Stainless steel wire mesh material
The main materials include stainless steel wire, nickel wire, brass wire, and so on. Stainless steel wire is mainly made of SUS302, 304, 316, 304L, 316L, etc. As they all contain chromium, nickel and other alloying elements, these elements form a layer of dense oxidized film on the surface of the metal that prevents oxygen, water, and other media from coming into direct contact with the metal, which results in superior anticorrosive properties. Different types of stainless steel have different degrees of corrosion resistance and heat resistance.
Characteristics
1. Acid and alkali resistance: stainless steel material itself has higher corrosion resistance than other common metals, fearless of acid, alkali, and other harsh environments.
2. Heat resistance: high temperature resistance of 800 degrees Celsius; able to maintain stable performance in high temperature environments, without deformation or melting. Such as industrial furnaces, high-temperature filtration applications.
3. High strength and toughness: high tensile strength and abrasion resistance enable it to withstand large external forces without fracture.
4. Stable filtration performance: stainless steel metal mesh mesh and, mesh precision, stable filtration performance, suitable for a variety of filtration and separation occasions.
5. Smooth surface: uniform thickness, good filtration performance, and cleaning performance, not easy to adsorb impurities and dirt, easy to clean and maintain, but also to reduce the resistance of the fluid through.

How stainless steel wire mesh is made?
Stainless steel wire mesh is divided into woven stainless steel wire mesh and welded stainless steel wire mesh. The steps and advantages of these two processes are explained below one by one.
Ⅰ. 3 types of woven stainless steel wire mesh
The three main methods of weaving stainless steel metal mesh are plain weave, twill weave and Dutch weave. Different weaving methods will affect the strength and appearance of the mesh.
1). Plain weave
The warp and weft wires are interwoven vertically with each other, and each warp wire passes up and down alternately with each weft wire to form a flat grid structure.
Plain Weave Stainless Steel Wire Mesh is characterized by the same density of warp and weft wires, which is suitable for general occasions requiring uniform filtration effect.
2). Twill Weave
The modified weaving method is to interweave the warp and weft wires at a certain angle, and the adjacent warp or weft wires are misaligned with each other at the interweaving point, so that the wire mesh has better
flexibility and air permeability and the wire mesh has better flexibility and air permeability. The net woven by this method has better elasticity and toughness and is suitable for occasions that need to withstand certain external forces, higher filtration precision, and flow rate occasions.
3). Dutch Weaving
It is a special kind of weaving method, which uses thicker weft wire and finer warp wire, and makes the wire mesh have high-precision mesh and larger mesh area through special weaving process, which is suitable for high-precision filtration and sieving.
Ⅱ. Welded Stainless Steel Wire Mesh
1). The elasticity and flexibility of woven stainless steel wire mesh are better, but if high strength and high stability are required, it will be produced by the welding process. Stainless steel wires are arranged according to the predetermined mesh size and shape and then connected at the intersections by welding technology to form a strong mesh structure.
2). Common stainless steel hardware cloth, welded stainless steel mesh panels, etc. The welding process can make the wire mesh with higher strength and load-bearing capacity, suitable for the production of heavy-duty filter mesh, and protective mesh.
For example, 8 Gauge Reinforce Steel Welded Wire Mesh Roll for Concrete Structures is one of our popular products.
The surface of the welded mesh is passivated and plasticized, such as cold plating (electroplating), hot plating, and PVC coating.
The welded mesh has the advantages of a smooth mesh surface, uniform mesh, firm welding points, good local processing performance, good stability, good weather resistance and good corrosion resistance.
Areas of application
Stainless steel metal mesh has a wide range of uses, mainly including the following aspects:
1. Mining: used to screen ores, coal, and other materials.
2. Construction: screening sand, stone, and other aggregates to ensure that the aggregate particle size meets the construction requirements.
3. Chemical industry: used for filtering liquids, gases, and other media, and as a lining or protective layer of chemical equipment. Filtering materials in the reaction kettle, petroleum refining filtering lubricating oil, fuel oil, and so on.
4. Metallurgy: sieving metal powder and particles to improve precision and facilitate refining.
5. Food: used in the food processing process of filtering juice and syrup, separation and packaging, and so on.
6. Pharmaceutical: used for filtration, separation, and purification in the pharmaceutical process.
7. Electronics: shielding nets and filters for electronic components.
8. Protective fences: safety nets for construction sites, barrier fences on both sides of roads, and protective fences for airports and prisons.
9. Aerospace: fuel filtration, air filtration, and other systems for aircraft engines.
10. Environmental protection field: filter mesh in sewage treatment, filter material in exhaust gas purification.
Selection Guide
When you buy stainless steel metal mesh, you need to pay attention to the following points:
1. Material selection: 316 is more corrosion-resistant than 304, so you need to determine the environment in which it will be used before selecting the appropriate grade.
2. Mesh size: it is still necessary to choose the right size of mesh and mesh size according to your needs, which will help it give full play to its advantages.
3. Manufacturing process: choosing woven wire mesh or welded wire mesh depends on what you are using it for, both are corrosion-resistant but with different hardness.
4. Supplier reputation: choose a supplier with a good reputation to ensure product quality and after-sales service.
Maintenance
1. Its integrity needs to be checked regularly, and it should be replaced or repaired in time if it is broken or corroded.
2. Regularly clean the dust and dirt on the surface of the mesh to maintain its good filtration and protection performance.
3. For stainless steel metal mesh used in harsh environments for a long time, regular anti-corrosion treatment is also needed to extend its service life.
Stainless steel wire mesh price
The price of stainless steel wire mesh is determined by the material, specification, weaving method, application, order quantity, and market supply and demand, 304 and 316 are the more common materials, in addition to this, there are 302, 201, 304, 304L, 316, 316L, etc., the better the material, the higher the price. In addition, the specification parameters include mesh, wire diameter, and aperture, the larger the specification, the price will be increased accordingly, and the size of the order, and product quality advantages and disadvantages, will affect the unit price/ton.
