stretched mesh size


Explanation:
Conforme a explicação no link abaixo, há duas maneiras de medir a malha de uma rede. A maneira que mede "entre nós opostos" se chama "stretched mesh size".

Example sentence(s):
  • This means the netting is stretched apart and the distance is measured from opposing knots.
