Galvanized hexagonal wire mesh will absorb dust, dirt and other impurities during use. Regular cleaning is an important part of maintenance. You can use a soft brush or a low-pressure water gun for cleaning. In the case of a lot of dust, use a soft brush to gently brush off the dust on the mesh surface. Be gentle to avoid scratching the galvanized layer. If it is in an outdoor environment and the dirt is stubborn, such as soil, you can use a low-pressure water gun to rinse. But be careful not to use too high a pressure gun to avoid damaging the mesh structure. Because too high water pressure may loosen the nodes of the hexagonal mesh or deform the wire, affecting its overall stability and protection function.
Check the galvanized hexagonal wire mesh regularly for damage. Carefully check whether the mesh is broken, deformed or the galvanized layer falls off. If a small amount of mesh is found to be broken, it can be repaired with galvanized wire of the same specification. Tightly wrap the two ends of the broken mesh with the repair wire to ensure a firm connection. For the part where the galvanized layer falls off, it should be handled in time. Once the galvanized layer falls off, the internal iron wire will be exposed to the air and easily rust, thus reducing the service life of the hexagonal mesh. Anti-rust paint can be used to apply to the parts where the galvanized layer falls off to prevent the iron wire from rusting.
Although galvanized hexagonal wire mesh has a certain anti-corrosion ability, it should be avoided as much as possible in a highly corrosive environment for a long time. If it is unavoidable, such as when used around some chemical companies, additional protective measures should be taken. A layer of more corrosion-resistant paint can be applied to the surface of the hexagonal mesh. This paint should have good compatibility with the galvanized layer and will not react chemically. At the same time, for the sources of corrosive gases or liquids that may be generated in the surrounding area, they should be isolated as much as possible to reduce their erosion of the hexagonal mesh.
In daily use, care should be taken to avoid physical impact on the galvanized hexagonal wire mesh. For example, in areas where hexagonal meshes are installed, the passage of large vehicles or heavy machinery should be restricted to prevent them from colliding with the hexagonal mesh and causing deformation. If it is a hexagonal mesh used to protect animals, pay attention to whether the animals will bite or climb on it, causing damage to the mesh. For some sharp objects that may come into contact with the hexagonal mesh, proper protection or removal should also be carried out to avoid scratching the mesh.
Regularly check whether the installation structure of the galvanized hexagonal wire mesh is firm. The installation structure includes brackets, hooks and other parts that fix the hexagonal mesh. If the bracket is loose, tighten the screws or replace the damaged parts in time. For the hook part, check whether it is deformed or broken to ensure that the hexagonal mesh can be firmly fixed in the installation position. Because if the installation structure is unstable, the hexagonal mesh is easily displaced or deformed when subjected to external forces, such as wind blowing, object collision, etc., affecting its normal use.
Humidity also affects the service life of galvanized hexagonal wire mesh. In a high humidity environment, the hexagonal mesh is more likely to rust. If it is used indoors, ensure that the indoor ventilation is good and the air humidity is reduced. The indoor ventilation conditions can be improved by installing ventilation equipment, such as exhaust fans. If it is outdoors, be careful to avoid the hexagonal mesh in a location where water accumulates. For example, during installation, it is necessary to ensure that there are good drainage facilities at the bottom of the hexagonal mesh so that rainwater can be drained away in time, reducing the soaking time of the hexagonal mesh by water, thereby reducing the possibility of rust.
Understand the reasonable service life of galvanized hexagonal wire mesh. Generally speaking, under normal maintenance, its service life can reach several years. However, as the use time increases, even with proper maintenance, its performance will gradually decline. Therefore, it is necessary to formulate an update plan based on actual use. When it is found that the protective function of the hexagonal mesh is significantly weakened, such as more mesh wire breaks and large-scale detachment of the galvanized layer, it should be replaced in time to ensure that it can continue to play an effective role.
