In the wire mesh industry, plain steel – or carbon steel, as it sometimes referred to—is a very popular metal that is commonly manufactured in both woven and welded wire mesh specifications. It is comprised primarily of iron (Fe) with a small amount of carbon (C). It is a relatively low cost option that is versatile and widespread in its use.

Plain steel wire mesh, whether it is available from stock or custom manufactured, is strong, durable and magnetic. Oftentimes, it is dark in color, particularly when compared to bright aluminum or stainless steel meshes. Plain steel does not resist corrosion and will rust in most atmospheric conditions; because of this, in certain industries, plain steel wire mesh is a disposable item.

The popular specifications featured here range in opening size from 4” clear opening to approximately 1”. These items are constantly manufactured, so if they are not on the floor ready to ship, they soon will be. These heavy duty items are manufactured and stocked in sheet form, with 4FT x 8FT and 4FT x 10FT sheets being most requested.

These specifications are commonly used in a wide array of industrial and commercial applications, including machine and window guards, animal enclosures and infill panels. Architects, designers and builders routinely use these specifications in their projects.
