Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
What is the difference between 304 and 316L stainless steel for insect screen?
304 is suitable for most indoor and outdoor applications. 316L offers enhanced corrosion resistance for marine or highly acidic environments. Both are available upon request. -
Can this screen be used for pet doors or large openings?
Yes, but for larger spans we recommend using a frame or additional support to prevent sagging. The 0.4mm wire provides good strength, but structural reinforcement may be needed for openings wider than 1.2m. -
Is the screen easy to cut and install?
Absolutely. It can be cut with ordinary scissors or tin snips. Installation typically involves rolling the screen into a frame, stapling, or using spline and rubber gasket for windows. -
Does this product meet ASTM standards for insect screening?
Yes, our screen is manufactured to comply with ASTM E2016, ensuring consistent mesh count, wire diameter, and open area. -
What packaging options do you offer for bulk orders?
We pack rolls in bubble wrap, then carton or wooden pallet for sea freight. Custom packaging (e.g., shrink wrap, labeled boxes) is available on request. -
Can I get a sample before placing a large order?
Certainly. We offer free samples (you pay shipping) or paid samples with full refund upon first order. Please contact us for details. -
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
Our MOQ is 100 rolls per specification, but we can negotiate smaller quantities for first-time trial orders. -
