Factory Wholesale Durable Welded Steel Wire Mesh for Concrete Reinforcement and Fencing

Manufacturing Process

• Welding: Low-carbon or stainless steel wires are welded together in a grid pattern using electric resistance welding.

• Galvanization: The welded mesh is coated with zinc, either through hot-dip galvanizing (immersed in molten zinc) or electro-galvanizing (electrolytic process). Hot-dip galvanizing provides better corrosion resistance.

3. Key Features

✔ High Strength – Rigid welded structure withstands heavy loads.
✔ Corrosion Resistance – Zinc coating protects against rust and weathering.
✔ Uniform Mesh Openings – Precise grid patterns for consistent performance.
✔ Easy Installation – Prefabricated panels save time and labor.
✔ Versatility – Available in various sizes, wire gauges, and coatings.

4. Common Specifications

• Wire Diameter: 0.5mm – 6mm (varies by application)

• Mesh Size: 1/2" (12.7mm), 1" (25.4mm), 2" (50.8mm), etc.

• Panel Sizes: Typically 1m × 2m, 2m × 3m, or custom sizes.

• Galvanization Types:

  • Hot-Dip Galvanized (HDG) – Thicker zinc layer (~50-100μm), long-lasting.

  • Electro-Galvanized (EG) – Thinner coating (~10-20μm), economical.

  • 5. Applications

    • Fencing & Security: Perimeter fencing, animal enclosures, gabion boxes.

    • Construction: Reinforcement in concrete (slabs, walls), plastering, partitions.

    • Agriculture: Poultry cages, trellising, garden protection.

    • Industrial: Machine guards, shelving, filtration.

    6. Advantages Over Other Meshes

    • Longer lifespan than non-galvanized wire mesh.

    • More rigid and stable than Woven Wire mesh.

    • Cost-effective compared to stainless steel mesh.

    7. Maintenance

    • Requires minimal upkeep due to zinc protection.

    • If damaged, a zinc-rich paint can be applied for touch-ups.

    Conclusion

    Galvanized Welded Wire mesh panels are a durable, economical, and flexible solution for various industrial and construction needs. Their corrosion resistance and structural integrity make them ideal for both temporary and permanent applications.
