Selden Steel Tex: Reinforced Waterproofing for Pools

Selden Steel Tex is an essential material for building strong and durable swimming pools, offering a reliable solution for reinforcing waterproof layers. Often referred to as pool wire, this paper-backed steel mesh is designed to improve the structural integrity of ground-embedded pools. By creating a solid barrier between the pool cavity and the concrete, it helps extend the lifespan of the pool and reduce concrete waste.

How Is Steel Tex Manufactured?

Steel Tex is produced through a meticulous process that ensures both strength and flexibility. The mesh is made from cold-drawn, galvanized, welded steel wires woven into a durable grid. This grid is coated with wax and reinforced with a kraft paper layer to further boost its strength. Additionally, the mesh includes a composite of glass fibers and cloth woven from intricate PVC flat threads, enhancing its overall durability. With a weight ranging from 155 to 165g/m², Selden Steel Tex offers the perfect combination of robustness and adaptability, making it ideal for a variety of construction applications.

Why Use Steel Tex for Swimming Pool Construction?

Steel Tex is highly regarded for its strength and versatility, making it an excellent choice for a range of swimming pool designs. Its durability enables it to handle the demands of gunite application and resist damage from cleaning tools and products. Selden Steel Tex is a trusted option for ensuring the long-term stability of in-ground pools. Whether you’re installing a new pool or reinforcing an existing one, Steel Tex provides a secure and effective lining solution.

In Selden, Steel Tex is available at trusted local suppliers. These suppliers offer Steel Tex in rolls that measure 48” wide and 125’ long, covering 500m². The mesh is available in both 16- and 12-gauge electrically galvanized welded options, designed to meet various construction needs. Local suppliers also provide convenient pickup and delivery services to ensure timely availability of your Steel Tex materials.
