Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information
Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak, we have taken the decision to temporarily close our operations until Monday 6th April 2020. This decision has not been taken lightly, but the closure will allow our operations team to get back up to full strength so that we can offer our usual high standard of service.
Assuming that there is no change in circumstances or a change in Government guidance, we plan to process and dispatch all orders from 6th April, and you should receive your delivery within 7 working days from this date. We very much hope that you will bear with us through these unprecedented circumstances, and rest assured that we will get your order to you as a priority.
Thank-you for your support, and we hope that you and your family stay safe during this difficult time.

Details
Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, and therefore is longer lasting than a galvanized finish mesh. Stainless steel is commonly used in the food industry, but has a wide variety of applications where a higher level of rust resistance is required.
This product is a medium to heavy-weight welded wire mesh, which is an excellent choice for strong, long lasting bird protection against large and small birds. As well as birds, this mesh will also keep out rats and squirrels.
The 16 gauge wire (approx. 1.6mm thick), combined with the small 13mm hole size, provides the mesh with strength and rigidity.
Specification
- Material: Grade 304 stainless steel.
- Hole size: 13mm (1/2 inch).
- Wire thickness: 16 gauge (1.6mm).
- Weight per square metre: Approx. 2500 grams.
- Roll Heights: The heights of the rolls are manufactured to imperial measurements (feet and inches). We have rounded down the metric height conversions for simplicity. The accurate metric height is as follows: 1220mm (4ft) high.
All measurements +/- 15%. If you require a micrometer reading of the wire thickness then please call us on 01782 820 970.

How rigid is this mesh?
Could it be used as a support for plant pots on a 3ft wide table frame?
Thank you for the enquiry.
The 6mm x 6mm welded mesh is a light-weight mesh (similar to the type of mesh you would see on a bird nut-feeder). Therefore, I doubt that it would be strong enough to support the plant pots.
If you are looking for a more rigid mesh, then our 13mm x 13mm 16 gauge welded mesh is stronger. I should add that even this more rigid mesh may need some additional support, depending on the weight of the plant pots.
What is the % Free Area of this mesh?
Thank you for the enquiry.
The open area of the 13mm x 13mm 16 gauge welded stainless mesh is around 76%.
I want to make a cowling to go over the top of a chimney stack. What mesh would you recommend?
Thank you for the enquiry.
A 25mm x 25mm hole welded mesh will keep larger birds out, such as pigeons, crows, jackdaws. If you want to keep out smaller birds as well, then you should use 13mm x 13mm hole welded mesh. The 19 gauge lightweight mesh is strong enough to keep the birds out, but is quite flexible. If you require a stronger, more rigid mesh then please select 16 gauge.
Some of our customers use a stainless steel mesh for a longer lasting cowl
