Oyster mesh

Oyster mesh, by the metre or the roll.

Extruded plastic mesh 915mm wide in four apertures, cut to the length you need or supplied as a full 30 metre roll. Held in stock in St Marys.

Apertures

Four hole sizes, all 915mm wide, supplied per metre or as a 30 metre roll. The aperture is what decides what passes through and how stiff the mesh sits — smaller holes hold more back and drape more softly, larger holes drain and flow better.

Specifications

The manufacturer's figures for each mesh. Values are typical measurements; aperture and weight carry a tolerance of about 8%.

Two ways to buy

By the metre

Cut off the roll to whatever length you need, for a repair, a one-off job or a small run. Part rolls are pick up only, from the store at St Marys.

Full rolls

30 metre rolls for production work, at a better rate per metre than cut lengths.

What it's used for

Why plastic rather than wire

It doesn't rust, so it holds up in salt water and wet ground where galvanised wire gives out. It's light enough to handle in long lengths, it won't sharpen into a hazard as it wears, and it can be cut with a knife or shears on site rather than needing tools.

Getting some

Tell us the aperture and how many metres, or how many rolls. Cut lengths and part rolls are collected from the store at St Marys. Full rolls can be picked up or sent — mesh travels as a bulky item, so delivery is priced per order.
