3mm Round Hole Perforated Metal Galvanised Mesh Panel – 4mm Pitch – 0.7mm Thick

Description

Perforated Metal Galvanised Mesh Panel

Perforated metal galvanised mesh panel with a 2mm round hole is produced by punching flat galvanised plate with a specific pattern. The customer’s requirement for metal for cosmetic or application purposes drives this decision.

Sheets with perforations are commonly used to allow air to pass through. Ventilation and filtration are the main uses for this mesh type. Rodent proofing is another use for perforated sheeting.

Here is a quick breakdown of the key characteristics of this sheet metal:

• Bending & Forming – Good. It is possible to bend this metal with basic tools. We advise that bending by hand is not possible as the thickness of the sheet is too great. The thicker the sheet the harder to bend
• Corrosion Resistance – Good. We produce this from mild steel that has been zinc-dipped, which give it a galvanised finish that protects it from the elements
• Filtration – Good. This mesh has a large open area, consequently it is popularly used as a large filter or barrier
• Welding – Possible. Galvanised metal, when properly prepared, can be welded in the same manner as uncoated steel
• Painting – Poor. It’s best to paint plain steel since it doesn’t have a coating

There are many reasons to use perforated metal sheet for your mesh need. Above all, it allows for great airflow while providing strength and structure.

Sheet Metal Mesh

The specifications of this perforated galvanised steel mesh panel is as follows:

• Hole Size (Aperture) – 3mm round hole
• Pitch – 4mm. You can measure the pitch from the start of one hole to the next or the hole size plus the gap between the hole
• Thickness – 0.7mm thick flat sheet

This type of perforated steel has round holes punched in a triangular pattern. You will also find square and various other shapes through the Perforated Metal section of our store.

Round holed stainless steel and aluminium sheet metal mesh are suitable for a large range of purposes, consequently we have supplied thousands of customers with this type of sheet.

Galvanised Steel

Made from mild steel that has been hot-dip galvanized for protection against the elements.  Hot-dip galvanized mild steel for protection against the elements. Coated in zinc to make it more hardwearing, galvanised perforated sheet is perfect for use in outdoor conditions. This EN ISO 1461 protective coat ensures the mild steel is guarded against corrosion, which makes it an ideal component in gates, fences, outdoor furniture, balustrade inserts and shelving.

The perforated galvanised steel sheet has a pattern of round holes that can be varied based on metal thickness, hole size, and pitch (distance between holes).

Perforated steel sheet is commonly used by architects and designers as they are able to play with light, sound, and visual depth using the patterned sheet.

It is important to note that ‘Galvanised Steel’ and ‘Galvanized Steel’ refer to the same finish.
