Stainless Steel Wire Mesh

Stainless steel wire is selected for their wear-resisting, heat-resisting, acid-resisting and corrosion resisting characteristics. Many different grades of stainless are used in wire cloth. T304 is the most common, but other are used in specific applications to take advantage of each grade’s unique properties. The wire mesh made of stainless steel is extensively used in mining , chemical industry, food industry and pharmaceutical industry.

Wire Materials: SUS302, 304, 316, 304L, 316L.

Characteristics: Square aperture, less rigid than plain weave, especially suitable for deforming, strong wire cloth due to ratio of wire diameter and aperture, it is mostly used for filtration less than 63 μm .

Typical Weaving Patterns: Plain weave, twill weave, dutch weave, twilled dutch weave.

General Use: Stainless steel wire mesh, with its excellent resistance against acid, alkali, heat and corrosion, find extensive uses in processing of oils, chemicals, food, pharmaceuticals, also sorting and screening of solid, liquid and gas in mine, metallurgy, airspace, machine making, etc.
