Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Fly Screen 304L Mesh 0.9mm Wire Diameter 16x14 Mesh High Airflow
Product Spotlights
Since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory has been a trusted manufacturer of stainless steel wire mesh products. Our Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Fly Screen 304L Mesh with 0.9mm wire diameter and 16x14 mesh count is engineered to deliver superior protection against insects while maintaining exceptional airflow. Whether for residential windows, commercial doors, or industrial ventilation systems, this screen offers a robust yet breathable barrier that lasts for years.
Crafted from premium 304L low-carbon stainless steel, this fly screen resists corrosion, rust, and pitting even in harsh coastal or humid environments. The 0.9mm wire diameter ensures high strength against impact and tearing, while the 16x14 mesh count provides a fine enough opening to block most flying insects without sacrificing ventilation. With an annual export value exceeding US$5 million, our products are trusted by clients across North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia.
Each roll is manufactured under strict quality control, with consistent wire tension and precise mesh alignment. The material is available in standard 30-meter rolls and can be cut to custom widths upon request. Below is a detailed specification table for your reference.

Product Features & Benefits
- Heavy-Duty Construction: The 0.9mm wire diameter is significantly thicker than standard fly screens (typically 0.3-0.5mm), offering superior resistance against pets, accidental impacts, and attempted break-ins. It is ideal for ground-floor windows and high-traffic doors.
- High Airflow Design: With a 16x14 mesh and ~58% open area, this screen allows natural breeze to pass through freely, reducing the need for mechanical ventilation. The balance between fine protection and air permeability is achieved through precise weaving.
- Corrosion & Rust Resistance: 304L stainless steel contains lower carbon content, minimizing carbide precipitation during welding and making it more resistant to intergranular corrosion. It performs exceptionally well in coastal areas, kitchens, and industrial environments with moisture or chemicals.
- Easy Installation & Maintenance: The mesh is flexible enough to be cut and fitted into standard frames, sliding doors, or magnetic screens. Cleaning requires only a soft brush and mild soap. No special tools needed.
- Long Service Life: Unlike aluminum or fiberglass screens that degrade under UV exposure, stainless steel mesh maintains its integrity for decades. It does not rot, warp, or become brittle.
- Customizable Dimensions: We offer roll widths from 0.6m to 1.5m, and can cut to specific lengths. Custom widths are available for bulk orders. Contact our sales team for non-standard sizes.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for residential windows, patio doors, commercial storefronts, RV vents, greenhouse vents, and industrial air intake openings. It can also be used as a security screen when combined with a sturdy frame.
Why Choose Our 304L Fly Screen?
Our factory has been dedicated to wire mesh manufacturing since 1998, with a deep understanding of material selection and weaving technology. The 304L grade is chosen specifically for applications requiring enhanced weldability and corrosion resistance. We use high-quality wire from reputable steel mills, ensuring consistent diameter and tensile strength.
Every roll undergoes a three-step inspection process: raw material check, in-process weaving monitoring, and final dimensional & visual inspection. This guarantees that the mesh count, wire diameter, and opening size meet your specifications. Our production capacity allows for both small trials and large container orders with fast turnaround.
Our export team is experienced in handling international shipments from ports such as Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Foshan. We work with reliable freight forwarders to ensure safe packaging and timely delivery. Main markets include North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, Oceania, and Africa.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: Can this fly screen be used for pet doors or high-traffic areas?
A: Yes, the 0.9mm wire diameter makes it much stronger than standard screens. It can withstand light scratching from pets and repeated opening/closing of doors. For extremely high abuse, we recommend a welded frame. -
Q: Does the 16x14 mesh allow enough airflow for ventilation?
A: Absolutely. With approximately 58% open area, this mesh provides comparable airflow to traditional 18x16 screens while using thicker wire for durability. It is ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and living areas that require natural ventilation. -
Q: Is this screen suitable for coastal areas with salt spray?
A: Yes, 304L stainless steel is more resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion than standard 304. It is a good choice for seaside homes, but for extremely harsh marine environments, we can recommend 316L upon request. -
Q: Can I get samples before placing a bulk order?
A: Certainly. We offer small sample rolls (e.g., 0.5m x 1m) for quality evaluation. The cost is reasonable and can be deducted from the final order. Please contact our sales team. -
Q: How is the screen packaged for export?
A: Each roll is wrapped in plastic film with an inner paper tube, then packed in sturdy poly bags or cartons depending on the quantity. For large orders, rolls are palletized and shrink-wrapped to prevent moisture and damage. -
Q: What is the typical lead time?
A: For standard sizes (0.9m width, 30m length), lead time is 7-10 days after order confirmation. For custom widths or large quantities, please allow 15-20 days. We can expedite if needed. -
Q: Can I cut the mesh to fit my window frame?
A: Yes, the mesh can be cut with heavy-duty scissors or tin snips. It is flexible enough to be installed in standard frames using spline and track systems. We also offer pre-cut sheets for specific sizes upon request. -
Q: What is the difference between 304 and 304L for this application?
A: 304L has lower carbon content, which reduces the risk of carbide precipitation during welding. For non-welded applications, the difference is minimal. However, if you plan to weld the mesh into a frame, 304L provides better corrosion resistance at the weld joints.
