Roof Safety Mesh

Stainless steel is the optimum solution for roof safety mesh for harsh environments.
Stainless steel roof safety mesh provides fall protection during construction and maintenance for the life of the building.
Stainless steel is the solution to the corrosion of roof safety mesh and will cope with the Australian environment for the life of the building. Galvanised
products do corrode and cannot provide adequate protection. Don’t take a short cut when you know there is a safer and longer lasting alternative.
Benefits of stainless steel;
– Corrosion resistant, it is ideal for corrosive environments and will not rust
– Life cycle costing, no replacement costing due to stainless steel long life attributes
– Strong, the tensile strength of our wire is a minimum 600Mpa exceeding the requirement of 450Mpa
– Temperature resistant
Roof safety mesh is manufactured from resistance welded stainless steel wire;
– Wire diameter 2mm
– Mesh longitudinal 150mm
– Mesh transverse 300mm
– Roll width 1800mm
– Roll length 50m
