Wire Cloth Applications

Wire cloth is among the most versatile materials for both commercial and industrial projects. Offering unmatched strength, it also provides filtration and visibility benefits that you can’t match with solid sheet metal. At Argus Steel, we provide high-quality wire cloth for a variety of applications.

Types of Wire Mesh

There are many applications of wire cloth, which vary depending on the type of metal mesh and its benefits.

Industrial Filtration and Straining

Wire cloth is unique for its precise, repeatable openings, which can be customized in a variety of ways. For industrial filtration and straining, mesh metal panels offer a specialized approach. They are strong and corrosion resistant, suitable for most liquids and designed with openings small enough to filter out fine debris.

Use metal mesh for:

  • Liquid filtration.
  • Oil straining in industrial kitchens.
  • Chemical processing.
  • Slurry screening.

Machine Guards and Safety Screens

Some machines need equal parts visibility and protection. Wire cloth offers a strong, well-constructed design that also allows for visibility, airflow and filtration. With customizable hole sizes, wire cloth can work in almost any scenario, allowing you to monitor the machine and systems inside without compromising security.

Wire cloth is often designed for:

  • Equipment enclosures.
  • Industrial safety barriers.
  • Conveyor guards.
  • Protective machine mesh.

Security Fencing and Partitions

Wire cloth also excels in security. The best types of wire mesh for fencing include carbon steel, galvanized steel and aluminum. All of these materials offer heavy-duty and corrosion-resistant solutions in high-traffic environments. Wire cloth is also easy to customize to specific sizes and allows workers to maintain a clear line of sight through the mesh.

This is ideal for:

  • Secure storage areas.
  • Warehouse partitions.
  • Data centers.
  • Private, closed-off areas.

Architectural Mesh and Railing Infill

Wire cloth also serves a specific role in providing strong, aesthetically pleasing solutions in both industrial and commercial spaces. Decorative wire mesh panels don’t compromise on strength or quality, but look clean and modern without the visual heaviness of solid metal sheets. Wire cloth also provides appropriate filtration and visibility for public railings and architectural applications.

You might use it for:

  • Stair railings.
  • Public balconies.
  • Public buildings.
  • Interior partitions.

Hardware Cloth

Hardware cloth is an extremely versatile material that you can use for a variety of applications that require both strength and flexibility. Providing uniform, square openings that can be customized, hardware cloth is a popular and long-lasting material in many industrial facilities.

You may use it for:

  • Vent covers.
  • Utility enclosures.
  • Commercial garden fencing.

Hex Netting

Hex netting, also known as chicken wire, is another popular and versatile mesh design. You can fix and shape hex netting to almost any space, opening up many possibilities for netting size, coating and material. The hex pattern is particularly good for shock absorption and is both strong and lightweight.

Hex netting is frequently used for:

  • Landscaping.
  • Tree protection.
  • Animal enclosures.
