Galvanized Mesh - By Construction Type

Due to its attractive price point and its corrosion resistance, galvanized wire mesh is very popular among industrial users of wire mesh. Galvanized is not a metal or alloy; it is a process in which a protective zinc coating is applied to steel to prevent rusting. In the wire mesh industry, however, it is often treated as a separate category because of its wide spread use in all types of applications.

Plain Weave/Crimp is considered the standard for mostly all woven galvanized wire mesh.

Intercrimp or Lock Crimp are very popular for custom manufactured galvanized woven wire mesh. It is usually reserved for opening sizes ½” and larger.

Welded wire mesh is an extremely popular type of construction for galvanized wire mesh. Welded construction usually applies to relatively larger opening sizes.

Hexagonal mesh is a special construction type and is sometimes referred to “hex mesh” or “chicken wire”.
