Stainless Steel Window Screen, also known as stainless steel insect mesh, is a durable woven mesh made of AISI 304 / 316 / 316L stainless steel wire. It is widely used for window screens, door screens, porch screens, ventilation grilles, and replacement screen frames. The most popular 18×14 mesh keeps out mosquitoes, flies, bees, and most common insects (not for tiny midges). It is chosen over fiberglass or plastic screens for better heat resistance, weatherability, and corrosion resistance. Available in rolls or cut-to-length pieces.
