Request Information
Vinyl coated hardware cloth is typically used in a wide range of general purpose commercial, industrial and residential projects. Vinyl coating adds an additional protective layer of corrosion resistance. Black vinyl coated remains the most popular and is often used in caging, window and machine guards, tree and plant guards and vents.

The 2 Mesh (or 1/2" x 1/2" Squares) hardware cloth is perhaps the most popular of all of the hardware cloth items because of its versatility, price point and construction style. This galvanized welded wire mesh is strong yet flexible; it can also be cut relatively easily and bent and formed.

Note

Note

 N/A Due to the complexities in the galvanizing process, wires may not be perfectly straight; while straightness may impact the appearance of the mesh, it should not impact its functionality. If "straight-ness" is a major concern, we recommend looking at another type of wire mesh, like stainless steel.
