Hexagonal mesh is a type of wire netting characterized by its distinctive hexagonal openings, often called chicken wire. It's widely used for fencing, animal enclosures, and general support. Classification typically depends on the wire material (e.g., galvanized, PVC-coated) and the size of the mesh openings, offering flexibility for various applications.
Wire Diameter: Usually ranges from 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm, depending on strength needed.
Wire Type: Made from galvanized, PVC-coated, or stainless steel wire.
Mesh Size: Common openings are 13 mm, 25 mm, 31 mm, 50 mm, and 75 mm.
Structure: Made with a double-twist pattern for strength and flexibility.
Roll Length: Standard lengths include 10 m, 25 m, 30 m, and 50 m.
Roll Width: Common widths are 0.5 m, 1.0 m, 1.2 m, and 2.0 m.
Coating Thickness: Zinc coating ranges from 40 to 230 g/m²; PVC is 0.3–0.5 mm thick.
Mesh Height (Box Use): Heights for gabion-type mesh range from 0.3 m to 1.0 m.
Edge Type: Edges can be knuckled (folded) or twisted for different uses.
