| Hardware Cloth is
constructed of the lightest wire diameter which a given
mesh can be produced with good stability.
|
| The larger
openings including 1, 2, 3 and 4 Mesh are typically welded
and then Hot Dip Galvanized after. The 5 and 8 Mesh is woven
using pre-galvanized (electro-galvanized) wire. |

Please Note:
Galvanized screen mesh (either hot dip galvanized after or
electo-galvanized before) will have exposed bare metal if sawed or
sheared to alter the mesh shape or dimension. This exposure will
result in moisture migration (wicking) between the layer of zinc and
the bare steel wire beneath.. If left exposed (untreated) over time
the moisture will continue to travel between the layers as it continues to rust although not visible the rust damage will continue to grow
slowly over time until it fails completely and will need to be
replaced. This hidden damage can be prevented by applying a
generous layer of zinc rich paint that may be applied by brush or spray to
seal any exposed bare metal. |
