With many years experience in the production of reinforcing mesh, Jinsheng is a leading supplier of customised reinforcing products to most industry sectors. Reinforcing mesh has a wide variety of uses, ranging from the ordinary household to heavy industry.
In many construction applications such as reinforcing, a welded mesh fabric is preferred to rebar, particularly if Ferro-Fabrik is used. Ferro-Fabrik is a top quality product conforming to SANS 1024/2006. It has greater features and strengths than rebar (minimum 485Mpa) allowing a material saving of 8%, and allows for time saving when fixing on site.
Features of reinforcing mesh
- The unique deformed wire pattern (curry pattern) offers superior bonding, improved stress distribution and crack-width control
- Ferro-Fabric is available in a wide range of diameters and apertures. The products can be bent to shape as required
- Manufactured from hard drawn wire (smooth) and cold rolled wire (deformed)
- All intersections are resistant-welded thereby not reducing the tensile strength of the wires
- Mesh has an average shear strength equal to 80% of the wire strength
- The wire used has physical properties which are rigidly controlled to produce mesh with maximum weld strength combined with ductility
- The steel specifications allow for cold rolled wire with a minimum ultimate tensile strength of 510Mpa and a high resistance to fatigue
- Mesh is available in black (pre-galvanised) and galvanised sheets or rolls
- Also available on request: plastic coated and hot dipped (galvanised) mesh
