Those in the archaeology field often specify and use many of the items featured here. While galvanized hardware cloth remains very versatile and popular, Darby offers a handful of heavier duty galvanized wire mesh specifications that are often required for more intense separation purposes.

T-304 stainless steel is often specified and used in certain situations where corrosion resistance is required. Additionally, in the wire mesh industry, T-304 stainless steel will offer the most readily available options, in terms of mesh count and diameter wire.

Additional Information N/A

Welded wire mesh specifications are commonly used in a wide array of industrial and non-industrial applications, including animal caging, critter and varmint control, agricultural use, air vents, basket fabrication, food applications, aviary and bird screen, industrial separation fan and machine guards, security retention, basket fabrication, industrial separation and soffit screens.

Residential do-it-yourselfers gravitate towards these specific items because they offer tremendous value and versatility for projects around the home. In most normal environments, stainless steel will have a longer life cycle than a comparable galvanized mesh.

It is important to distinguish between T-304 stainless steel and T-316 stainless steel. T-304 stainless steel is more popular and more widespread in it use, while T-316 stainless steel is generally reserved for marine environments as it offers a higher resistance to corrosion.

The items listed on this website represent many of the most requested specifications of stainless steel welded wire mesh. These items are available from stock or can be custom manufactured. Should you not see your preferred specification, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
