Industrial Filter Mesh
Stainless steel wire mesh must be specified with material grade, mesh count, wire diameter and aperture. Mesh count alone is not enough because different wire diameters produce different openings and flow rates.
Product overview
Select the mesh by process function—protection, screening or filtration—then confirm grade, aperture, weave, tolerance and finished format.
Stainless steel mesh is selected by alloy, weave construction, mesh count, aperture, wire diameter, edge condition and the buyer’s process duty.
For quotation comparison: The same mesh designation can use different wire and aperture; compare actual opening, grade, tolerance and supplied format.
Specifications
A comparable quotation must match alloy, weave, mesh count, wire diameter, calculated or measured aperture, tolerance, edge, cleanliness and supplied format.
| Specification item | Selection reference | Confirm in RFQ / approved data sheet |
|---|---|---|
| Alloy / material | 304, 316 or 316L may be considered by corrosion and process duty | Exact material designation and material-document requirement |
| Weave construction | Plain, twill or Dutch weave serve different opening, retention and flow needs | Weave type, direction and any layer or support construction |
| Mesh designation | Mesh count alone is incomplete without wire diameter and weave | Mesh count plus nominal wire diameter |
| Aperture / open area | Calculate or measure from the agreed mesh and wire construction | Target aperture or retention need, tolerance and inspection method |
| Wire diameter | Selected together with aperture, strength and pressure or handling duty | Nominal diameter, tolerance and measurement method |
| Supplied format | Roll, sheet, cut disc, tube, basket, frame or drawing-defined component | Finished dimensions, quantity, joint or fabrication drawing |
| Edges and cleanliness | Cut, selvage, framed or otherwise finished; cleaning level follows process use | Edge condition, burr control, cleaning and handling requirement |
| Service conditions | Medium, temperature, corrosion, pressure differential and cleaning cycle affect selection | Process medium and operating limits supplied by the buyer |
| Inspection and packing | Fine mesh needs crease, contamination and edge-damage protection | Required records, labels, core or case, and packing unit |
Reference basis: ASTM E2016 or ISO 9044 — industrial woven wire cloth, when within the selected standard scope · Buyer filtration specification for Dutch weave or other excluded constructions
Confirm in the RFQ: Alloy, weave, mesh count or aperture, wire diameter, width/length, edge, cleanliness, tolerance, inspection method and packing.
System and options
Packing and RFQ
Fine mesh is protected with paper, film and rigid tubes or cases to reduce creasing and edge damage.
