Description
Brick mesh is primarily used to enhance the stability of masonry structures and is commonly found in construction. It is embedded in masonry gaps or surfaces to improve the wall's crack resistance, integrity, and earthquake resistance. Brick mesh can be considered a general term for a range of mesh types, with different types offering distinct characteristics and applications.
Galvanized welded wire mesh: It offers strong welds, a smooth mesh surface, and a zinc coating that prevents rust, making it suitable for interior brick walls.
Stainless steel woven mesh: Its main features are high strength and corrosion resistance, making it suitable for exterior wall construction in coastal areas.
Plastic-coated mesh: Its plastic coating enhances rust resistance and is suitable for damp walls such as bathrooms and kitchens.
How do we choose the right brick mesh for different wall types?
For example, some classical European buildings typically have thick walls constructed with natural stone or antique bricks. Over time, these walls can experience foundation settlement and cracks due to temperature fluctuations. In these cases, hot-dip galvanized welded wire mesh should be preferred. Mesh sizes range from 12.7×12.7mm to 25×25mm. Embedded into the wall, one layer is laid every 3-5 brick layers, extending to the wall corners to strengthen the overall connection. For aesthetics, completely embedded into the masonry gaps or plaster layers, leaving them exposed, will not detract from the classical style while still achieving a positive effect. When using brick mesh on lightweight walls, where lightweight materials are used, the main concern is that it detracts from the "cleanliness" of the minimalist style. Cold-dip galvanized welded wire mesh is an alternative, offering both lightness and cost-effectiveness. It harmonizes beautifully with the minimalist style's minimalist lines.
Walls exist everywhere, and wherever brick mesh is present, it is used. A reminder: if used in humid environments, hot-dip galvanizing is essential. Let's take exterior walls in rainy areas as an example. The hot-dip galvanizing process involves immersing steel wire in molten zinc, creating a zinc layer ≥65μm thick. This effectively isolates the wire from moisture and protects the substrate through sacrificial anodes, extending its service life. While hot-dip galvanized brick mesh costs 20%-30% more than cold-dip galvanizing, it can extend its service life by 2-3 times, making it highly cost-effective.
Why must stainless steel brick mesh be made of stainless steel?
Regular users know that stainless steel brick mesh is the most expensive, leading many to opt for hot-dip galvanizing instead of stainless steel. So, in which applications is stainless steel essential?
• Resisting chemical corrosion: Chloride ions in coastal air can rapidly corrode ordinary metals, significantly shortening their service life.
• Food processing: The acidic and alkaline gases, high humidity, and cleaning agents in chemical processing plants can corrode ordinary metals. Therefore, stainless steel is recommended for any food-related industry.
For home use, stainless steel brick mesh is also recommended to avoid frequent replacements. A single application ensures reliable use.
