Flexible decorative metal mesh, crafted from stainless steel, aluminum alloy, and other metals, is woven in various patterns and processed with coating and plating techniques. This woven wire mesh attracts great attention of designers, due to the varied range of materials and colors as well as the flexibility of installation.
Specifications
Material:
- Stainless Steel: Commonly used for its corrosion resistance and durability. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
- Aluminum Alloy: Lightweight, yet strong, making it easier to install. Resistant to corrosion and can be anodized for various colors.
- Other Materials: Copper, brass, and other special alloys are also available, offering unique finishes and effects.
Wire Diameter:
- Ranges from 0.8 mm to 2.5 mm, providing various levels of strength and flexibility to match the specific architectural or structural requirements.
Aperture Size:
- Aperture sizes vary from 4 mm to 20 mm, creating different levels of transparency, allowing for the right balance between privacy and visibility.
Open Area:
- The open area ranges from 40% to 85%, impacting airflow, light diffusion, and overall aesthetic.
Maximum Dimensions:
- Width: Up to 6 meters wide, suitable for covering large wall or ceiling sections.
- Height: Can extend up to 30.48 meters high, making it ideal for multi-story buildings or tall spaces.
Tolerance Levels:
- Width: ± 0.5 inches (± 13 mm)
- Length: ± 1 inch (± 25 mm)
Color and Finish:
- Available in various metallic shades or painted in colors like bronze, black, purple, and more.
Surface Treatments:
Baking paint, anodizing (for aluminum), copper plating, and spray painting provide a lasting, beautiful finish.
Peculiarities
- Lightweight Construction: Made from lightweight materials, it’s easy to handle, install, and shape, which simplifies the installation process and reduces labor costs.
- Glossy Finish: The mesh has a glossy surface that can be customized with color for an elegant appearance.
- High-Temperature Resistance: Withstands high temperatures without warping or melting, making it suitable for environments with significant heat exposure.
- Corrosion Resistance: Anti-corrosion properties make it ideal for humid or chemically exposed environments.
- Fire Protection: Non-combustible, providing an added layer of safety in public spaces.
- Moisture-Proofing: Resistant to moisture, reducing the risk of rust and mold formation.
- Soundproofing: The structure of the mesh reduces sound transmission, making it useful in creating quieter spaces in noisy environments.
- Massive and Partial Application: Can be used for large-scale applications like building facades or as partial decorative accents on ceilings and partitions.
- Building Protection: Besides aesthetics, it can provide protection to buildings by serving as an additional barrier.
Installation Methods
- Extended-Loop Bar Eyebolt: This method uses a looped bar and an eyebolt for securing the mesh to the framework. The looped bar is extended across the structure to ensure proper tension and alignment of the mesh panels.
- Frame with Double Eyebolts: The mesh is mounted onto a frame structure with two eyebolts per attachment point. This double-eyebolt design provides extra stability and a secure fit for the mesh, making it suitable for larger applications.
- Tube and Adjusting Part: In this system, tubular support structures are paired with adjustable parts to ensure precise tensioning. The adjusting parts allow for quick adjustments to be made on-site to achieve a perfect fit.
- Track, Roller, and Spiral Rod: A combination of a track system with rollers and spiral rods enables the mesh to be installed in a manner that allows it to slide horizontally, creating dynamic partitions or curtains. This setup provides a flexible solution for spaces that require adaptable boundaries.
- Track and Roller: Similar to the above, this setup features a simpler design with a track and roller system. The track secures the mesh, while the roller allows for smooth sliding motion.
- Spiral and Bar Eyebolt: In this approach, spiral rods are attached to the mesh, while a bar eyebolt anchors the rods to the structure. This ensures the mesh remains securely mounted while still allowing for some flexibility.
