Hexagonal Wire Mesh as Facing for Insulation Blanket

In conditions of heat, cold or vibration involved, such as boiler tank, pipelines, vessel, reactors, building architecture and other places, mineral fiber and rock wool blanket shall be applied over their surfaces. The blankets shall be secured with metal mesh, tie-wires and metal stitching in order to ensure the blanket will remain in its specific position. With a variety of options of metal mesh mechanically applied to one or both machine surfaces, hexagonal shaped woven netting is provided here.

Two types of hexagonal shaped woven netting are mainly supplied: galvanized wire mesh and stainless steel wire mesh. Both are manufactured into 1 in. (25 mm) sized mesh by No. 22 to 28 gauge wire. We also provide stitching and tie wires of specific specification used for securement with wire mesh facing.

Specification of hexagonal metal mesh blanket facing:

• Material:
  • Galvanized steel wire - For most applications up to 1200 °F.
  • 304 Stainless Steel - For most applications up to 1200 °F.
  • 430 Stainless Steel - More economical in applications up to 1000 °F.
  • Inconel 600 - In applications up to 2300 °F.
• Wire gauge:
  • No. 20 to 22 gauge galvanized steel wire (0.88 to 0.73 mm diameter).
  • No. 20 to 22 gauge 304 stainless nonferrous steel wire (0.82 to 0.64 mm diameter).
  • No. 20 to 22 gauge 430 stainless and inconel wire.
• Wire mesh opening size:
  • 1 in. (25 mm) sized hexagonal wire mesh opening.
  • 20 mm sized hexagonal wire mesh opening.
• Specification of tie wire and stitching wire:
  • Minimum diameter No. 28 gauge (0.32 mm) for 300 series alloy, non-ferrous stainless steel tie wire or stitching. The spacing should be no greater than 12 in. (305 mm) apart passing vertically through the blanket. Spacing (attachment pattern) for vertical vertical steel tie wires and stitching must include rows within 2 in. (51 mm) from all edges of the blanket.
  • Minimum diameter No. 28 gauge (0.41 mm) for galvanized steel tie wire or stitching.
  • Other wire mesh types are available under request.

Application:

• It is used in one or both surfaces of mineral fiber or rock wool blanket in where required cold, thermal insulation and vibration are involved.
• It is used for power plants, heaters, boilers, reactors, refineries gas crackers, expansion joints, large equipment.
• It can be used for vessels, ducting system insulation.
• It is used in boiler drum, steam piping, exhaust, turbines, oil tanks and chimneys.

Hexagonal wire netting is manufactured from steel wire which is then galvanized with a hot-dipped zinc coating that provides the metal with a corrosion-resistant surface. If you opt for the PVC-coated version, your wire is galvanized and then coated with the PVC layer which offers added protection and weatherproofing.
We offer a range of different lengths, heights, holes sizes and wire thicknesses throughout our chicken wire range. We also offer the majority of our roll sizes in the green PVC coated finish
