Phifer Wire 6 in. W x 100 ft L Charcoal Aluminum Screen Cloth is a rugged, DIY-friendly solution designed to keep insects out while maximizing outdoor airflow. This 6-inch wide roll of durable aluminum mesh arrives in a charcoal finish that blends seamlessly with exterior trim and reduces visible wear over time.
Why this screen cloth stands out
-
Long-lasting aluminum construction. Built to withstand outdoor exposure without rusting, even under seasonal sun and rain. This means fewer replacements and more years of use for your screens.
-
Charcoal color for discreet, clean looks. The darker shade helps hide dirt, dust, and minor scuffs, delivering a neater appearance on porches, patios, and windows.
-
Generous 100 ft roll. A single roll provides ample material for multiple projects—great for homeowners tackling several screens or for DIY enthusiasts who re-screen over time.
-
6-inch width tailored for versatile applications. The wider strip makes it convenient for certain screen-frame projects and retrofit jobs, reducing the number of cuts and joins.
Perfect use cases
- Re-screening windows and doors to restore airflow while keeping bugs at bay.
- Repairing porch enclosures, sunrooms, or patio screens where wear is most noticeable.
- DIY screen projects around decks, gazebos, or outdoor enclosures where a durable, low-maintenance mesh is beneficial.
Practical tips for best results
- Measure openings precisely, then trim the screen cloth with scissors for a clean fit.
- Plan for slight overlaps at edges to ensure a secure, smooth finish once installed.
- Pair with a compatible frame and standard mesh spline to create durable, long-lasting screens.
- Clean occasionally with a soft brush or mild soap to keep the charcoal finish looking crisp.
