358 Mesh Panels: A Detailed Overview

Also known as "wire walls," 358 mesh panels provide the highest degree of security with excellent see-through visibility. These panels feature a toe and finger-proof profile, with spacing specifications of 4mm x 75mm x 12.5mm, preventing fingers and toes from passing through. Our anti-climb fence is perfect for guarded systems due to its exclusive thickness of anti-cutting materials, making the framework robust, resistant, and difficult to uninstall. Clients can enjoy secured protection and peace of mind with our high-quality anti-climb fence supply.

What is 358 Mesh?

358 Mesh, also known as "prison mesh" or "anti-climb mesh," is a high-security welded mesh panel that provides a significant level of protection. The name "358" comes from its measurement specifications: 3 inches by 0.5 inches (approximately 76.2mm x 12.7mm), with a wire thickness of 8 gauge (4mm).

Welding 358 Mesh: Key Considerations for Welders

As a welder working with 358 mesh, also known as "prison mesh" or "anti-climb mesh," it's crucial to understand and adhere to specific practices to ensure the quality and effectiveness of the weld. Here are key considerations to keep in mind:

1. Preparation

• Material Inspection: Ensure the steel wire is free from rust, oil, and other contaminants that could affect the welding process.
• Mesh Alignment: Properly align the mesh panels to ensure uniformity and precision during welding. Misalignment can lead to weak points and reduce the overall strength of the fence.

2. Welding Technique

• Consistency: Maintain a consistent welding pattern to ensure each joint is equally strong. Inconsistent welding can create weak spots that compromise the fence's integrity.
• Heat Settings: Use appropriate heat settings based on the wire diameter (typically 4mm for 358 mesh). Too much heat can cause warping, while too little can result in weak welds.
• Welding Speed: Control your welding speed to ensure proper penetration without burning through the wire. Practice to find the optimal speed that balances penetration and weld quality.

3. Safety Precautions

• Protective Gear: Always wear appropriate protective gear, including welding helmets, gloves, and aprons, to safeguard against sparks and heat.
• Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation in the welding area to avoid inhaling fumes, which can be hazardous to your health.

4. Quality Control

• Visual Inspection: After welding, perform a thorough visual inspection of each joint to ensure there are no cracks, gaps, or inconsistencies.
• Strength Testing: Test the welded joints for strength and durability. This can involve applying pressure to ensure the welds hold up under stress.

5. Post-Welding Treatment

• Cleaning: Clean the welded joints to remove any slag or residue. This helps in preparing the mesh for any additional treatments like galvanizing or powder coating.
• Surface Treatment: Apply appropriate surface treatments such as hot-dip galvanizing, powder coating, or PVC coating to enhance the anti-corrosion properties of the 358 mesh.

6. Common Issues and Troubleshooting

• Warping: If the mesh panels warp during welding, check the heat settings and adjust accordingly. Warping often occurs due to excessive heat or improper alignment.
• Incomplete Welds: Ensure your welding technique and speed are adequate to avoid incomplete welds. Re-weld any joints that do not meet the required standards.

7. Documentation and Reporting

• Record Keeping: Maintain detailed records of the welding process, including settings, techniques used, and any issues encountered. This documentation can help in troubleshooting and improving future welds.
• Feedback: Communicate with your team and supervisors about any challenges or suggestions for improving the welding process.
