Galvanized Steel Wire Mesh 0.3mm-0.9mm Wire Gauge
Galvanized is not a metal or alloy; it is a process in which a
protective zinc coating is applied to steel to prevent rusting. In
the wire mesh industry, however, it is often treated as a separate
category because of its wide spread use in all types of
applications.
Some of the more popular uses and applications of galvanized wire
mesh are listed below:
Fencing, caging & enclosures
Farm, garden & agricultural use
Window & safety guards
Archeological use
Building & construction projects
Infill panels
High security applications
Landscaping & gabions
Wall & stone retention
Greenhouse use
Particle separation
General industrial use
Galvanizing can occur either before or after wire mesh is
manufactured – both in woven form or welded form. Galvanized before
woven wire mesh or galvanized before welded wire mesh indicates the
individual wires, themselves, used to manufacture the mesh have
been galvanized before the mesh is woven or welded. Depending on
the mesh (or opening size) and diameter wire, this is usually the
less expensive option, especially if custom manufacturing is
required.
Galvanized after woven and galvanized after welded wire mesh is
exactly as it sounds. The material is manufactured, normally in
carbon or plain steel, and is often placed in a galvanizing tank,
thereby producing a galvanized after woven or welded specification.
Generally speaking, this option is more expensive, depending on
availability and other variables, but does offer a higher level of
corrosion resistance. This added level of corrosion resistance is
most noticeable at the joint or intersection of galvanized after
welded wire mesh specification.
One of the main benefits of a galvanized wire mesh, and
particularly of a galvanized welded specification, is that it tends
to offer a wide variety of opening sizes and diameter wires. For
instance, mesh opening sizes, such as 4” x 4”, 2” x 2”, 1” x 1” and
½” x ½”, tend to be readily available from stock in a handful of
popularly requested diameter wires.
Due to its attractive price point and its corrosion resistance,
galvanized wire mesh is very popular among industrial users of wire
mesh. Usually, galvanized wire mesh is specified in applications
where relatively large opening sizes are needed. Keep in mind that
galvanizing a relatively fine mesh, after it is woven, is likely to
clog the openings rendering it unusable in numerous applications.
It is for this reason that, usually, a 10 x 10 mesh and finer will
be manufactured as a galvanized before woven item.
