Anti-Grenade Mesh
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Anti-Grenade Mesh is an uncommon upgrade mostly seen on siege tanks and vehicles expected to face the enemy in close quarters. It usually consists of thin metal wiring or heavy plastic rings that have a slight spring when pushed, always returning to their original form. An extremely basic form of passive defence, the mesh tends to deflect incoming grenades, pushing them away before they can explode. Attaching shaped explosives, such as melta bombs, is difficult due to the nonmagnetic nature of the materials used.[1]
