultry enclosures and machine protection, etc.

5. 5. Wide range of uses: Welded wire mesh can be used as chicken cages, poultry confinement, reinforced fences, as gardening fences, machine protection covers, wall construction reinforcement, window sill protection, etc.

☼ Technical Parameters of Welded Wire Mesh / hardware cloth

Technical Note of Hardware cloth (Welded wire mesh):

• 1. Standard roll length : 30 m, standard roll width : 0.5 m - 2.5 m.

• 2. Packing: Hardware Cloth wrapped in moisture-proof paper and plastic film and then either placed in a cardboard box or can be packed in a way specified by the customer.

• 3. Wire diameter, mesh opening, roll length, roll width and packaging of welded wire mesh are all available on request.

☼ Welded Wire Mesh Details and Types

☼ Types of Welded Wire Mesh

1. 1. Welded wire mesh according to the material can be classified as galvanized welded wire mesh, PVC coated welded wire mesh, stainless steel welded wire mesh, etc.




• • Galvanised Welded Wire Mesh: This type of hardware cloth mesh is coated with a layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. Galvanised welded wire mesh can be classified as galvanised after welding ( GAW ) or galvanised before welding ( GBW ), and galvanised after welding ( GAW ) for better corrosion resistance.

  
  

  

  
  

• • PVC coated welded wire mesh: This type of hardware cloth mesh is usually welded with galvanised wire and then coated with a layer of PVC to provide additional protection against rust and corrosion. A variety of colours are available to suit different environments.

  
  






• • Stainless steel welded wire mesh: This type of hardware cloth mesh is made from stainless steel wire, which is highly resistant to rust and corrosion and is usually made of 304, 316 stainless steel to ensure that it will never rust.






2. 2. Welded wire mesh can be classified into square openings and rectangular openings depending on the shape of the mesh.

   
   

• • This type of hardware cloth mesh has square openings and is the most widely used type of welded wire mesh. It is commonly used for fencing, animal enclosures and construction.




• • Welded wire mesh with rectangular openings: This type of hardware cloth mesh has rectangular openings and is usually used to reinforce concrete structures, as well as for fences and animal enclosures. The common size of rectangular opening is 1"*2", 2"*2", 3"*2", 4"*2", 4"*3", 4"*4", other meshes of welded wire mesh are available on request.

  
  

  

☼ Welded Wire Mesh Production

Hua Guang Company chooses high tensile strength black wire, galvanized wire or stainless steel wire welded by automatic welding machine, and after the welding is completed, hot-dip galvanized or PVC dipping treatment. The mesh surface is flat, the mesh holes are even and the welded joints will not open.

☼ Welded Wire Mesh Application

Welded wire mesh is very widely used because of its simple structure, easy installation, easy cutting and good corrosion resistance.

• 1. Welded wire mesh (hardware cloth) can be used as a fence or to make a fence more secure.

• 2. Welded wire mesh (hardware cloth) is used on building walls, where it is fixed on the wall before plastering to prevent cracking at a later stage.

• 3. Animal control: fences or cages made of welded wire mesh (hardware cloth) can be used to control animals such as chickens, ducks, rabbits, birds etc.

• 4. Welded wire mesh (hardware cloth) is used for machine guarding and dividers in the middle of shelves, etc.
