Galvanized Wire Mesh

Galvanized is not a metal or alloy, it’s a process in which a protective zinc coating is applied to steel to prevent rusting. Due to its attractive price point and its corrosion resistance, galvanized wire mesh is very popular among industrial users of wire mesh. In the wire mesh industry, however, it is often treated as a separate category because of its wide spread use in all types of applications.

Product Description

Jiushen galvanized is not a metal or alloy, it’s a process in which a protective zinc coating is applied to steel to prevent rusting. Due to its attractive price point and its corrosion resistance, galvanized wire mesh is very popular among industrial users of wire mesh. In the wire mesh industry, however, it is often treated as a separate category because of its wide spread use in all types of applications.

Galvanizing can occur either before or after wire mesh is manufactured - both in woven form or welded form. Galvanized before woven wire mesh or galvanized before welded wire mesh indicates the individual wires, themselves, used to manufacture the mesh have been galvanized before the mesh is woven or welded.

On the other hand, galvanized after is manufactured (normally in carbon or plain steel) and is often placed in a galvanizing tank, thereby making this a galvanized after woven or welded specification. Generally speaking, this option is more expensive, depending on availability and other variables, but does offer a higher level of corrosion resistance. This added level of corrosion resistance is most noticeable at the joint or intersection of galvanized after welded wire mesh specification. Keep in mind that galvanizing a relatively fine mesh, after it is woven, is likely to clog the openings rendering it unusable in numerous applications. It is for this reason that, usually, a 10 x 10 mesh and finer will be manufactured as a galvanized before woven item.

Construction Type

Plain Weave / Crimp

This type features a simple over-and-under weave pattern, creating a flat mesh with small, uniform openings.
It is known for its stability and is commonly used in filtration and sieving applications.

Intercrimp or Lock Crimp

This construction type involves crimping the wires at their intersections, which adds extra strength and rigidity to the mesh.
The crimping process helps to lock the wires in place, making it suitable for applications requiring higher load-bearing capacity.

Welded

In welded wire mesh, the intersections of the wires are welded together, creating a strong and durable mesh.
This type is often used in construction for reinforcement purposes and in fencing applications.

Hexagonal

Hexagonal wire mesh, also known as chicken wire, features a hexagonal pattern of woven and twisted wires.
It is lightweight, flexible, and commonly used in agriculture for animal enclosures and garden protection.
