Aluminum is largely considered the most popular non-ferrous metal in the world, and as such, aluminum alloys are commonly used in the wire mesh industry. Aluminum alloys are composed primarily of aluminum, and also contain other elements like copper, magnesium, manganese, or silicon.

Aluminum woven wire mesh is lightweight; in fact, a good rule of thumb is that, when compared to its stainless steel counterpart, aluminum mesh is approximately 1/3rd the weight of stainless. Aluminum wire mesh is also corrosion resistant in most normal environments but will corrode quickly in the presence of alkaline solutions and hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids. With an estimated melting point of 1218 ºF, aluminum has many benefits, including a relatively low cost compared to other meshes.

Typically, diamond mesh is custom manufactured to the exact specifications of our customers' request. Diamond mesh is manufactured on specially designed diamond mesh looms that weave mesh in a diamond orientation, as opposed to the standard square orientation. In addition to producing this unique diamond orientation, these special looms allow for weaving extremely wide widths. Diamond mesh is commonly used in infill panels, as wall partitions and window guards.
