When it comes to concrete reinforcement, choosing the right materials isn’t just about strength—it’s about ensuring long-term performance and simplifying the construction process. That’s why Oregon Wire offers a range of solutions like wire mesh, remesh, and welded dowel baskets. These materials streamline installation, enhance durability, and help concrete structures withstand the test of time.
In this guide, we’ll break down how each product contributes to concrete reinforcement and how they work together to ensure better outcomes for your projects.
What Are Wire Mesh, Remesh, and Welded Dowel Baskets?
Wire mesh is a prefabricated grid of steel wires welded together to form a sturdy reinforcement material. It’s widely used in concrete construction to provide additional strength, reduce cracking, and enhance durability. Remesh, or reinforcing mesh, serves a similar function but is typically designed to accommodate heavier loads and greater structural demands.
Welded dowel baskets complement these materials by providing load transfer and joint stability in pavement construction. These assemblies consist of steel dowel bars arranged at precise intervals to enhance the strength and durability of concrete slabs, ensuring smooth transitions and minimizing joint failure.
All three products work together to enhance concrete performance, ensuring stronger, more durable structures that are easier to install and maintain. Oregon Wire offers high-quality Plain Steel Mesh Sheets, ensuring stability and strength for a wide range of construction applications.

Whether you’re working on a road, a foundation, or a large-scale industrial project, Oregon Wire’s products provide the reinforcement you need to build with confidence.
Welded Dowel Baskets: Enhancing Pavement Performance
For pavement construction, welded dowel baskets are essential. These preassembled assemblies improve load transfer between concrete slabs, preventing uneven settling and extending the lifespan of roads and pathways. Manufactured in the USA using high-quality, domestically sourced materials, our dowel baskets meet the rigorous standards of WADOT and ODOT projects.
Benefits of Welded Dowel Baskets:
- Minimizes Joint Damage – Reduces wear and tear, extending the life of the pavement.
- Enhances Safety – Smooths out slab transitions to prevent tripping hazards.
- Improves Load Distribution – Ensures concrete slabs can handle heavy traffic without shifting.
- Streamlines Installation – Preassembled and ready for immediate placement, saving time on-site.
Common Applications of Wire Mesh, Remesh, and Welded Dowel Baskets
These reinforcement solutions are staples in numerous construction projects. Some of the most common uses include:
- Road Beds & Walkways – Strengthen concrete surfaces for long-lasting durability.
- Foundations & Walls – Improve load-bearing strength in structural builds.
- Industrial Floors & Ceilings – Provide support for high-traffic and heavy-load areas.
- Furniture & Fencing – Create sturdy, reliable structures for commercial and industrial settings.
- Filtration & Screening – Ideal for applications requiring fine filtration or structural screening.
- Pavement Construction – Use dowel baskets to ensure proper load transfer and prevent slab failure.
