Why Choose Our Stainless Steel Insect Screen?
- Long Lifespan – Unlike fiberglass or aluminum screens, stainless steel does not sag, tear, or corrode. It can last 10–15 years or more with proper care.
- Enhanced Security – The sturdy 0.5mm wire provides a degree of physical resistance, making it harder for intruders to cut through compared to softer materials.
- Eco-Friendly – Stainless steel is 100% recyclable, supporting sustainable building practices.
- Customizable Options – We offer different grades (304/316), mesh sizes, and rolls to fit your specific window dimensions and budget.
- Cost-Effective – While the initial investment may be slightly higher than standard screens, the lack of replacement and maintenance costs saves money over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between 18x16 mesh and other mesh sizes?
A: 18x16 mesh is a medium-density screen that blocks most flying insects while allowing good airflow and visibility. Finer mesh (e.g., 20x20) may block tiny insects like no-see-ums but reduces light and airflow. Coarser mesh (e.g., 14x14) is less effective for small insects. -
Q: Can I install this screen myself?
A: Yes, the screen can be cut to size and fitted into standard window frames using spline, frame, or adhesive methods. Basic DIY tools are sufficient. We also provide installation guidelines upon request. -
Q: Is this screen suitable for coastal areas with salt spray?
A: Our standard 304 stainless steel offers good corrosion resistance, but for extremely harsh coastal environments, we recommend 316 stainless steel (marine grade) which is available on request. -
Q: How do I clean the screen?
A: Use a soft brush or vacuum to remove dust, then wipe with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface. The stainless steel will not rust or discolor. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard rolls, the MOQ is typically 100 pieces. For custom sizes or grades, please contact us to discuss your requirements. -
Q: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer samples (usually A4 size or a small roll) for a nominal fee plus shipping. The sample fee is refundable for bulk orders. -
Q: Does the screen have any coating or finish?
A: No, it is uncoated natural stainless steel. This avoids issues with peeling paint or chemicals. The metallic finish is clean and neutral, blending with most window frames. -
Q: How long does shipping usually take?
A: For standard rolls, production takes about 15–20 working days. Shipping time depends on destination and mode (sea or air). We ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, or Foshan.
