Vented Hood - Mesh Options
 

Looking for some mesh options with sourcing website and Part # if possible.

I ordered some mesh on eBay and it turns out to be construction metal lath that is so sharp it can cut you.

I would find some either expanded aluminum, or perforated aluminum sheet. They have several different styles. Here is just one site, but there are more out there. Perforated Sheet

or this
MetalsDepot® - Aluminum Expanded Sheet

As you found out, you don't want lathing material. ;)

Thanks Felix

Any idea on this thin type of mesh that came with the hood but I had to rip out when it got wrapped.

What was it wrapped in?

That's expanded, probably aluminum. It's a process by actually stretching the material & it opens up into that diamond pattern.

Can you provide source and specs?

:tiphat:

I sent you a PM.

16 in. x 48 in. Perforated Hex.

I like this.. By chance do you know what gauge (thickness) this is?

Thickness 14 gauge or ~ 0.065"

I use WISS MaxCut to cut it with a little effort.

customcargrills is the best, IMO. I bought their plastic mesh and they diamond metal powdercoated black. I think a 12x48 sheet is enough for your hood.

That looks good. What mesh size is that? Would the plastic be strong enough to go in the front, or would it get destroyed by rocks?

Good question Cooltoy.

The one I bought is not plastic and it's very strong.

That size fits the hood and whole Fuji bumper opening.

Thanks, the plastic is strong for the front, I have it there too.
