| Mesh (mm) | Wire (mm) | Approx. weight (kg/m²) | Typical use |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 × 100 | 4 | 1.97 | Screeds, plaster, crack control |
| 100 × 100 | 6 | 4.44 | Floor slabs, precast panels |
| 150 × 150 | 6 | 2.96 | Pavements, prefab walls |
| 150 × 150 | 8 | 5.26 | Bridge decks, industrial floors |
| 200 × 200 | 8 | 3.95 | Road beds, tunnel linings |
| 200 × 200 | 10 | 6.17 | Heavy slabs, hydel works |
Weights are for plain wire at 7.85 kg/dm³; ribbed wire is similar. Other combinations up to 16 mm wire are made to order.
Prefab walls are factory assembled based on your building plans, and enable your construction project to begin regardless of the weather.
Road construction time is reduced considerably when welded wire fabric is used instead of loose rebar in RCC pavements.
1. What is reinforcement mesh?
Reinforcement mesh (welded wire fabric) is a grid of steel wires welded at every intersection and used in place of loose rebar in concrete slabs, walls, pavements and precast elements. It is made to IS 1566 and spreads load evenly, controls cracking and cuts site labour because it is laid as sheets, not tied bar by bar.
2. What sizes does SK Weldedmesh make?
Wire diameters from 3 mm to 16 mm, plain or ribbed (TMT / cold-rolled ribbed), with any mesh spacing up to non-standard engineering patterns. Sheets up to 4 m × 6 m, including free overhangs for lapping. Common sizes are 100 × 100, 150 × 150 and 200 × 200 mm spacing in 5, 6, 8 and 10 mm wire.
3. Ribbed or plain wire: which should I specify?
Ribbed (TMT / CRR) wire gives better bond with concrete and is used for structural slabs, precast walls and tunnel linings. Plain wire is used for crack control in pavements, screeds and plaster work. Both are available to IS 1566; tell us the drawing requirement and we will match it.
4. Which standard applies and do you give test certificates?
Our mesh conforms to IS 1566 (hard-drawn steel wire fabric for concrete reinforcement) and IS 4948 (welded steel wire fabric). Every supply comes with mill test certificates for the wire and weld-shear test reports from our in-house lab; third-party NABL test reports are available on request.
5. Where is welded reinforcement mesh used?
Precast and prefab walls, Mivan and aluminium-formwork housing, tunnel linings, bridge decks and approach slabs, road pavements and resurfacing, hydel and industrial floors, and arches and domes where bending loose bars is impractical.
6. What is the lead time and minimum order?
Standard sheets ship within 7 to 10 days; project quantities are scheduled against your pour programme. There is no minimum for standard sizes; non-standard engineering mesh is quoted per drawing.
7. Who are the reinforcement mesh manufacturers in Kolkata and eastern India?
SK Weldedmesh has manufactured welded reinforcement mesh in Kolkata for over 20 years and supplies infrastructure contractors across eastern, central and north-eastern India. Use the mesh weight calculator on our home page to estimate tonnage, or send the bar-bending schedule for a quotation.
It is pleasure working with well informed team of S.K.Weldedmesh Pvt. Ltd.,their expertise has brought results to our projects. They understand the customer’s requirements and priorities. A quality product is always appreciated in our field of work.
For years now we have trusted SK Welded products for a range of construction projects I have worked on.
