MONSTER-MESH
This fabric features an unusual combination of high strength
with a large percentage of open area. It is woven in a basket
weave from plasticized vinyl coated polyester yarn containing
approximately 66% vinyl compound and 34% polyester. The
light bonding of the coated yarns at the crossover points
contributes to high tear resistance compared with dip-coated
mesh
Suitable for use where a durable, weather-resistant open
weave fabric is required.
