Coronavirus (COVID-19) Information
At the moment, we are processing and dispatching orders however delivery days may be possible due to the Coronavirus situation. Having anticipated short supplies of goods at the beginning of the year, we have filled our warehouse with stock. Whilst a certain product may be out of stock on our website, we will have an alternative option available which will be in stock – please feel free to ask our live chat agents for alternatives if you cannot find a suitable product for your application.
We may find that over the next few days or weeks that the speed of service we take pride in providing may be delayed slightly, either due to the requirement for staff members to self-isolate, or due to the pressures on the courier networks. Should this issue arise, we will do our very best to keep you fully informed, and rest assured that we will do everything possible to dispatch and deliver your order. If we could ask that you bear with us that would be very much appreciated, especially in the case of potential delivery issues. Some delivery delays may be unavoidable, as all UK courier networks are at full capacity due to unprecedented levels of deliveries, combined with a potential shortage of drivers due to self-isolation requirements.

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-weight welded wire mesh, which offers more rigidity and strength than a light-weight welded mesh or chicken wire netting. The wire thickness of the mesh is 16 gauge (approx. 1.6mm thick), which makes this a strong mesh for long lasting protection against large birds such as pigeons.
This mesh is available in both Grade 304 and Grade 316 stainless steel. Grade 316 offers a higher level of protection against rusting, and is referred to as "marine grade". The Grade 316 stainless steel should be used for applications requiring greater corrosion protection, in particular where the mesh is to be used in a coastal location.
Specification
- Material: Grade 304 and Grade 316 stainless steel.
- Hole size: 25mm (1 inch).
- Wire thickness: 16 gauge (1.6mm).
- Weight per square metre: Approx. 1277 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.

I would like to build a couple of chicken houses. Instead of having wooden floors I would like to use mesh so that their droppings fall through onto the ground. The mesh would need to be strong enough to support the weight of the chickens when they walk to the perches. Using a piece of wood attached to the walls of the hen house to support the outer edges of the mesh. Can you please advise me on the thickness of the wire needed to meet this requirement.
Thank you for your enquiry.
We would suggest either a 25 x 25 mm hole or a 13 x 13 mm hole 16 gauge in galvanized welded mesh.
