Features
  • Superior 3D Formability: The woven (non-welded) construction ensures the mesh is incredibly easy to form by hand or with simple tools. It holds complex curves and creases with minimal spring-back, allowing for high-precision 3D contouring.
  • Technical Copper Aesthetic: Offers a natural, high-quality metallic finish that can be polished for brilliance or treated with chemical patinas for aged, industrial, or architectural effects.
  • Ease of Processing: Can be precisely trimmed using standard professional scalpels or heavy-duty scissors. Professional Tip: Delicacy in cutting increases the cohesion of the woven edges, though the mesh is designed for high-end manual manipulation.
  • Electrical Conductivity: Naturally conductive, making it suitable for technical prototypes or experimental setups requiring an electrically active mesh layer.
  • Corrosion Resistance: Coppers natural resistance to atmospheric degradation ensures long-term stability for exhibition models and functional prototypes.

Description

Flexible Copper Wire Mesh - 3D-Formable Lattice

This high-specification copper wire mesh is an essential technical material for professional makers requiring a combination of exceptional malleability and aesthetic warmth. Unlike rigid welded alternatives, this mesh is exclusively woven, allowing it to be freely manipulated into complex three-dimensional forms and organic contours. Available in various mesh widths, it provides a versatile substrate for both structural armatures and intricate decorative finishes across the architectural, industrial, and scenic design sectors.

Applications:

  • Architectural Model Making: The definitive choice for representing specialised perforated metal elements, historical bronze/copper cladding, or contemporary screening systems. Its natural metallic lustre and ability to be easily contoured make it ideal for depicting complex roof geometries, curved facade treatments, and detailed landscape features.
  • Film & TV Prop Making: A versatile material for constructing detailed "hero" props, scientific equipment, and historical set pieces. Coppers distinctive colour and receptive nature to ageing patinas allow scenic artists to simulate antique or industrial metals with high accuracy.
  • Prototyping & Industrial Design: Ideal for early-stage volumetric studies where a flexible, conductive, or light-diffusing structural layer is required. It is frequently used to represent metallic filters, ergonomic housings, or high-tech textile components in product mock-ups.
  • Sculpture & Special Effects: Provides a high-quality, malleable skeleton for clay, wax, and plaster work. The woven structure holds complex organic shapes with precision, offering a stable foundation for creature effects and fine art sculptures.

Technical Specifications:

  • Material: Technical Grade Copper Wire
  • Fabric Type: Woven Square Mesh Netting
  • Properties: Highly formable, conductive, non-magnetic, patina-receptive
