0.78mm Hole Galvanised Steel Metal Sieve Mesh – 0.28mm Wire – 24 LPI

Description

Woven Wire Galvanised Steel Metal Sieve Mesh

0.78mm hole heavy duty galvanised steel metal sieve mesh made from 0.28mm wire

0.78mm aperture is fairly large to be woven to form a mesh netting, as a consequence it is fairly light and malleable.

Below is a breakdown of the key characteristics of this galvanised mesh:

• Bending & Forming – Good. It is possible to bend this metal by hand. Use gloves to handle this mesh
• Corrosion Resistance – Good. We produce this from mild steel that has been zinc-dipped, which gives it the 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 galvanised steel mesh for your mesh requirement. Above all, it allows for great airflow while providing strength and structure.

The Mesh Company has an enormous range of wire mesh products.  We truly are an industry leader among suppliers of weld mesh and woven wire materials. With the capabilities we have in-house, we can provide virtually anything you require. Chicken wire, insect meshing and rodent mesh materials are also available in large stock quantities at bargain prices.

Mesh Strainer

Below are the specifications of this 0.78mm wire coarse metal sieve mesh:

• Mesh Count = 24 holes per linear inch. The amount of holes measured against a straight line inch
• Holes / Wires Per Square Inch = 576 holes per square inch. The amount of holes per linear inch squared
• Wire Thickness = 0.28mm. The thickness of each wire. The structure is thicker than this where two wires meet
• Hole Size / Aperture = 0.78mm. This is the square hole size from wire to wire
• Open Area % = 54%. The amount of the mesh that is open. The higher this number the more open a mesh is. This is a very high open area%
• Cut With – We cut this mesh with tin snips. We suggest that you do the same

Makes a fantastic mesh strainer. This metal sieve filters out particles larger than 0.78mm.

Plain Weave

The Mesh Company specialises in plain weave woven wire mesh. Woven mesh is made on a loom by crossing each warp wire alternately above and below every weft wire, and vice versa. Warp and weft wires are normally of the same diameter.

Most commercial applications and filtration systems requiring high flow rates use this type of mesh. The wires are loose, but the weave is tight so the structure is strong.

Weaving the wires allows for the smallest hole size possible out of all mesh types.

140 years of experience goes into producing this mesh.

Galvanised Steel

Made from mild steel that has been hot-dip galvanized for protection against the elements. Coated in zinc to make it more hardwearing, galvanised woven wire mesh 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 and beehives.

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

About The Mesh Company

In 2008 Locker Wire Weavers launched The Mesh Company to bring our enormous range of wire mesh products to the general public for the first time. Previously wire mesh was only available for trade customers.

We continue to extend our range, and now proudly offer many forms of mesh and metal products for the best possible prices.  We specialise in woven wire mesh.  As a group we work closely with architects and designers to develop ground-breaking new applications for our multifunctional range of materials. We also offer state of the art fabrication and engineering for projects of all sizes.

Strong ties with the Warrington community continue to be at the very core of our business. We are proud to invest in the training and developing our staff of all levels in line with the traditions set by Thomas Locker, who founded our group 150 years ago when he invented the electronic loom. We continue to bring ingenuity and strong ethics to our day to day business.
