The main characteristics include:
- High tensile strength
- Flexible structure
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Open diamond pattern
- High visibility
- Good ventilation
- Long service life
- Customizable dimensions
Stainless steel knotted rope mesh is commonly used for zoo fencing, animal cages, aviaries, marine parks, garden protection, bridges, railings, and architectural applications.
