Brass Screens, Wire Cloth Woven of 80-20 Brass

    Printable Version

BRASS WOVEN WIRE CLOTH

Low brass is the most popular brass alloy for wire cloth screens.  With an analysis of 80% copper and 20% zinc, low brass offers good resistance to corrosion like copper although its electrical and thermal conductivity are lower.  Cartridge brass with an analysis of 70% copper and 30% zinc is slightly higher in strength although more difficult to weave. The tensile properties of brass screen is higher than those of copper with some sacrifice in formability.
