Weldmesh is a welded steel wire mesh manufactured brown bright drawn wire, electrically welded at the intersections. Because it is welded it can be cut or bent to the shape required without the wires falling apart and forms its own selvage when cut flush. The properties of the wires used are rigidly controlled to produce a welded mesh which has maximum weld strength combined with ductility.
All intersections are resistance welded without reducing the tensile strength of the wires, and welds have average shear strength equal to 80% of the wire strength.
GENERAL USES
Weldmesh has an infinite number of uses, some of the most general applications being:
Where weldmesh is supplied with galvanized finish, the zinc coating is to BS443.
