Low carbon steel wire mesh is the most common plain steel alloy
used in manufacturing industrial wire cloth screens due to its
tensile strength and high impact resistance. Primarily comprised of
iron, low carbon grades 1005, 1006, and 1008 are the most
frequently used, and contain small percentages of carbon
(0.0-0.1%), manganese (0.0-0.5% – which increases its strength),
phosphorous (0.0-0.04%), and sulfur (0.0-0.05%). Low abrasion
resistance and low corrosion resistance may limit usage in certain
applications, however a wide variety of special protective coatings
may be applied to improve resistance. Galvanizing (before or after)
is the most economical way to protect against corrosion.
Alternatively, a protective tin coating is often used on mud grade
screens (tinned mill). In addition, steel wire cloth can be
protected with epoxy coatings, PVC/ inyl coatings, and our
electrostatic application of powder coating. Some characteristics
of low carbon steel wire cloth which dictate its wide use are:
Low carbon plain steel alloy.
Relatively low cost and high strength material.
Magnetic in all conditions.
Not corrosion resistant; rusts in most atmospheric environments.
Protective coatings can be applied to improve resistance.
Can be cut, formed, and welded.

Material: Stainless Steel 304 or 316.
High tensile strength steel wire can prevent poultry from biting.
Hot dipped galvanized surface make hardware cloth excellent
corrosion and rust resistance.
Solid structure can defend predators from attacking poultry.
Extended outside or buried underground design can keep predators
out and poultry in.
Lightweight is easy to install and uninstall.
e. Hardware cloth has smooth surface, which there is no sharp edges
may hurt poultry.
Used combined with welded wire mesh panel or chain link fence panel
to improve the ety coefficient and protect poultry and animals.
