What gauge is the welded wire mesh?Updated 5 months ago

The welded wire mesh fence material we include with our fencing systems was designed specifically for outdoor use with pets in mind. We do not rely on the notation of "gauge" for our wire mesh products. This is due to the fact that there is not a single standard scale for wire gauge, which means wire strands of the same gauge may have some variability depending on the standard scale that is being referenced. However, we can provide you dimensions of our wire strands.

The wire strands on our welded wire mesh have a diameter of 0.098" (about 2.5mm) including the UV-rated vinyl coating. Which means the wire is approximately the same thickness as a metal coat hanger. The grid size of the welded wire mesh is 1.7" x 1.7".

All of our wire mesh products are made of galvanized steel wire that is welded prior to the galvanization process, meaning the weld points are also galvanized for a longer-lasting material. Then, the wire mesh is vinyl-coated for added durability outdoors.
