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.

The galvanised mesh panel is a functional and durable product tailored for various applications. Made of galvanised steel, it is resistant to rust and corrosion, ensuring longevity even in challenging environments. The mesh features a 3mm round hole, arranged in a consistent triangular pattern, which provides both an aesthetic appeal and a purposeful design for many uses.

A significant specification to note is its pitch, set at 4mm. This metric, measuring from the start of one hole to the beginning of the next, combines the hole size and the gap in between. The precise spacing ensures consistent airflow and material distribution, making it suitable for tasks that require both breathability and protection.

At a thickness of 0.7mm, the galvanised mesh panel strikes a balance between strength and flexibility. It’s robust enough to serve as barriers, partitions, or protective screens, yet malleable for shaping or bending for specific project needs.

Given its design and features, the galvanised mesh panel is versatile. It can be used in construction, for ventilation systems, protective barriers, and even in decorative or architectural installations. The galvanisation process ensures that the mesh remains protected against elements, making it a reliable choice for both indoor and outdoor projects.

Specification Of This Mesh:

• 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
• Pattern – Triangular

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.

We also offer a massive range of hexagonal hole galvanised metal sheet options from immediate stock.

In order to produce galvanised steel hexagonal perforated metal mesh sheet, flat sheet metal is punched with a hexagonal hole. Perforated sheets are commonly often used in applications where the passing of air is required. Because the holes are punched, it is possible to have a far stronger finished metal product than it would be for the equivalent thickness in woven or welded mesh.

FAQs For This Product

Can Perforated Galvanised Mesh Panel Be Painted Or Coated?

Yes, a perforated galvanised mesh panel can be painted or coated. However, there are certain preparatory steps to ensure good adhesion and longevity of the paint or coating:

1. Cleaning: Before painting, it’s crucial to clean the mesh panel thoroughly to remove any dirt, grease, or oils. This can be done using a mild detergent or a de-greasing agent.
2. Surface Preparation: Galvanised steel has a protective zinc layer that can make it challenging for paint to adhere directly. It’s often recommended to lightly sand the surface or use a primer specifically designed for galvanised metal. This will provide a suitable base for the paint to adhere to.
3. Priming: Apply a metal primer that’s formulated for galvanised surfaces. This will ensure better adhesion of the paint and will prevent potential corrosion from any areas where the galvanised coating might be thin or compromised.
4. Painting: Once primed, the panel can be painted using acrylic or latex-based paints that are suitable for metal surfaces. Always check the paint’s label to ensure compatibility with galvanised steel.
5. Sealing (Optional): After painting, you can apply a clear sealant to protect the paint, especially if the mesh panel will be exposed to harsh environmental conditions.

Is The Mesh Panel Effective For Ventilation Systems?

Absolutely, the galvanised mesh panel is highly effective for ventilation systems. The panel’s 3mm round holes are arranged in a triangular pattern, which ensures even and consistent airflow for a variety of ventilation needs. Besides allowing optimal air circulation, the perforations also act as a barrier, preventing larger debris, pests, or other unwanted elements from entering. Due to its galvanised finish, the mesh is resistant to corrosion and rust, making it suitable for ventilation systems in humid or moisture-prone environments.

As well as being strong and flexible, the panel’s 0.7mm thickness maintains structural integrity while being adaptable to different ventilation arrangements. As a reliable choice for ensuring efficient and durable ventilation, galvanised mesh panels are widely used in building facades, HVAC systems, and industrial exhausts.

How Does The Mesh’s Triangular Pattern Impact Light Diffusion?

The mesh’s triangular pattern uniquely impacts light diffusion. Round holes are angled to create varied reflections and refractions, which disperse light beams effectively and produce a softer, diffused illumination. A triangular pattern can also cast intriguing and dynamic shadows when lit from specific angles, adding depth and visual interest to a space. In general, the triangular layout enhances the way light interacts with the mesh both aesthetically and functionally.
