Plaster Mesh

Metal plastering steel sheet mesh, also known as exterior wall steel sheet mesh or plastering steel mesh, is a kind of metal mesh material commonly used for wall treatment in construction.

Material and Structure

Material：It mainly uses low - carbon steel plates, stainless steel plates, or aluminum plates as raw materials. Low - carbon steel plates have a relatively low cost. After anti - rust treatments such as galvanizing, they can meet the usage requirements of general construction environments. Stainless steel plates have excellent corrosion resistance and are suitable for harsh environments such as humid areas or places with corrosive gases. Aluminum plates are lightweight and have strong corrosion resistance, making installation relatively convenient.

Structure：Through special mechanical stamping and stretching processes, the metal plates are processed into a mesh structure in the shape of diamonds or hexagons. The mesh holes are uniform in size, and the mesh surface is flat. The frame part is folded or reinforced to enhance the overall strength and stability of the steel sheet mesh, preventing it from deforming during wall construction.

Functions and Uses

Enhancing Wall Adhesion：During wall plastering construction, the metal plastering steel sheet mesh can effectively increase the friction between the plastering layer and the wall base layer, allowing the plastering layer to adhere to the wall better. This prevents quality problems such as hollowing and falling off of the plastering layer, thereby improving the overall quality and durability of the wall.

Preventing Wall Cracks：Due to factors such as temperature changes and foundation settlement during the use of buildings, walls are prone to cracking. The steel sheet mesh can disperse the stress on the wall, playing a buffering role and effectively reducing the occurrence of cracks, improving the crack resistance of the wall.

Assisting in Thermal Insulation：In some exterior wall thermal insulation constructions, the metal plastering steel sheet mesh can serve as a fixed support structure for thermal insulation materials. Cooperating with materials such as thermal insulation boards, it makes the thermal insulation system more secure and improves the thermal insulation effect of the building.

Decorative Function：In some buildings with an industrial or modern style, the metal plastering steel sheet mesh after surface treatment (such as spraying, baking varnish, etc.) can be directly used as a wall decoration material, showing a unique metal texture and line beauty, and adding to the artistic atmosphere of the building.

Advantages and Features

High Strength：The metal material itself has high strength. The processed steel sheet mesh can withstand certain external impacts, ensuring stability during wall construction and use.

Convenient Installation：The steel sheet mesh can be cut according to the size of the wall and fixed to the wall by nails, screws, or welding. The installation process is simple and fast, effectively shortening the construction period.

Good Corrosion Resistance：The steel sheet mesh treated with anti - rust and anti - corrosion measures can be used for a long time in different environmental conditions without being corroded, reducing the later maintenance cost.

Good Air Permeability：The mesh structure gives the wall a certain degree of air permeability, which helps the moisture inside the wall to dissipate and avoids problems such as wall mildew and falling off caused by moisture accumulation.
