Woven, Welded Wire Meshes

A mesh is a barrier made of connected strands of metal, fiber, or other flexible/ductile materials. A mesh is similar to a web or a net in that it has many attached or woven strands

Types of Mesh

• A plastic mesh may be extruded, oriented, expanded, wovenor tubular.
• It can be made from polypropylene, polyethylene, nylon, PVC or PTFE.
• A metal mesh may be woven, knitted, welded, expanded, photo-chemically etched or electroformed (screen filter) from steel or other metals.
• In clothing, a mesh is often defined as a loosely woven or knitted fabric that has a large number of closely spaced holes. Knitted mesh is frequently used for modern sports jerseys and other clothing.
• A mesh skin graft is a skin patch that has been cut systematically to create a mesh.Meshing of skin grafts provides coverage of a greater surface area at the recipient site, and also allows for the egress of serous or sanguinous fluid. However, it results in a rather pebbled
• appearance upon healing that may ultimately look less aesthetically pleasing.
• Fiberglass mesh is a neatly woven, crisscross pattern of fiberglass thread that can be used to create new products such as door screens, filtration components, and reinforced adhesive tapes. It is commonly sprayed with a PVC coating to make it stronger, last longer, and to prevent skin irritation.
