How to judge the quality of the architectural mesh?
Most of the architectural wire meshes are stainless steel, either SS 304, 316, or 316L. Thus it is very necessary that you need to ask the supplier if they will issue material certificate or not. As there are some small factories make what they call “stainless steel”, but actually it is not stainless steel.
The mesh looking is the most important except the material. As the architectural mesh is just for looking! There are certain terms you can follow up to judge the mesh looking, the wire should be shiny, no scratching part. The wire/rope should be straight and in even size.
The mesh structure should be tight. You can move the mesh wire by hand; the wire should be woven in a very tight strength. Thus the good quality architectural wire mesh should be in fixed mesh shape, the mesh directions and mesh shape should not change easily when you try to change them by hand.
