GALVANIZED WELDED WIRE MESH : HOT-DIPPED AND ELECTRO GALVANIZED OPTIONS

Galvanized Wire Mesh Types

• Hot-Dipped Galvanized Wire Mesh: This type involves dipping the wire mesh into molten zinc after it has been welded, providing a thick, protective coating that significantly enhances its resistance to rust and corrosion. Ideal for outdoor applications where the mesh is exposed to harsh weather conditions, hot-dipped galvanization ensures a long-lasting durable finish.
• Electro Galvanized Wire Mesh: Electro galvanization involves applying a zinc coating using electrical current, resulting in a thinner coat compared to hot-dipped galvanization. This process provides a smooth and uniform finish, suitable for indoor applications or less corrosive environments. The thinner zinc coating offers adequate protection while maintaining the mesh’s flexibility and ease of use.
• Galvanized Before Weld (GBW) Wire Mesh: In GBW wire mesh, each individual wire is galvanized before being welded into a mesh. This process ensures that the wires are fully coated, providing good corrosion resistance. However, the welding points themselves can be slightly less protected, making GBW mesh more suitable for indoor applications or environments with minimal exposure to moisture.
• Galvanized After Weld (GAW) Wire Mesh: GAW wire mesh is galvanized after the welding process, ensuring that both the wires and the welding joints are thoroughly coated with zinc. This method offers superior protection against rust and corrosion, making it ideal for use in more demanding outdoor or humid environments. GAW mesh is often preferred for heavy-duty applications due to its enhanced durability and longevity.

Comparison

• Protection Level: Hot-Dipped offers the highest, followed by GAW, with GBW and Electro Galvanized providing lighter protection.
• Application Environment: Hot-Dipped and GAW are better suited for harsh outdoor conditions, while Electro Galvanized and GBW are ideal for indoor or less corrosive settings.
• Coating Thickness: Hot-Dipped has the thickest coating, with Electro Galvanized being the thinnest and most uniform.
• Cost: Generally, Hot-Dipped and GAW are more expensive due to their comprehensive protection, while GBW and Electro Galvanized are more cost-effective for less demanding applications.

Specifications

• Material: Galvanized Steel Welded Wire Mesh is made from steel wire that has been coated with a protective layer of zinc. This galvanization process enhances the mesh’s resistance to rust and corrosion, making it ideal for use in various environments, both indoors and outdoors. The steel wire provides the mesh with its strength and durability, while the zinc coating ensures a longer lifespan by protecting against environmental wear and tear.
• Wire Diameters: Our Galvanized Steel Welded Wire Mesh offers a range of wire diameters to cater to various applications. For finer needs, diameters start at 0.5 mm, scaling up to a robust 12 mm for those requiring substantial support.Our Galvanized Steel Welded Wire Mesh is often selected in wire diameters of 2 mm, 4 mm, and 6 mm. These sizes strike an ideal balance between tensile strength for durability and flexibility for ease of use.
• Mesh Sizes: We provide a diverse array of mesh sizes to suit different project requirements. The selection ranges from compact 1/4″ (6.35 mm) square openings, perfect for secure filtration, to larger 4″ (101.6 mm) squares designed for fencing and barriers, ensuring versatility across applications. The mesh sizes most in demand are 1″x1″ (25.4 mm x 25.4 mm) and 2″x2″ (50.8 mm x 50.8 mm). Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of applications, from securing areas to creating enclosures.
• Panel Sizes: To accommodate the broad scope of projects, our panels come in standard sizes including 4’x8′ (1.22m x 2.44m) and extend to larger dimensions of 6’x12′ (1.83m x 3.66m). This variety ensures a suitable fit for various application needs, from small-scale projects to expansive installations.For practicality in handling and installation, the 4’x8′ panels are a popular choice among our clients. The 5’x10′ (1.52m x 3.05m) panels are also frequently chosen for projects requiring more extensive coverage with fewer joints.
• Customization: Clients have the option to specify wire diameters, mesh sizes, and panel dimensions tailored to their specific project needs. This adaptability enables the creation of mesh that meets unique requirements, whether it’s for particular strength demands or specific levels of openness or security. Furthermore, panels can be custom cut or welded to any desired size or shape, ensuring an exact fit for the unique dimensions or design requirements of any project. Our dedication to offering customizable solutions affirms our capability to deliver Galvanized Steel Welded Wire Mesh that precisely matches the scope and specificity of your project.
