This expanded mild steel mesh, with its specified dimensions and properties, is ideal for applications where strength and weldability are crucial. The poor formability and corrosion resistance suggest it may require additional treatments for some uses, but its robust nature and mesh structure make it a versatile material for many industrial and construction purposes.
-
Material: Mild Steel is known for its durability and strength, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
-
Mesh Size: The Long Way (LW) dimension of 50.8 mm and Short Way (SW) dimension of 22.6mm define the size of the openings in the mesh, indicating the spacing between the strands of steel.
-
Strand Dimensions: The strand width of 3.1 mm and strand thickness of 2.0 mm contribute to the mesh's overall strength and stability.
-
Formability: Rated as poor, meaning the material does not easily conform to different shapes without risking damage or requiring significant force.
-
Weldability: Rated as excellent, indicating that the material can be easily and effectively welded, which is beneficial for creating strong, permanent joins in various applications.
-
Finish: Mill Finish indicates that the surface is in its raw state post-manufacturing, which is typically rougher and may require further processing for aesthetic or protective purposes.
-
Corrosion Resistance: Rated as poor, suggesting that the material is susceptible to rust and corrosion if exposed to moisture or corrosive environments without protective coatings.
-
Weight: The weight per metre of 19.41 kg provides an idea of the heaviness of the mesh, which can impact handling and installation.
