Welded & extruded mesh
Rigid where it counts.
Resistance-welded grids for structural and support duty, plus extruded plastic netting for light spacing and protection, and hybrids of both.
Where woven cloth flexes, welded mesh holds its shape. A weld at every wire crossing keeps apertures constant under load, which makes welded mesh the right base for support grids, guards, baskets and screens that must not deform.
Extruded plastic netting (polypropylene, polyethylene) plays the opposite role: light, flexible and chemically inert, it spaces, drains and protects, typically as a backing or separator inside filter assemblies and around delicate parts.
The interesting solutions combine the two worlds: a fine, fragile filter cloth mechanically reinforced on a welded grid carries far rougher service than either material alone. Averinox engineers and fabricates these composites in-house, from single screens to series production.
Applications
- Support grids and backing screens for finer media
- Machine guards, partitions and safety screens
- Baskets, trays and cylinders for process equipment
- Drainage, spacing and protection nets in filter builds
- Design applications: tables, lighting, cylindrical structures
Features & benefits
- Constant aperture under load: welded at every crossing
- Stainless and coated-steel programmes from stock
- In-house forming and welding into finished components
- Plastic netting range for chemical and weight-critical duty
- Reinforced composites: fine cloth + welded backing in one part

Frequently asked questions
Welded or woven mesh for a support grid?
Welded, almost always: the welded crossings keep the aperture stable under point loads. Woven crimped mesh competes only when you need finer openings than welding allows.
Can you weld stainless mesh to a frame we supply?
Yes. We regularly weld and finish customer frames, including stainless-to-stainless work with certificates under our ISO 9001 and VCA systems.
What mesh sizes and wire gauges can you supply welded?
From fine panels of roughly 6 × 6 mm up to heavy structural grids, in wire of 0.6 to 8 mm depending on mesh and duty. Panels, rolls, cylinders and complete welded assemblies all come from the same programme.
Metal grid or plastic netting inside a filter build?
Different jobs. Extruded PP/PE netting spaces, drains and protects at minimal weight and cost; welded metal takes over the moment load, temperature or rigidity matters. Most filter assemblies we build use both, each where it belongs.
Do you keep standard welded panels on stock?
Stainless and coated-steel programmes run from stock and are cut and formed in-house, so standard sizes move fast. Special meshes, alloys or composite screens (fine cloth on welded backing) are fabricated to order.
