Welded Wire Mesh: Applications, Specifications, and Advantages for Industrial Use

1. What Is Welded Wire Mesh?

Welded wire mesh is a metal grid formed by welding intersecting wires at each joint. Compared with woven mesh, welded mesh offers higher strength, excellent rigidity, and stable structure, making it suitable for heavy-duty industrial and construction applications.

Common materials include:

  • Stainless steel 304 / 316

  • Low-carbon steel (Q195 / Q235)

  • Galvanized steel (electro-galvanized / hot-dip galvanized)

  • Aluminum (for lightweight applications)

Welded mesh is available in panels (flat sheets) or rolls, depending on your project requirements.


2. Popular Specifications of Welded Mesh

Mesh Sizes

Common openings include:

  • 1/4 inch – 1 inch

  • 6 mm × 6 mm

  • 10 mm × 10 mm

  • 25 mm × 25 mm

  • Customized mesh size available

Wire Diameters

From 0.5 mm to 6 mm, depending on load-bearing requirements.

Surface Finishing Options

  • Hot-dip galvanized – strong corrosion resistance, suitable for outdoor use

  • Electro-galvanized – smooth surface, cost-effective

  • Stainless steel – high performance, anti-corrosion, clean appearance

  • PVC coating – enhanced durability and color options


3. Key Features & Advantages

✔ High Strength

Welding at every joint ensures excellent load capacity and structural integrity.

✔ Anti-Corrosion Options

Stainless steel or galvanized finishes provide long service life even in harsh environments.

✔ Easy to Cut & Fabricate

Welded mesh can be cut, bent, framed, or fabricated into components for further processing.

✔ Excellent Dimensional Stability

Openings stay uniform without deformation.
