Galvanized Insect Screen

18x14, 18x16, 20x20Mesh Galvanized Metal Screen

Tianjia Company offers a range of window screens, including the widely-used galvanized variety. These are known for their high quality and affordability. Galvanized insect screens are a type of screening used to keep insects out while allowing air and light to pass through.

Specifications

  • Material: These screens are made from a mesh of steel wires. The screens are typically made from galvanized steel. The galvanization process involves coating the steel with a protective layer of zinc to prevent rust and corrosion.
  • Mesh Size: The mesh size refers to the number of openings per linear inch. Common mesh sizes for insect screens range from 18×14, 18×16, to 20×20. The smaller the number, the larger the openings; a higher number indicates smaller openings that provide finer filtration against tiny insects.
  • Wire Diameter: The diameter of the wires used in the mesh is usually measured in millimeters or inches. Common wire diameters for insect screens are in the range of 0.7mm to 1.6mm. Thicker wires offer greater durability but may reduce visibility and airflow.
  • Roll Length: The screen is often sold in rolls, with typical lengths ranging from 25 feet to 100 feet or more. Common lengths for these rolls can vary, but they are typically available in lengths like 10 meters, 15 meters, 20 meters, or even longer. For commercial or industrial use, these screens may be available in even longer lengths to accommodate larger projects or installations.
  • Roll Width: The width of the rolls can vary, with common widths being 0.6 meters, 1 meters, and 1.5 meters.
  • Packaging: Galvanized insect screens are usually rolled and wrapped in plastic for protection during transport and storage. For larger orders, they might be packaged in cartons or on pallets.
  • Roll Style: The screen is usually rolled onto a paper core to maintain its shape and make it easier to unroll and cut during installation.

Features

  • Galvanization Process: The steel is coated with a layer of zinc. This process, known as galvanization, helps prevent rust and corrosion, extending the life of the mesh.
  • Insect Protection: As with other types of insect screens, the primary purpose is to prevent insects from entering a space while allowing for ventilation.
  • Durability: Galvanized mesh is known for its strength and durability. It withstands wear and tear better than some other materials, making it suitable for use in various climates and environments.

Applications

Galvanized insect screens are widely used in various settings due to their durability and effectiveness in providing insect protection. Here are some common applications:

  • Residential Buildings: Used in homes for windows, doors, and porches to keep insects out while allowing for ventilation. Ideal for regions with high insect activity.
  • Commercial Properties: Utilized in office buildings, restaurants, and retail stores to maintain a comfortable and insect-free environment for customers and employees.
  • Industrial Facilities: In factories and warehouses, these screens are used to provide ventilation while keeping out pests, which is crucial for maintaining hygiene and compliance with health regulations.
  • Agricultural Applications: Employed in greenhouses, barns, and livestock housing to protect plants and animals from insects, without restricting air flow.
  • Food Processing Plants: Used to prevent contamination by insects, an essential aspect of food safety and quality control.
