Description of Galvanized Wire Mesh
Galvanizing can occur either before or after wire mesh is manufactured – both in woven form or welded form. Galvanized before woven wire mesh or galvanized before welded wire mesh indicates the individual wires, themselves, used to manufacture the mesh have been galvanized before the mesh is woven or welded. Depending on the mesh (or opening size) and diameter wire, this is usually the less expensive option, especially if custom manufacturing is required.

Galvanized Wire Mesh FAQs
Q1. What is Galvanized Wire Mesh?
Galvanized Wire Mesh is a type of wire mesh that has been coated with a layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion. It is used in various applications due to its durability and resistance to environmental factors.
Q2. How does the galvanization process enhance the wire mesh?
Galvanization coats the wire mesh with zinc, providing a protective layer that resists rust and corrosion, extending the lifespan of the mesh, especially in outdoor and harsh environments.
Q3. How should Galvanized Wire Mesh be maintained?
Regular Inspection: Check for any signs of damage or corrosion.
Cleaning: Remove dirt and debris with water and a mild detergent.
Repair: Address any damaged areas promptly to prevent further deterioration.
