Tech/Engineering - Nuclear Eng/Sci / radioactive waste disposal
Italian term or phrase: cestello a rete
A description of "contenitori cilindrici per lo stoccaggio ed il trasporto di rifiuti radioattivi" - the containers have to have "struttura interna di centraggio e cestello a rete"
Is it just wire/wire mesh basket, or is there a specific term?

mesh basket
Explanation:
Here is a link I hope you'll find helpful:

"Among these were radioactive, experimental packages made of different metals, wire cables, cutoff remnants of old experiments, nuts, bolts, a very fine layer of silt approximately 5 inches thick and other pieces of radioactive debris. The silt was removed using a filtration system. The materials were size reduced and collected in a wire mesh basket using a pneumatically operated cutter and a retrieval tool and long-reach poles. The disposable *mesh baskets* containing the materials were loaded into shielded 55-gallon drums."

Many thanks - never sure with this kind of term if it can just be translated straight or if there's a special term. Link was useful too.
