Extra-Rigid Aluminum Wire Cloth
Also known as space cloth, wires are crimped where they intersect to maintain an accurate opening size when used with heavy materials. The crimping process also adds strength and rigidity. This wire cloth is often used as barriers, shields, dividers, and guards.
Made of aluminum, it is lightweight and has good corrosion resistance.

Insect Screening
Keep bugs out of your space without blocking airflow or light. When choosing a screen, there are two factors that affect airflow and visibility: mesh size and wire diameter. The higher the mesh size, the smaller the holes. The thicker the wire diameter, the sturdier and tougher the screen. 16 × 18 mesh size with a 0.11" wire diameter is the most common combination—it balances good visibility and airflow with durability.
These screens are made with materials that won’t corrode when exposed to weather. Metal screens are stronger and more durable than fiberglass screens. They also hold up better against extreme temperatures. The wires won’t stretch, sag, or tear over time and have good visibility. Though, they’re less forgiving during installation compared to fiberglass screens, so they can get dented.
