1.18mm Hole Marine Grade Stainless Insect Mesh By The Metre – 0.23mm Wire – 18 LPI

Description

Marine Grade Stainless Insect Mesh

The Marine Grade Stainless Insect Mesh is meticulously designed to offer an optimal blend of durability and functionality, ensuring a robust solution for keeping pests at bay. Crafted from superior marine-grade stainless steel, this mesh is tailored specifically for environments requiring the highest standard of corrosion resistance and longevity.

Key Features:

1. Mesh Count and Construction: The mesh boasts a count of 18 holes per linear inch, providing a fine weave that is effective in blocking insects while still allowing for excellent air flow. This precise count leads to a total of 324 holes per square inch when calculated over a square inch area. The consistency and uniformity in the design make it ideal for various protective applications.
2. Wire Thickness and Strength: Each wire within the mesh measures 0.23mm in thickness, contributing significantly to the overall strength and resilience of the product. The intersection where two wires meet is cleverly engineered to be thicker, enhancing the mesh’s structural integrity. This thoughtful construction ensures that despite its fine appearance, the mesh remains exceptionally strong.
3. Hole Size and Open Area: The hole size, or aperture, is precisely 1.177mm, forming a perfect square from wire to wire. This dimension is crucial as it balances the need to exclude pests while maintaining superb airflow and visibility. Complementing this is the mesh’s 70% open area, a feature that highlights its spacious yet secure design. This high percentage of open space not only maximises transparency but also promotes better ventilation, making the mesh an excellent choice for a variety of screening applications.
4. Ease of Use and Versatility: Despite its robust composition, the Marine Grade Stainless Insect Mesh is surprisingly easy to handle and install. It can be cut effortlessly with standard kitchen scissors, a testament to its user-friendly nature. This ease of manipulation makes it perfect for DIY projects and professional installations alike, offering flexibility in use across domestic and commercial settings.

Applications:

This mesh is particularly suited for locations exposed to saline or humid environments, where corrosion resistance is paramount. Its marine-grade quality ensures that it withstands harsh conditions without degradation, making it ideal for coastal properties, boats, and external structures near the sea. Furthermore, it is an excellent choice for food preparation areas, hospitals, and anywhere hygiene and cleanliness are crucial, thanks to its easy-to-clean surface and resistance to rust.

Benefits:

• Superior Protection: Effectively keeps insects out while allowing natural light and fresh air to pass through.
• High Durability: Built to last with marine-grade stainless steel that resists corrosion and wear.
• Aesthetic Appeal: Offers a neat and unobtrusive appearance that does not detract from the aesthetic of a building.
• Flexibility: Easy to customise and fit into various frames and structures, accommodating a wide range of applications.
• Low Maintenance: Requires minimal upkeep due to its high resistance to environmental factors.
