Stainless Steel Welded Wire Mesh

Known for its strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, this mesh is ideal for diverse applications including construction, security fencing, and architectural uses. It is available in various mesh sizes, wire diameters, and panel dimensions, customizable to specific requirements. The mesh is not only robust but also versatile, commonly used in machine guards, animal enclosures, support structures, and ventilation grilles.

Stainless steel welded wire mesh is renowned for its durability and inherent resistance to environmental challenges. This mesh, crafted from stainless steel, does not require additional coatings such as galvanizing or PVC to prolong its life. It is naturally resistant to rust, corrosion, and harsh chemicals, making it ideal for demanding settings. Specifically, Type 316 stainless steel mesh is optimal for saltwater environments due to its enhanced corrosion resistance compared to Type 304, ensuring reliability in marine applications and other areas with significant exposure to corrosive elements.

Specification

Stainless steel welded wire mesh is a versatile and durable material, suitable for a range of applications due to its resistance to rust and corrosion. Below is a detailed overview of the common specifications for this product, including mesh sizes and wire diameters.

Materials Used in Stainless Steel Welded Wire Mesh
Stainless steel welded wire mesh is made from several grades of stainless steel, each chosen for specific properties and applications:

• 302 Stainless Steel: Known for its toughness and better corrosion resistance, suitable for general applications.

• 304 Stainless Steel: One of the most common grades, offering excellent corrosion resistance and durability, ideal for a wide range of environments including industrial and food processing.

• 304L Stainless Steel: A variant of 304, it has lower carbon content which improves weldability and decreases the risk of corrosion after welding, making it ideal for welded structures.

• 316 Stainless Steel: Offers superior corrosion resistance, perfect for marine and highly corrosive environments due to its molybdenum content.

• 316L Stainless Steel: Similar to 316 but with lower carbon content to enhance corrosion resistance around welded areas, suitable for rigorous environments where welding is necessary.
