Pure Copper Chicken Wire Mesh for Thatched Roofs | 19mm Hole 0.7mm Gauge

Description

Pure Copper Chicken Wire Mesh

The 19 x 0.7mm pure copper chicken wire mesh is a specialised and premium product designed for durability and longevity, particularly for use on thatched roofs. Unlike the more common galvanised steel wire meshes, this copper chicken wire is manufactured from 100% pure copper, ensuring that it does not rust or deteriorate over time, which is especially important in the moist environments that thatched roofs can present.

The use of pure copper in the production of this mesh is significant, as it offers several advantages over other materials. Copper is naturally corrosion-resistant, which makes it ideal for outdoor use where exposure to elements is a concern. Its durability also means that once installed, it requires minimal maintenance, saving time and money over the long term.

Additionally, copper is known for its aesthetic appeal, which can enhance the visual appearance of a thatched roof, adding a subtle sheen and sophistication that other materials cannot match. Over time, the copper will develop a beautiful patina, blending seamlessly with the natural environment.

The mesh features a 19mm hexagonal hole size, which is perfect for keeping out pests and small animals, while still allowing for air circulation. The 0.7mm gauge wire is strong yet flexible, allowing for easy installation around the contours of a thatched roof. The flexibility does not compromise the mesh’s structural integrity, ensuring it can withstand the elements and the weight of snow or debris that may settle on a roof.

This pure copper chicken wire mesh is not only functional but also environmentally friendly. Copper is a sustainable material, being 100% recyclable without losing any of its properties or quality. This aspect is particularly appealing in today’s market where eco-friendly materials are increasingly valued.

Given the specialised nature of its production, this copper chicken wire mesh is more of an investment than other types of wire mesh. However, the benefits of its durability, low maintenance, aesthetic quality, and environmental sustainability make it a wise choice for those looking to protect their thatched roofs with a material that will last for years to come. The focus on using pure copper, a result of an expensive production process and high-quality material selection, sets this chicken wire apart as a rare and valuable addition to any thatched roofing project.

FAQs For This Product

Why Choose Pure Copper Over Galvanised Wire?

There are several reasons why pure copper chicken wire is preferred over galvanised wire. Firstly, copper’s natural properties help control the growth of moss, which is especially beneficial for thatched roofs where moisture can cause moss to grow. In contrast to galvanised wire, which corrodes over time and promotes moss growth, copper maintains its integrity and even releases ions that inhibit moss growth. Additionally, copper is more durable, withstanding harsh weather conditions without rusting, extending the lifespan of your roofing. A copper surface develops a beautiful patina over time that blends naturally with outdoor environments.

How Do I Cut Pure Copper Chicken Wire Safely?

Pure copper chicken wire must be cut with the right tools and protective gear in order to be cut safely. It is recommended that you use wire cutters or tin snips that are capable of handling the gauge of the wire. Wear thick gloves before cutting to protect your hands from sharp edges. It is also recommended to wear eye protection while cutting to prevent small pieces from flying off. Avoid injuries during handling by cutting with a firm, controlled motion and smoothing out any sharp ends.

Can Pure Copper Chicken Wire Be Used For Crafts?

Copper chicken wire is an excellent craft material due to its flexibility and attractive color, which adds a rustic or vintage flair to projects. Sculptures, jewelry, decorative frames, and even intricate pieces of art can be created with it. Due to its malleability, copper wire can be shaped into almost any shape while remaining sturdy. Copper wire can also be soldered, allowing for more complex and durable craft creations. During crafting, you should always handle wire with care since it can have sharp ends.
