At Lawrence Sintered Metals, we offer a variety of different metal and alloy options to our clients interested in purchasing metal screens. Some of our most popular metals include stainless steel, copper, and aluminum.
What makes aluminum a good metal for wire mesh?
That’s easy. Aluminum is a highly abundant metal that pairs low density with a high amount of strength. It also offers good malleability, which makes it ideal of weaving into metal screens. It’s also corrosion resistant, which means it stands up well outside and can be used for window screens, fencing, and even outdoor art installations. Aluminum is even easy to recycle, so you can theoretically use it again for a different purpose.
For all these reasons, we often recommend aluminum to clients depending on what type of project they are working on. Not sure what type of metal is best for you? Contact us today for a consultation.
