What is A142 mesh used for?
A142 Reinforcing Mesh is a High Tensile Mild Steel Reinforcing Concrete Mesh that is used to help concrete withstand tension forces. Although the concrete is strong enough by nature to withstand compression force, it can also crack from a load-bending tensile force. Therefore, it needs help resisting tensile stress using a high-tensile substance.
The deformation shape on the A142 Mesh bars helps the concrete adhere to the steel bar, creating a bonded structure.
