ASPECT 53

This lightweight, budget-friendly intercrimp wire mesh maximizes stainless steel sturdiness, uses warp and weft of varying diameters for balanced rigidity, features a crimped surface with striking light reflectivity, and creates vivid color contrast when paired with copper-based alloys. It is ideal for space partitions, decorative ceilings, sunshade grilles and lamp covers, adding stylish charm to diverse settings.

Performance & Design Data

Solidity (1 - open area)46.1%
Geometric cut-off angle (short opening)43°
Railing infill check (100 mm / 4" sphere)Openings smaller than 100 mm (4")
Fire behaviourBare stainless steel is a non-combustible metal. Coated, plated or backed finishes: classification per project test report.
Corrosion guidance304 for interiors and protected exteriors; 316 / 316L for exterior, coastal and polluted environments.

Beyond this incidence angle, direct light and view through the short opening are blocked (louver effect).

Installation & Framing

Recommended fixingFramed panels: U-edging (captured edge), flat-bar clamp or angle frame. For wall and elevator cladding, clip or bond to an aluminum honeycomb or MDF backer.

How to Specify

  1. Pattern name, e.g. AXIS 81
  2. Material and grade, e.g. Stainless steel 316
  3. Finish, e.g. PVD Black Titanium or RAL 9005
  4. Panel width x height and quantity
  5. Opening direction (rectangular patterns)
  6. Edge or frame profile and size
  7. Indoor or exterior, and site location
  8. Target delivery date

Nominal values are calculated from pattern geometry for stainless steel and may vary by approx. 10-15%. Weights for other alloys are calculated from the stainless steel value. Wire diameter, opening, alloy, finish and panel size can be customized - please confirm final specifications with a physical sample.
