Hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh – Best (25+ Specs)

Hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh, also called flexible stainless steel cable mesh, is produced from high quality stainless steel wire cable and divided into ferrule type and inter-woven type according to the production craft. Hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh is mainly used for wild zoos, large animal enclosures, aviaries, garden green walls, handrail infill and safety mesh.

Hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh is made from SUS304, SUS316 or SUS316L wire ropes in 7×7 and 7×19 strand constructions. The safety nets are usually manufactured from SUS/AISI 316, which is the preferred marine grade stainless steel for offshore or other harsh environments because of its excellent resistance to pitting corrosion. The high quality stainless steel safety net catches objects when they accidentally fall from platforms or work floors and is suitable for both temporary installations and permanent protection at height.

Advantages of stainless steel knotted (inter-woven) rope mesh vs ferrule rope mesh

• More flexible and formable
  Knotted rope mesh is fully hand-woven without rigid ferrules, so it is softer and more flexible. It can be tensioned around curves, cones, cylinders and irregular 3D structures more easily than ferrule mesh.

• Smoother, more animal-friendly surface
  There are no metal ferrules on the surface, only crossed cables, so the contact surface is smoother. This reduces the risk of fur, feathers, skin or wings being scratched – ideal for primates, big cats, birds and sensitive species.

• Higher transparency and cleaner appearance
  Without ferrules, the visual “nodes” are thinner. This makes knotted rope mesh more transparent and visually lighter, giving better viewing for zoo visitors, balconies, façades and balustrades.

• Lighter weight per square metre
  Because there are no additional ferrules, knotted mesh usually weighs less than ferrule mesh of the same cable diameter and aperture, which can reduce structure load and shipping cost.

• Easier on-site adjustment
  Knotted rope mesh can be cut and slightly adjusted on site with basic tools. Ferrule mesh normally requires more precise prefabrication and may need special tools if panels are modified.

• Good for high-movement areas
  The fully flexible, hand-woven structure absorbs impact and repeated movement very well, which is useful for active animals (monkeys, big cats) and for areas where people may lean or push against the mesh (walkways, viewing platforms).

• Consistent stainless steel material
  In knotted mesh, the whole structure is made only from stainless steel cable. Ferrule mesh often uses different ferrule materials (e.g. copper or stainless ferrules), whereas knotted mesh keeps a uniform material look and corrosion behaviour.

SS rope mesh advantages

1. Balustrades & railings

Hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh provides safety without obstructing views, which is ideal for staircases, balconies and terraces, and the flexible mesh design is easy to use on curved or custom shaped railings.

2. Security fencing & barriers

It is used in high security areas such as prisons, military zones and restricted sites because the stainless steel rope mesh is difficult to cut or climb and greatly enhances perimeter security.

3. Aviaries & bird cages

The knotless hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh prevents bird injuries because there are no sharp edges, and the corrosion resistance makes it perfect for humid and outdoor aviary environments.

4. Fall protection & safety nets

It is widely used on construction sites, bridges and high-rise buildings to prevent falls, and the high tensile strength of the stainless steel rope mesh ensures reliable worker safety.

SS rope mesh applications

Cable rope mesh is very flexible and its width and length can be modified, so hand-woven stainless steel rope mesh is widely used as slope protection rope mesh, zoo mesh, green wall rope mesh, balustrade mesh, safety rope mesh, suspension bridge railing mesh and anti-theft backpack protector.
