Description of crimped wire mesh
Pre-crimping wire enables the mesh to lock together, creating a
tight weave with good rigidity and pleasing aesthetics. It is used
extensively in architectural applications, as infill panels, cages
and decoration. It is also used in acoustics, filtration, bridge
guards, aerospace parts, rodent control, and truck grills.
Weave type of crimped wire mesh:
- Lock Crimp: Made to hold accurate openings. Each intersection is
formed with straight sections of fill wires woven within straight
sections of warp wires. Fill wires are woven in an alternating
pattern, top and bottom.
- Double Crimp: Square pattern wire cloth using warp and fill wires
of equal size. Warp wires pass over and under fill wires in an
alternating pattern at adjacent intersections.
- Intercrimp: Crimped warp wires filled at every other crimp with
fill wires. Provides superior rigidity and greater stability.
Popular for screens and architectural uses.
- Flat Top: All crimping is offset to one side producing a single
plan on the top which allows for the smooth flow of materials over
the surface.

Locked crimped wire meshes are made by weaving pre-locked wires.
There are two types of locked crimped wire mesh: single locked
crimped mesh, where the wires cross over alternately at the points
of intersection and a section of non-crimped wire, and double
locked crimped mesh, where the wires cross over at each crimping.
Thanks to its particular stiffness, this kind of mesh enables
greater precision to be maintained, even with wide mesh openings.
Simple locked crimped meshes enable the production of panels with a
particularly smooth surface.
