PVC coated welded wire mesh is a type of wire mesh that has been coated with polyvinyl chloride (PVC), which is a synthetic plastic polymer. The coating provides additional protection against corrosion, weathering, and wear.
Sunshine Fencing The welded wire mesh is created by welding together individual wires to form a strong and durable grid-like structure. The PVC coating is applied to the wire mesh after(or before) it has been welded, typically through a process called extrusion coating, where the PVC is melted and forced through a die onto the wire mesh.
Specification
The PVC-coated welded wire mesh fence is a type of fencing that offers both the strength and durability of welded wire mesh and the additional protection and aesthetics provided by a polyvinyl chloride (PVC) coating. The intersections of low carbon steel wires are welded together to form a stable grid, which is then coated with PVC to prevent corrosion and rust(or coated before welding), thus extending the PVC coated welded wire fence's lifespan. The PVC coating also provides UV protection and comes in various colors to enhance the welded wire fence's appearance. Electrical insulation is an added benefit, making the PVC coated welded wire mesh safe for use in diverse environments. The welded wire mesh fencing requires low maintenance and is suitable for multiple applications such as agricultural, residential, commercial, and industrial settings. Its cost-effectiveness, combined with its robust features, makes the PVC coated welded wire mesh fence a popular choice where weather resistance and longevity are desired.
The 1/4 inch welded wire mesh means the mesh size of the PVC coated welded wire mesh is:6mm × 6mm.
