APPLICATION

Product applications/uses include screens, partitions, facades on parking garages and buildings, cabinet inserts, enclosures, and more. We invite you to browse Wire Mesh applications in our Gallery.

MESH TYPE

Choose from a wide variety of Square, Rectangular, Round mesh holes and Weaving, Welding, Punching types.

MESH SIZE

In addition to selecting an opening size, many Wire Mesh items also have a mesh size which is determined by measuring the number of openings per lineal inch from the center of one wire to the center of an adjacent wire. If perforating or expanding metal, please advise the holes size and shapes.

OPENING SIZE

Select the opening size of the Wire Mesh. Opening size is the clear space between wires and is measured from the inside of one wire to the inside of an adjacent wire. For rectangular opening items, a width and length opening measurement is required.

WIRE DIAMETER / WIRE GAUGE

Choose the Wire Mesh diameter thickness (in inches) or wire gauge. We provide more information on wire diameter and wire gauge equivalents in the link provided in the Charts section on the Wire Mesh resources landing page.

PERCENT OPEN AREA

Identify the percentage of open area desired in the Wire Mesh or Perforated Metal.

Select the opening size of the Wire Mesh. Opening size is the clear space between wires and is measured from the inside of one wire to the inside of an adjacent wire. For rectangular opening items, a width and length opening measurement is required.

SURFACE FINISHING/ TREATMENT

Select the primary material type including Aluminum, Bronze, Carbon Steel, Copper, Galvanized Steel or Stainless Steel, taking into consideration climate or environmental realities. Inventory is typically &#;mill finish&#; unless otherwise specified. Some items in inventory have a vinyl coating or can be powder coated. We provide more information on Primary Material Types and Product Finishes in the links provided in the Overview section on the Wire Mesh Resources landing page.

PRODUCT SIZE, FORM & QUANTITY

Determine the number of sheets and/or coils including cut-to-size pieces and stub preferences if applicable.

ACCESSORIES

Determine if Wire Mesh Accessories such as Angle, Flat Bar, or U-Edging framing solutions are required for your application.

APPLICATION

Product applications/uses include screens, partitions, facades on parking garages and buildings, cabinet inserts, enclosures, and more. We invite you to browse Wire Mesh applications in our Gallery.

How to Choose the Right Wire Mesh for Your Project

Structural strength is a critical factor in construction. If the structure is not strong enough, it can lead to accidents, especially in large-scale projects. Steel reinforcement is essential for achieving maximum safety. Wire mesh is another key factor in achieving structural strength. Steel reinforcement serves several important purposes in construction such as withstanding tensile forces, reduces surface cracking, reduces overall structural load, enhances concrete strength.

Advantages of Steel Wire Mesh

&#; Strong and Durable: Produced with an automated system, ensuring consistent spacing of wire mesh throughout the entire sheet. All welding points are precise, resulting in high-quality work without any warping or bending. It can withstand twice the tensile strength of hand-tied steel bars, resulting in a stronger structure.

&#; Cost-saving: Wire mesh is produced in square shapes, eliminating the need for manual steel tying, so reducing labor costs. The higher tensile strength of wire mesh allows for less steel to be used, further reducing costs.

&#; Increased Work Efficiency: Wire mesh is stored in rolls, allowing for quick installation on-site. Concrete can be poured immediately after laying the wire mesh, eliminating the time required for cutting and tying steel bars. Reduces the number of work steps, leading to faster construction times.

Types of wire mesh and their suitable applications

The selection of wire mesh primarily depends on the diameter of the steel bars, which is measured in millimeters. The diameter of the steel bars is directly related to the load-bearing capacity. The thicker the steel bars, the more weight they can support. Therefore, wire mesh can be classified according to its size and application as follows:

&#; 3-5 mm Steel Mesh: Commonly used for general floor slabs in houses, residential buildings, garages, parking lots, and factories.

&#; 6 mm Steel Mesh: Used for general road construction, roads designed for cars only, and secondary roads.

&#; 9 mm Steel Mesh: Used for applications requiring high strength and load-bearing capacity, such as roads with frequent truck traffic, expressways, airports, and warehouses.

Things to know before buying wire mesh

After understanding the properties of steel mesh and its suitable applications, the next step is to choose the right steel mesh for your project. Here are some things you need to know before making a purchase:

&#; Determine the total area of your project: This will help you order the correct amount of wire mesh. Wire mesh comes in various lengths, so measuring the area beforehand will make the process faster and more convenient.

&#; Choose the appropriate wire steel size: As mentioned earlier, wire mesh comes in different sizes, each with its own application. You must select the size that matches your project's requirements. This selection is also crucial for safety reasons, so be sure to consider it carefully before making a purchase.

&#; Choose wire mesh that meets the Thai Industrial Standards (TIS). The TIS has established standards to control the quality of steel mesh. The relevant standards are: TIS 747-: for cold-drawn steel wire reinforcement for concrete, TIS 943-: for cold-drawn ribbed steel wire reinforcement for concrete, TIS 737-: for welded steel wire mesh reinforcement for concrete.

          By following these guidelines, you can ensure that you are purchasing high-quality wire mesh that will meet the needs of your project.
