Description
Hexagon wire mesh for protective, agricultural and light construction uses.
Hexagon wire mesh, also known as hexagonal netting or chicken wire, is a lightweight, flexible woven mesh defined by its distinctive six-sided openings. Made from galvanized or coated steel wire, it is one of the most widely used general-purpose meshes for protective, agricultural and light construction applications. The twisted hexagonal weave gives the mesh a good balance of flexibility and strength for its weight, so it is easy to handle, cut, shape and fix around posts, frames and uneven surfaces. The open hexagonal pattern allows light, air and water to pass through while still providing a reliable barrier, making it suitable for enclosures, reinforcement and protection alike. Supplied mainly in convenient rolls across a range of mesh sizes and wire gauges, hexagon wire mesh is an economical, versatile product.
Hexagon wire mesh is popular because it delivers practical versatility at an economical price. Key advantages include: • Flexible hexagonal weave that is easy to roll, cut, bend and fix around posts, frames and irregular shapes. • Lightweight structure that lowers transport and handling costs and speeds up installation. • Galvanized or PVC-coated steel wire for dependable corrosion resistance and a longer outdoor service life. • Open hexagonal pattern that allows air, light and water flow while still forming an effective barrier. • Twisted construction that resists unravelling and maintains its shape under normal handling. The combination of flexibility, light weight and durability makes the mesh suitable for a very wide range of everyday and engineering uses.
Hexagon wire mesh is available in a wide range of customizable specifications to suit different protective, agricultural and construction needs. Typical hexagonal opening sizes range from around 13 mm up to 100 mm or more, measured across the mesh, allowing selection for fine enclosures or larger general-purpose barriers. Wire diameters commonly range from roughly 0.5 mm to 2.0 mm or above, depending on the required strength and mesh size. Materials include galvanized steel wire (before or after weaving) and PVC-coated wire for added corrosion protection and colour options. The mesh is normally supplied in rolls, with roll heights and lengths customizable to order. Reinforced selvedge edges and heavier border wires are available for added strength.
Hexagon wire mesh is used across agriculture, construction and many light industrial and domestic settings thanks to its flexibility and low cost. In agriculture and livestock, it serves as poultry and animal enclosures, fencing, garden protection, plant supports and pest barriers. In construction, the mesh is widely applied as a base for plastering and stucco, for reinforcing mortar and concrete in light work, and as protective netting on walls and ceilings. It is also used for thermal and acoustic insulation cladding, where it holds insulation material in place around pipes and equipment. Other common uses include fencing and partitions, gabion-style decorative work, craft and DIY projects, and general protection and screening. Builders, farmers, landscapers, distributors and industrial buyers all rely on it as a dependable everyday product.
