Cyclone Pro Foam Spline is a professional quality foam core spline for fitting fly screen mesh into aluminium screen frames, supplied here as a single 30 metre roll in the 5.7mm size. Its high compression foam core and shape memory make it quicker to push into the frame groove than a ribbed spline, so it suits both home re-screening jobs and busy trade work.About the productPart of the Cyclone Pro Series, this spline is made in Australia. The foam core compresses as it is rolled into the groove, then springs back to hold the screen mesh firmly in place. It is designed to resist shrinkage over time and is UV resistant for long service life in sun-exposed screens. Cyclone rates it as around twice as fast to install as ribbed spline.Where to use itIndoors: replacing damaged or sagging mesh in aluminium flyscreen frames on windows and doors, and in screens you can remove and work on at a bench.Outdoors: screens exposed to sun and weather, such as window and door flyscreens and other aluminium screen frames with a spline groove.Best suited to synthetic insect screening fitted into aluminium extrusions with a matching groove width (check your frame before buying). For doors and patios that take heavy knocks, a ribbed spline may suit better.How to use it Remove the old spline and mesh and clean out the spline groove. Lay the new mesh over the frame, keeping it square and free of wrinkles. Starting at a corner, press the foam spline into the groove over the mesh using a spline roller, working steadily around the frame. Trim off the excess mesh with a sharp blade and cut the spline to length at the end of the run. A spline roller makes the job easier, such as Cyclone's Roll 'n' Feed roller, which works with foam or ribbed spline (sold separately).Important notesCheck that the 5.7mm width suits your frame's groove before you start, as the wrong size can leave the mesh loose or make the spline hard to seat. Spline is a replacement part only and does not include screen mesh or a roller tool. Use steady, even pressure when rolling and avoid stretching the mesh tight, which can distort the frame.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Pro Series Foam Spline Model number 30122057 Width 5.7mm Length 30m roll Pack 1 x roll Type Foam core spline Fits Aluminium extrusion screen frames Made in Australia Use Interior and exterior Care and storageKeep the roll in its packaging in a cool, dry place out of direct sun until you are ready to use it. Keep it clean and free of dust and dirt so it seats cleanly in the groove. Offcuts are best used for patching small repairs.

Cyclone Pet Mesh is a tough polyester flyscreen made for doors and windows that get a hard life, supplied here as a 1220mm wide x 2m long roll. The heavy-gauge mesh is designed to stand up to paws, claws and small hands, so it suits homes with pets and kids where ordinary screen wears out quickly.About the productPet Mesh is a heavy-gauge polyester insect screen engineered to resist tearing from the raking claws of most dogs and cats. The strands are thermo-bonded, so the weave stays flat without warped strands. Cyclone rates it as around six times stronger than standard fibreglass flyscreen, and it has more flex than fibreglass, which helps it absorb impact. It is weather resistant and will not rot, shrink or stain.Where to use itIndoors: screen doors and windows, laundry and kitchen openings, and pet-friendly or kid-friendly areas where the screen is often pushed or scratched.Outdoors: screen doors, windows and enclosures that face the weather, including high-traffic entries to patios and decks.How to use itMeasure the frame, then cut the mesh a little larger than the opening. Hold it taut across the frame and fix it in place with spline, working evenly around the frame so the screen stays flat and tight. Trim off the excess once it is secure. A 2m length makes it a good fit for replacing one or two screens or for repairing a damaged panel. Resists damage from pets and children Higher flexibility to withstand impact Weather resistant, will not rot, shrink or stain Thermo-bonded construction with no warped strands Supplied as 1 roll, 1220mm x 2m Important notesPet Mesh has a coarser, heavier weave than fine view screens, so it will not look as clear as lighter screens such as Cyclone Pureview. It is built to resist damage rather than to offer the clearest view. Spline and a spline roller are not included. Check the fit of your frame and spline groove before cutting.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Pet Mesh Flyscreen Model number 30122705 Size 1220mm wide x 2m long (1 roll) Material Polyester Mesh weight 145gsm Openness 58% Aperture 1.21 x 1.21mm Strand diameter 0.66mm Tensile strength 400 N/20mm Elongation 15% Use Interior and exterior Care and storageWear gloves when cutting and handling to protect your hands from the cut edges.

Cyclone Pet Mesh is a tough polyester flyscreen made for doors and windows that take a beating from pets and kids, supplied here as a 910mm wide x 2m long roll. It suits households where paws, claws and small hands regularly push against the screen, and where ordinary fibreglass mesh tends to tear or bag out.About the productPet Mesh uses a heavy-gauge polyester weave that is thermo-bonded, so the strands stay straight and do not warp. It is built to resist tearing from the raking claws of most dogs and cats, and it has enough flexibility to take knocks and impacts without being damaged. The supplier lists it as roughly six times stronger than standard fibreglass flyscreen and describes it as weather resistant, so it will not rot, shrink or stain. Cyclone also recommends it for severe sea-shore corrosion zones, such as surf beach shoreline regions with very high salt deposition.Where to use itIndoors: screen doors and windows in busy family areas, laundries, kitchens and rooms with pets.Outdoors: patio and alfresco doors, windows on exposed or coastal homes, and other openings that need protection from insects.Suitable for residential windows and doors. Cyclone notes that this screen can form part of a complete window system designed to meet building code fall-protection requirements (AS 5203:2016). The screen alone does not provide this, so check the full system requirements for your project.How to use itThe roll is cut to size and fitted into a new or existing screen frame, usually with a spline and a spline roller. Typical steps: Remove the old screen and spline from the frame and wipe the channel clean. Lay the mesh over the frame, leaving a small overlap on every side. Press the spline into the channel to hold the mesh, keeping it square and evenly tensioned. Trim the excess with a sharp utility knife and refit the frame. Spline and a roller tool are not included, and are sold separately.Important notesPet Mesh is made for residential screen frames. Avoid over-tensioning the mesh during installation, as this can bow the frame. Measure your frame carefully before cutting, as a cut roll cannot be rejoined. Roll length is 2m, so check that it covers your frame before you start.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Pet Mesh Flyscreen Part number 30122682 Roll size 910mm wide x 2m long Pack 1 roll Material Polyester Mesh weight 145gsm Openness 58% Aperture 1.21 x 1.21mm Strand diameter 0.66mm Tensile strength 400 N/20mm Elongation 15% Use Residential windows and doors Care and storageClean the mesh with a soft brush or a damp cloth and mild soapy water, then let it dry. Avoid sharp tools and harsh abrasives on the weave. Keep the unused roll flat or loosely rolled in a dry place, away from sharp objects, and avoid creasing it so it fits its frame neatly later.

Cyclone Primeview is a stainless steel flyscreen made for homeowners and installers who want a clearer view, better airflow and a tougher screen than traditional aluminium mesh, supplied here as a 1220mm x 6m roll. It keeps insects out while letting more of the outlook and breeze through, and it suits residential windows and doors.About the productPrimeview is woven from ultra-fine, high-tensile SS304 stainless steel wire and finished with a super-fine black ESD coating for an even, deep black appearance. Cyclone states it gives a clearer outward view than aluminium flyscreen (up to 35% clearer) and can be tensioned tighter in the frame. The weave is designed to give a flat, clean finish, and the screen needs no pre-creasing during installation. It is rated Class 3 for corrosion resistance, which makes it a sensible choice in coastal areas. For bushfire-prone homes, Cyclone advises it can be used on buildings rated up to BAL-40 because it is non-combustible stainless steel with an aperture smaller than 2 x 2mm.Where to use itIndoors: replacement flyscreens for windows, sliding doors and hinged screen doors where you want an unobstructed view from inside.Outdoors: screens on patios, verandahs and enclosures, and on homes in coastal or bushfire-prone zones.How to use it Measure your frame and allow a little extra mesh around the edges for fixing. Cut the mesh to size with sharp snips, keeping the cut square to the weave. Fit the mesh into the frame with a spline and spline roller, or with another fixing method suited to your frame, and tension it evenly as you go. Trim off the excess mesh neatly along the edge of the frame. Important notesOn a BAL-40 rated building the screen assembly should be fixed with metal fixings only, so a rubber spline is not suitable for BAL-40 installations. Check the requirements for your site and frame before installing. The mesh is fine wire, so handle the cut edges with care and wear gloves when cutting and fitting. This roll is a standard-grade flyscreen, not a security or heavy-duty screen.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Primeview Stainless Steel Flyscreen Size 1220mm wide x 6m long roll Material SS304 stainless steel Colour Black (ESD coated) Mesh weight 210gsm Openness 78% Aperture 1.25 x 1.25mm Strand diameter 0.15mm Tensile strength 720 N/20mm Elongation 30% Corrosion resistance Class 3 Bushfire rating Suitable for use up to BAL-40 (AS 3959-2018) Use Interior and exterior Care and storageKeep the roll in its tube or lying flat until you are ready to use it, and avoid crushing or kinking the mesh.

Cyclone Primeview is a next-generation stainless steel insect screen that gives a clearer view and better airflow than traditional flyscreen, supplied here as a 910mm wide x 6m roll for window and door screens. It is made from ultra-fine, high-tensile stainless steel wire, so it keeps insects out while letting in more light and breeze.About the productPrimeview is woven from fine SS304 stainless steel wire and finished with a super-fine ESD (electrostatic deposition) coating that gives an even, deep black look. Cyclone's weave process produces very uniform strands for a crisp, unobstructed outlook. Compared with an aluminium flyscreen, it offers a clearer view and much higher strength. It is also Class 3 corrosion resistant, and the manufacturer lists it as suitable for coastal corrosion zones.Where to use itIndoors: replacement or new flyscreens for windows and doors where you want to keep the view as open as possible.Outdoors: screens on windows and doors exposed to weather, coastal air and bushfire-prone conditions.How to use it Measure the screen frame and cut the mesh to size, allowing enough overlap to secure it. The mesh does not need pre-creasing, and the manufacturer notes that higher tension can be achieved than with standard screening. Fix it into the frame using your usual screen system. For bushfire-rated installations, use metal fixings and keep to the requirements of AS 3959-2018. Supplied as one 910mm x 6m roll, so one roll can make several screens. Important notesPrimeview is stainless steel and non-combustible, with an aperture under 2 x 2mm. This is what allows it to be used on buildings rated up to BAL-40. On a BAL-40 building the screen assembly must be fixed with metal fixings, not a rubber spline. The whole window or door assembly must meet the relevant requirements, so check your local bushfire and building rules before installing. Fine wire mesh can have sharp cut edges, so handle it with care.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Primeview Stainless Steel Insect Screen Size 910mm wide x 6m long roll Manufacturer part number 30121777 Material SS304 stainless steel Colour Black Coating Super-fine ESD coating Mesh weight 210gsm Openness 78% Aperture 1.25 x 1.25mm Strand diameter 0.15mm Tensile strength 720 N/20mm Elongation 30% Corrosion resistance Class 3 Bushfire rating Suitable up to BAL-40 when installed as per AS 3959-2018 requirements Use Windows and doors, interior and exterior Care and storageKeep the roll in its tube or lying flat in a dry place until you are ready to install, and avoid crushing or kinking the mesh.

The Cyclone Fibreglass Flyscreen is a traditional, flexible insect screen mesh for replacing or fitting flyscreens on windows and doors, supplied here as a 910mm wide x 2m long roll. It suits everyday home use and is easy to cut to size and fit into a standard screen frame.About the productThis is a woven fibreglass flyscreen mesh with a matte charcoal protective coating. The dark finish helps cut sun glare and the coating has low heat transfer. The fabric is supple and pliable, so it is easy to handle and holds firm tension once it is fitted. Cyclone says it will not dent, corrode or stain, and it is UV stabilised for a longer working life. Cyclone rates its insect protection at 2 out of 3 on its own scale.Where to use itIndoors: window and door screens in bedrooms, living areas, kitchens and laundries, to allow fresh air while keeping flying insects out.Outdoors: screens on external doors, sliding doors and windows, where the UV stabilised mesh is built to cope with sun exposure.How to use it Measure your screen frame and cut the mesh a little larger than the frame opening. Lay the mesh over the frame groove and press it in with spline, using a spline roller (not included). Pull the mesh evenly as you work around the frame so it stays tight and flat. Trim off the excess mesh neatly along the spline once fitted. The flexible, pliable weave makes it quick to spline in and it resists kinking and denting. Important notesThis pack contains the mesh only. Spline, frames and tools are not included. Fibreglass mesh is a general-purpose flyscreen and is not a security screen or a pet-proof mesh. If you need extra protection against very small insects such as midges or sandflies, look at a finer weave screening. Wear gloves when cutting and handling if you have sensitive skin.Specifications Brand Cyclone Product Fibreglass Flyscreen Size 910mm wide x 2m long (1 roll) Material Fibreglass Colour Charcoal Finish Matte Insect protection rating 2 out of 3 (manufacturer scale) UV performance UV stabilised Hardware included No Use Window and door flyscreens, indoor and outdoor Care and storageKeep the roll flat or loosely rolled in a dry place and avoid sharp creases. Once fitted, clean the screen gently with a soft brush or cloth and mild soapy water, then rinse. Avoid scraping or pulling hard on the mesh so it keeps its tension and shape.
