Copper wire mesh is ductile, malleable and has high thermal and electrical conductivity. Because of these unique characteristics, it is often used as RFI shielding, in Faraday Cages, in roofing, in HVAC and in countless electrical-based applications. Without a doubt, copper wire mesh is critical to many industries, and it is often at the center of technological advancements in a broad range of fields.

The wire mesh specifications featured here represent some of the more common copper wire mesh specifications that industrial customers request. These items are available from stock or can be custom manufactured, depending upon the customer’s requirements. Copper mesh is popular in a wide array of general industrial applications, including electrical and thermal conductivity and filtration.

Also, due to its remarkable dark-amber color, copper wire mesh is used in decorative, architectural and even artistic applications, including insect screen, wall panels and visual displays.

Copper wire mesh is durable in many types of environments. Although it is softer than a similar stainless steel wire mesh, it is also resistant to atmospheric corrosion but attacked by oxidizing agents such as nitric acid, ferric chloride, cyanides, and ammonia acids compounds. Darby’s copper wire mesh is woven to the industry standard, ASTM E-2016-11, is 99.9% pure copper and when exposed to the atmosphere, a patina, or a thin green layer, is likely to develop.
