Galvanized wire mesh is a general purpose metal net with a rust resisting zinc coating protection by electro galvanizing or hot dip galvanizing process. Galvanized meshes offer better corrosion resistance than plain steel mesh products. All galvanized meshes can be double protected with galvanizing and powder coating finishes.
Galvanized meshes can be divided into following according to processing:
Galvanized mesh, woven
Galvanized wire mesh, twist woven
Galvanized wire mesh, knit woven
Galvanized mesh, welded
Galvanized mesh, chain linked woven
We also supply metal mesh products processed not from wire, but from steel sheets:
Expanded mesh, diamond or decorative hole
Perforated steel mesh, round hole and others
Galvanized wire mesh cloth is divided into following types according to hole patterns:
Square wire mesh ( woven or welded);
Hexgonal hole mesh;
Diamond hole wire mesh;
Rectangular mesh ( woven or welded);
Decorative mesh.
Wire mesh is divided into following types according to Wire Forms:
Crimped screen ( woven of pre crimped wire)
Flat wire knitted mesh ( made of flat wire)
Wire mesh ( made of common round wire )
Wedge wire ( of v profile wire)
Galvanized steel wire mesh is the most universal meshs, finding extensive uses:
Industrial screen filter ( Mining screen, vibrating screen, quarry screen, sifting screen);
Security mesh ( Security grill, fencing and guarding uses);
Storage solutions ( Decking, rack shelves, partitions, cages lockers, gridwall panels);
Poultry breeding ( Chicken mesh, rabbit wire, poultry netting);
Fire protection system guarding mesh;
Construction ( Concrete reinforcing steel mesh products, truss mesh, 3D wall panel, plaster mesh, stucco mesh and lathing, corner beads);
Filtering ( Mist eliminator, demister );
Slope protection solutions ( Rockfall protection netting and drape system for railway and bridge constructions);
Fabricating ( Making of mesh basket, wire scourers, fishing traps, cages, fan guards, other industrial products);
Other fields.
Galvanizing Types according to Finishes:
GI wire mesh, electro galv.;
Gi wire mesh, zinc plate hot dipped galvanised;
Galvanised mesh, powder coated galv;
Zinc+ Al / Galfan galvanized;
Anodised steel finish.
Wire mesh hardware clothes can be galvanized before weaving / welding or after:
Welded mesh, Galvanized Before Weld ( GBW), Galvanized After Weld ( GAW)
Woven mesh, Galvanized Before Weave GBW, Galvanized After Weave GAW)
Galvanized meshes can be Electro Galvanized, Hot Dipped Galvanized, Galfan (Zinc-Aluminum) Galvanized, Galv. + Powder Coated.
Galvanized Mesh Welded ( Galvanized Before Welded ) is made with pre-galvanized wire welded into mesh rolls or panels.
Welded Mesh
GAW (Galvanized After Welded) is manufactured with carbon steel or mild steel wire welding into grid structure, then the whole mesh panel is hot dip galvanized through a bath of molten zinc.
Galvanized Mesh, Galvanized Before Woven, refers to wire mesh woven of pre-galvanized wire. Galvanized mesh, Galvanized After Woven, refers to woven wire mesh ( plain weave, chain link, twisted or knitted) manufactured with plain steel or carbon steel wire, then the mesh rolls or panels are thoroughly galvanized through hot dipped zinc coating.
Disadvantage and Advantage:
GBW welded wire mesh or woven wire mesh cost less compared with GAW types.
GWB welded mesh or woven mesh has one disadvantage: During the welding or weaving process of the GBW, the galvanizing at the weld or weaving spots, where the wires intersect, may get off. This leaves places in the mesh that have lost the galvanizing protection against rust and corrosion.
Welded mesh or Woven Mesh Galvanized After (GAW) is stronger and durable. The steel wire mesh rolls / panels, including the welded or woven spots, are thoroughly coated with zinc plating against rust and corrosion.
Galvanized wire mesh can be further protected by powder coating, known as Powder Coated Wire Mesh or PVC coated mesh. Pvc coated wire mesh is made of mild steel and galvanized steel wire, with pvc or vinyl powder corrosion resisting coating layer. Powder coated mesh is available in rolls and panels, widely used as fencing for garden fencing, aviary mesh as well as animals enclosures.
PVC coated mesh can be made in a variety of holes, mainly:
Square mesh;
Rectangular mesh;
Hexagonal mesh.
Wire mesh galv. and powder coated is mainly used in following applications:
Metal mesh decking, shelf and racking
Animal cages
Dog kennel
Aviary mesh
Poultry netting ( chicken, rabbit, etc)
Yard and garden fencing
Security screen
Zoo mesh.

Choosing Mesh Materials
Galvanized wire mesh welded or woven each has its own character and applications, but they find common applications sometimes, in making partitions, gopher fencing, poultry fencing, gabions mesh material.
Welded wire mesh is mostly used in mesh fabricating, fencing and storage solutions.
Woven wire mesh made of round wire is used in general screening and guarding.
Galvanized wire cloth woven with pre crimped steel wire enjoys added strength and rigidity, suitable to be used as mining screen, machine shielding guards.
Welded mesh and hexagonal woven mesh are commonly used as fences, stucco netting, made into gabions or baskets for soil erosion protection.
Stucco netting, also known as Stucco Mesh, is a kind of galvanized mesh supplied in square and hexagonal patterns. Wires usually precrimped to achieve good plastering purpose. Stucco mesh is applied over lath, fabricated from galvanized woven wire fabric or galvanized welded wire fabric. These mesh materials allow the stucco to go into the openings and adhere well to become stronger.

Gabions and gabion mattresses are wire fabric containers, uniformly partitioned, of variable size, interconnected with other similar containers and filled with stone at the site of use, to form flexible, permeable, monolithic structures such as retaining walls, sea walls, channel linings, revetments and weirs for earth retention. Popularly made of hexagonal mesh and welded mesh.
Specify the product description:
Twisted woven wire mesh is mostly in a hexagon hole, also called Hexagonal mesh. But when a Hex mesh is mentioned, it refers not necessarily twist woven hexagonal nets, it may be Expanded metal with hexagonal hole, or perforated metal with hexagonal opening.
Wire mesh woven or welded in square hole is also called Square Wire Mesh. Hence when a square mesh is mentioned, it can be welded mesh or woven wire cloth.
Both expanded mesh and chain link mesh can be made diamond holes. Heavy precrimped wire woven mesh can also be made with diamond holes. Hence when a diamond mesh is mentioned, it can be either expanded mesh, or chain link wire mesh or woven wire.
Sometimes galv. wire mesh is called by the application, for example, welded mesh is called Poultry Net when used for poultry feeding, hexagonal netting is referred as Chicken wire when it is used for chicken coops or fencing uses.
