7. FAQ
Q: What is the main advantage of aluminium wire mesh over stainless steel?
A: The primary advantages are its lighter weight and inherent corrosion resistance without the need for chromium (like stainless steel). It is also non-magnetic and generally more cost-effective for applications where the extreme strength of stainless steel is not required.
Q: Can your aluminium mesh be used for outdoor architectural cladding?
A: Absolutely. For long-term exterior use, we recommend specifying an anodized or powder-coated finish. This significantly enhances the mesh's resistance to weathering, UV radiation, and atmospheric pollutants, ensuring its aesthetic and structural integrity for decades.
Q: How do I determine the right mesh count and wire diameter for my filtration needs?
A: The selection depends on the size of particles you need to filter or retain. A higher mesh count with a finer wire diameter will filter smaller particles but may reduce flow rate. Our technical sales team can assist you in selecting the optimal specification based on your media and desired outcome.
Q: Do you offer custom cutting and fabrication services?
A: Yes, we provide value-added services including precision cutting to size, rolling, bending, and frame fabrication. Send us your drawings or specifications for a prompt quote.
Q: What are your standard packaging and lead times?
A: Standard products are typically packaged on sturdy cardboard cores and wrapped in protective plastic, shipped on wooden pallets. Lead times vary by quantity and specification; standard items can often be shipped within 7-10 working days. We provide clear timelines with every quotation.
