PVC Coated Wire Mesh: Durable, Rust-Resistant, Custom Sizes

PVC Coated Welded Wire Mesh: field notes, specs, and honest buying advice

If you’ve worked a muddy jobsite in spring, you already know why pvc coated wire mesh keeps showing up on purchase orders. It’s tough, quiet to handle, and—surprisingly—ages better than bare galvanized in splash zones. Yiszhe’s line is produced in Business building Tongxiang, Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province, which has become a pretty lively hub for wire products.

What’s moving the market

Two things: color-coded safety fencing on construction sites and longer service life under urban pollution. Contractors tell me they want fewer callbacks. Coated meshes deliver—less rust bleed, nicer finish, and fewer worker complaints about sharp edges. To be honest, pricing has crept up, but not enough to cancel the durability benefit.

Core specifications (real-world, not lab fairy tales)

Product	PVC Coated Welded Wire Mesh
Wire core	Low-carbon steel wire (Q195), zinc-coated prior to PVC
Mesh openings	12.7×12.7 mm to 50×100 mm (custom on request)
Wire diameter (core + coat)	Core 1.2–3.0 mm; PVC coat ≈0.3–1.0 mm
Roll size / panels	Rolls 0.9–1.8 m × 25 m; panels 1.8×2.4 m (±)
Colors	Green RAL6005, Black RAL9005, White, others
Tensile strength	≈380–550 MPa (wire core)
Corrosion testing	Neutral salt spray 500–1,000 h typical (ASTM B117 / ISO 9227)
Standards reference	ASTM A641 (wire), EN 10245-2 (PVC coat), EN 10223-4

How it’s made (and checked)

Material: low-carbon steel drawn wire, zinc-coated (hot-dip or electro per project spec).
Welding: automatic resistance welding; weld shear tests spot check each batch.
Coating: PVC extrusion or fluidized-bed dip; adhesion per ASTM D3359 (target 4B–5B).
QC: aperture tolerance ±2 mm, 90° bend test no cracking, salt spray per ISO 9227.
Service life: ≈8–15 years outdoors; coastal or chemical zones may vary.

Where it works best

Construction perimeters, HVAC guards, warehouse cages, animal enclosures, garden/agri trellising, and light filtration screens. Many customers say the coated finish is less “industrial” looking—handy where aesthetics matter.

Quick case notes

Coastal warehouse fence: Green panels, 2.1 m high. After 18 months, minimal chalking; no visible rust at tie points. Crew liked the quieter handling vs bare metal.

Poultry farm retrofit: 25×25 mm mesh to keep out small predators. Easy hose-down; coating resisted ammonia splash better than expected.

Vendor snapshot (from recent tenders)

Vendor	MOQ	Lead time	Coat thickness	Certs
Yiszhe (Hebei)	≈200 rolls	10–20 days	0.5–1.0 mm	ISO 9001; RoHS/REACH coat
Vendor A	300 rolls	20–30 days	0.4–0.8 mm	ISO 9001
Vendor B	100 rolls	15–25 days	0.3–0.6 mm	—

Table values are indicative; real-world use may vary by batch and spec.

Customization and ordering tips

Pick aperture for target pest/particle size; smaller isn’t always better—airflow matters.
Ask for salt-spray data and adhesion grade with your PI, not after shipment.
For coastal jobs, specify thicker PVC and higher zinc class on the core wire.

Feedback has been blunt but useful: installers like the consistent flatness, and logistics teams say rolls stack cleanly on standard pallets. I guess that’s the unglamorous stuff that saves hours.

Bottom line: for sites that chew up bare mesh, pvc coated wire mesh is a calm, durable fix. If you need color, corrosion resistance, and fewer call-backs, pvc coated wire mesh is likely the sensible spec.
