Explanation:
' phi-greco ' is sometimes simply called 'fi' - if this is the case ... you're dealing with round-section pillars.

Explanation:
Dopo un'accurata ricerca, ecco i risultati.

fi sta per Fili Intrecciati che tradotto in inglese è Woven Wire.

fi 168 mm significa Fili Intrecciati con apertura dei fori di 168 mm.

"La rete e' descritta piu' in generale dall'apertura dei fori (spazio tra i fili), ad esempio
Grossa – apertura dei fori da 1 a 12 mm
Media – apertura dei fori da 0.18 a 0.95 mm (180 to 950 mm)
Fine – apertura dei fori da 0.020 a 0.160 mm (20 to 160 mm)
Mesh is described more generally by aperture opening (space between the wires), eg

Coarse – aperture opening 1 to 12 mm
Medium – aperture opening 0.18 to 0.95 mm (180 to 950 mm)
Fine – aperture opening 0.020 to 0.160 mm (20 to 160 mm)"

Nel tuo caso l'apertura dei fori (spazio tra i fili) è di tipo media-fine.

Mettere semplicemente "fi" o "ww" è un po' criptico, suggerirei di mettere ww (woven wire).
