1.5-inch galvanized hexagonal netting (with a mesh size of about 40mm) is a versatile material known for its strength and corrosion resistance. Here are its main features and applications:
Key Features
· Specifications: Mesh size is 1.5″ (40mm). Wire diameter typically ranges from 0.6mm to 1.65mm (BWG 23-16), and roll widths can be up to 2 meters .
· Material & Coating: Made from low-carbon steel wire and coated with zinc. Options include electro-galvanized (smoother finish) or hot-dipped (thicker, rougher coating for better corrosion resistance) .
· Durability: It offers good tensile strength, and is resistant to oxidation, rust, and corrosion .
· Appearance: The mesh has a uniform, flat surface, is tightly woven, and remains flexible and easy to handle .
Common Applications
Thanks to its durability and flexibility, this netting is used in various fields :
· Agriculture & Gardening: Ideal for poultry fencing (chicken coops) and animal enclosures (rabbits). It also works as garden fencing to protect plants or as a trellis for climbers .
· Construction & Civil Engineering: Used as stucco netting for plaster reinforcement on walls or insulation systems. In larger wire diameters, it’s used to make gabions for retaining walls and erosion control .
· Industrial & Other Uses: It serves as a light reinforcement in concrete, a protective barrier against rockfall or for hillside stabilization. It’s also popular for crafts and DIY projects like sculptures .
