Specification Guide
This guide explains the specification details commonly used to describe industrial wire mesh. It does not accept orders or quotation requests.
Core Specification Fields
A complete wire mesh specification answers six questions. If an item is unknown, the application can help identify which standard or property needs further research.
- Product — e.g. plain weave stainless cloth, welded galvanized mesh, chain link fence, hexagonal netting (see the Products Catalog)
- Material — AISI 304/304L/316/316L stainless, low-carbon steel, brass or phosphor bronze, galvanized or PVC coated
- Mesh count and wire diameter — or the opening size / micron rating you need to achieve
- Dimensions — roll width and length, or piece sizes for cut-to-size orders
- Quantity — rolls, square meters or container volume; we quote more sharply on full-container loads
- Packing and delivery — destination port and preferred terms (FOB or CIF)
Samples, Minimums and Lead Times
Sample availability, minimum quantities, and lead times vary by manufacturer, material, mesh count, and fabrication requirements. The Service page explains common inspection, cutting, and packing considerations.
