stainless steel welded wire mesh

The following are some examples of popular uses for T 304 SS and T 316 SS welded wire mesh.

 

Reinforcing Steel Mesh

Welded stainless steel mesh used as reinforcing steel is easy to handle, corrosion resistant, fire and heat resistant, recyclable, and has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than ordinary steel. It is also cost effective because it does not require replacement.

 

Vertical Gardens

Also known as "green walls", these are a great garden solution for suburban homes with limited outdoor entertaining space, as they take up far less space than traditional "horizontal" gardens or potted plants. Plants grow on vertical wire mesh, stainless steel is critical for corrosion resistance, and welded construction is important for strength as plants grow and become heavier. They are also popular with architects for larger projects.

 

Birdhouses

Using welded stainless steel mesh in the construction of bird houses is the only way to prevent potentially fatal zinc poisoning in birds, which occurs when they chew on galvanized wire mesh.

 

What size wire and mesh should you use for animal enclosures?

▷ Pet rabbits and small birds - 12.7 mm diameter 1.20 mm wire mesh

▷ Large rodents and parakeets - 12.7 mm diameter square mesh with 1.6 mm wire

▷ for cats and raptors - 25.4 mm square mesh with 1.6 mm diameter

▷ For large dog enclosures and cages, a 50 mm square mesh made of 3 mm diameter wire.

▷ Pest and rodent protection - 6.35 mm square mesh made of 0.8 mm diameter wire is recommended.

▷ Fox-proof fencing - When used as fox-proof fencing around chicken farms, the fence needs to be at least 1.8 m high and extend at least 0.5 m below ground level. 50.8 mm square mesh made of 2 mm diameter wire is recommended.

 

● Please find below charts that illustrate the standard chemical composition of T 304 stainless steel and T 316 stainless steel.

 

T 316 stainless steel is sometimes referred to as marine grade because of its higher corrosion resistance, especially in salt water environments.
