1. Materials of Architectural Spiral Mesh
- Stainless steel:stainless steel has good corrosion resistance, heat resistance and mechanical properties in the atmosphere, and is widely used in food industry, decoration industry, etc. 304/316 are the common stainless steel grade used for architectural spiral mesh. And it can be made titanium coated surface treatment to white, black and rose gold color. After titanium coating, the color is firm and not easy to fade, enhanced metallic luster, smooth surface, very suitable for decorative purposes.
- Brass: Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It has good wear resistance. The brass material is very popular among the designers because of its bright yellow color.
- Phosphor bronze copper: Phosphor bronze copper is an alloy of phosphorus and copper, has higher corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Many designers like its bronze color.
- Copper: Copper material has good ductility, high thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. Its copper color can provide a noble feeling, under the light of gold and brilliant, elegant and refined.
- Aluminum: Aluminum is a light metal among nonferrous metals, silvery-white. Aluminum has good electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity, and its chemical properties are also very lively. When exposed to air, the surface is prone to form an aluminum oxide film to protect the underlying metal from corrosion. Therefore, aluminum has strong corrosion resistance in the atmosphere. However, due to the extremely thin film, its corrosion resistance has certain limits.
2. Types of Architectural Spiral Mesh
