we had a trampoline growing up, i know exctly what ur talkin about. i wouldnt know the name. i know this isnt the question, but if nothing turns up , i guess u can zip wheel some of expanded metal, or use chain

 

If you can't find wire, the panels or sheet whichever you call it, is called woven wire mesh: View attachment wire mesh.jpg

 

Thanks, this gives me some more things to look for and a good alternative. I appreciate it!

 

Good ideas, thanks!

 

How about these?
Not continuous but heavier!

One of the products used in the greenhouse industry to attach plastic sheeting to frames uses wiggle wire compressed into a channel. Not sure if this is heavy enough for your needs. Often referred to as wiggle wire, one of the trade names is "Wire-Lock", another is "Zig-Zag" wire, and I've seen it sold as "spring wire".

Best I could find that was actually for sale.

This website https://www.qualitytrampolines.com/product/goliath-16-x-24-octagonal-trampoline/ refers to it as a "corrugated iron rod" but that's not what I think of when I hear corrugated iron rod. The manufacturer of those trampolines might know more about it, although they also might make it themselves in house.

 

7-8g for that trampoline - whata joke. half of it must be to make $, other half for liabilty/litigation costs. no wonder u dont see diving boards and trampolines no more

 

Check with your local chain link fence installer. They may have “spring tension wire” which has a subtle zig zag that straightens out when tensioned. Comes in 9 ga.

 

Check with an industrial co that supplies screen cloth for aggregate plants. They come with a lot of wire gauge sizes and mesh openings from 1/8" to 4".
