Welded wire mesh, often referred to as welded wire fabric, is a versatile construction material consisting of low carbon steel wires welded together at each crossing point to form a strong and stable mesh structure. The welded wire fence is characterised by high tensile strength, durability and corrosion resistance, making the welded mesh fencing suitable for various applications such as structural reinforcement, fencing, security barriers and shelving. The welded fence mesh is available in a variety of finishes including galvanised,and PVC coated to meet specific requirements and provide additional protection from the elements.
Specification
The galvanized welded wire fence is a suqare or rectangular shaped grid formed by welding low carbon steel wires at their intersections, creating a strong and durable welded wire mesh fence.
How to make galvanized welded wire mesh?
Low carbon steel wires are welded together at their intersections.
The welded mesh fence is then hot-dipped in molten zinc or coated with zinc through electroplating to achieve galvanization.
Corrosion resistance: The galvanization process involves coating the welded wire mesh with a layer of zinc, which protects it from rust and corrosion. This makes the gi welded wire mesh fence ideal for outdoor use in all weather conditions.
Strength and durability: The welded construction ensures that the welded wire mesh is strong and durable, making welded wire mesh fence suitable for use in high-traffic areas or as a security barrier.
Versatility: Galvanized welded wire mesh fencing can be used for a wide range of applications, including agricultural fencing, garden fencing, industrial fencing, and more.
Customizable: The galvanized welded wire mesh can be cut to size and shaped to fit specific requirements, allowing for customization and flexibility in design.
The galvanized welded wire mesh fence is typically transported in rolls, with common roll lengths of 25 feet,50 feet,100 feet and common roll heights (widths) of 4ft,5ft and 6ft. Additionally, the size of the mesh openings is also an important component of the dimensions of galvanized welded wire mesh.
