Product Overview

A142 reinforcement mesh with 6mm high-tensile bars set at 200mm centres, for light-duty concrete reinforcement. 

A142 is a standard BS 4483 mesh (142g per m²) designed to control cracking in light domestic slabs such as paths, sheds, and floors.

When placed on spacers or chairs and embedded within 100-150mm of freshly poured concrete, the mesh bonds with the curing material to create a composite structure. 

By distributing both compressive and tensile stresses, it significantly improves durability and reduces the risk of long-term cracking.

Each sheet measures 2400mm x 4800mm, reducing the number of panels required across a slab, minimising lap zones, and improving reinforcement continuity on larger pours. For continuity of reinforcement, sheets should be overlapped by at least one square (200mm) and tied securely with wire.

Features & Benefits

  • A142 designation: Indicates a nominal weight of 142g/m², defining it as a light-duty mesh suitable for domestic concrete reinforcement.
  • High tensile steel construction: Improves resistance to cracking, structural movement, and load stresses.
  • Bonds with curing concrete: Creates a composite material that distributes stresses effectively.
  • Resistance welded intersections: Enhances strength and durability at every joint.
  • Light-duty reinforcement format: Reinforces domestic slabs, shed bases, patios, and paving.
  • 6mm diameter reinforcement: Provides tensile strength for light-duty slabs and bases with depths of 100–150mm.
  • 2400mm x 4800mm sheet size: Fewer lap joints improve reinforcement continuity.

Applications

  • Concrete slabs (100–150mm thick): Provides effective reinforcement for light-duty slabs, preventing shrinkage cracking and improving load-bearing capacity.
  • Shed bases: Adds stability and strength for small garden buildings and outbuildings.
  • Patios and paving: Controls cracking in outdoor slabs subject to temperature change and ground movement.
  • Light footings and walls: Enhances tensile performance in small-scale domestic foundations and retaining structures.

Installation Guidance

  • Place on supports: Position mesh correctly within the slab depth for effective reinforcement.
  • Tie overlaps: Secure adjoining sheets to maintain continuity and prevent movement.
  • Maintain cover: Ensure adequate concrete cover to protect against corrosion.

Compliance & Performance

  • High tensile reinforcement steel: Manufactured to BS 4483:2005 specifications.
  • Meets BS 4449:2005 standards: Ensures compliance for reinforcement steel.
  • Fully CE-certified: Approved for use in reinforced concrete applications.
  • Resistance welded intersections: Guarantees strength and durability throughout the mesh.
