Low Carbon Steel Wire Mesh – Strength, Versatility & Performance
Ambani Metals, a leading Low Carbon Steel Wire Mesh Manufacturer and Supplier, offers high-performance wire mesh solutions trusted across industries for their strength, durability, and versatility. Low carbon steel wire mesh is the most widely used material for industrial wire cloth screens due to its excellent tensile strength and impact resistance. Composed primarily of iron, common low carbon grades such as 1005, 1006, and 1008 include small percentages of carbon (0.0–0.1%), manganese (0.0–0.5%), phosphorous (0.0–0.04%), and sulfur (0.0–0.05%), each contributing to its mechanical performance.
Though it offers low abrasion and corrosion resistance in its raw form, low carbon steel wire mesh remains a top choice due to its affordability and ease of fabrication. As an experienced Low Carbon Steel Wire Mesh Supplier, Ambani Metals enhances durability through protective coatings such as pre or post-galvanizing, a highly economical corrosion control method. For specific applications like mud-grade screens, tinned mill (protective tin coating) is used.

FAQs
Low carbon steel wire mesh is a welded or woven mesh made from mild steel (low carbon steel), typically containing 0.05–0.25% carbon. It is known for its high tensile strength, good formability, and cost-effectiveness. It is commonly used in industrial, construction, filtration, and security applications.
The most commonly used grades for low carbon steel wire mesh include 1005, 1006, 1008, and 1018. These grades offer a good balance of ductility, weldability, and strength, making them ideal for forming and fabrication.
Yes. Low carbon steel wire mesh is highly workable — it can be easily cut, bent, welded, or formed using standard tools. This makes it suitable for custom fabrication.
Yes, low carbon steel is ferromagnetic and will retain magnetic properties in all conditions.
It can be used outdoors only with proper protective coatings like galvanizing or powder coating to prevent rusting due to exposure to moisture and air.
