The A142 Reinforcing Mesh 3.6m × 2.0m is a light-duty welded steel reinforcement sheet designed to control cracking and improve the structural performance of concrete. Manufactured from high tensile steel wires welded into a 200 × 200mm grid, this mesh is commonly used in slabs and groundwork applications where consistent reinforcement coverage is required.
Constructed using 6mm diameter wires, A142 mesh is ideal for domestic and light commercial projects such as concrete floors, driveways, paths, and oversites. The 3.6m × 2.0m sheet size provides efficient coverage, reducing lap joints and speeding up installation on site while maintaining uniform strength across the slab.
