Welded wire mesh and fence that is Galvanized After Weld (GAW) is strong and durable. These products are made by dipping previously welded mesh into a bath of molten zinc. The entire fence or mesh, including the welded areas, is thoroughly sealed and protected against rust and corrosion. Because it is covered with so much more zinc than GBW galvanized before welded wire fencing, it will last years longer.
GAW welded meshes and fences are available in a wide variety of gauges and mesh sizes. These determine the final use of the product. Smaller meshes made with lighter gauge wires are ideal for making long lasting cages for small animals. The heavier gauges and meshes with larger openings make durable fences for animals. They have many uses around the home.
16GA: 1/2"x1/2", 1/2"x1", 1"x1", 1"x2".
14GA: 1"x1",1'x2", 2"x2", 2"x4".
12-1/2GA: 1/2"x3", 1"x1", 1-1/2"x1-1/2", 1"x2".
Hot-dipped galvanised welded wire mesh rolls are available in various wire thicknesses from 14-19 gauge (2mm to 1mm) thick. Rolls are availble in widths from 3ft (900mm) up to 1.6m (5'3"). Lengths of rolls vary from 10m up to 30m. Welded wire metal mesh netting is hot-dipped galvanized (zinc coated) and will therefore not corrode. The steel mesh is welded at each mesh join ensuring the mesh is extremely strong, durable and long lasting.
Galvanised welded wire mesh is suitable for gardening, industrial, security and agriculture applications. Welded mesh rolls can be fixed to wooden fencing posts and frames using galvanized u-nails. It is also possible to weld the metal steel mesh to other steel products including frames, posts and cages.
