RMS supplies high-quality welded mesh reinforcement sourced from trusted local manufacturers. Manufactured from cold-rolled deformed wire and joined with electric resistance welding, our mesh provides durable intersections with minimal loss of cross-sectional area.
All RMS welded mesh complies with SANS 1024 Standard Specifications, with selected types meeting BS 4482 tensile strength requirements. This makes our welded mesh suitable for a wide range of structural, civil, and infrastructure applications across South Africa.
