Hardware cloth is a common metal mesh product, which is made of a certain number of metal wires connected by electric welding process.Hardware cloth has high strength and stiffness, as well as certain toughness and plasticity, so it is widely used in various fields.The main features of hardware cloth are uniform mesh, flat mesh surface, solid welding and high tensile strength. According to different applications, the mesh size, wire diameter thickness and mesh surface size and other parameters of hardware cloth will be different. Generally speaking, the smaller the mesh size of hardware cloth, the higher its tensile strength, but the toughness will be reduced accordingly.
The production process of hardware cloth mainly includes the steps of raw material selection, wire processing, mesh production and welding. In the selection of raw materials, generally choose high quality low carbon steel or stainless steel wire as raw materials to ensure the quality and performance of hardware cloth. The processing of wire includes drawing, pickling, galvanizing and other processes to improve the surface quality and corrosion resistance of the wire. The fabrication of mesh includes processes such as cutting, punching, and weaving to meet the needs of different mesh sizes and shapes. Welding, on the other hand, is the process of connecting metal wires into a mesh structure through the electric welding process to ensure the firmness and stability of the mesh.
Hardware cloth has a wide range of applications and can be used in various fields such as construction, bridges, tunnels, aquaculture, highway enclosure, community greening and so on. In the field of breeding, the hardware cloth can be used as a fence for animal cages, or used as a support net for growing vegetables.
With the continuous development and innovation of science and technology, the application fields of hardware cloth will be more extensive, and its function and performance will be further improved. As an important metal mesh product, Hardware Cloth will continue to play its advantages and make greater contribution to the progress and development of human society.
