steel mesh

Woven metallic fabric

Steel mesh is a grid of interwoven or welded steel wires forming a flexible or rigid sheet.

It serves structural, protective, and filtering purposes: reinforcing concrete, fencing enclosures, screening windows, or straining debris.

The openings vary from fine gauge for industrial filtration to heavy-duty patterns for security barriers: The warehouse windows were covered with steel mesh.
