| The most common
specifications for woven wire cloth and wire mesh are shown in the various
specification tables listed alphabetically below. |
| |
|
|
Aluminum wire cloth resists most atmospheric
influences. It is lightweight and a good electrical conductor.
|
|
Brass straining screen cloth is utilized in filters
and strainers for the removal of foreign solids from a stream of liquid or gaseous fluid.
|
|
Brass offers good resistance to corrosion like
copper although its electrical and thermal conductivity are lower. The tensile
properties of brass screen is higher than those of copper with some sacrifice in
formability.
|
|
Copper
Screens are extremely popular utilized in a diverse range of Architectural, Industrial and
Commercial applications.
|
|
Woven wire cloth has been used for
filtration for over 100 years, and is the material of choice for problem-free processing,
excellent durability and is easily cleanable.
|
|
Wire mesh having a mesh count greater
than 90 x 90 is referred to as Fine Mesh. This group of wirecloth specifications is
typically available in Stainless Steel. Monel or Nickel may be woven to order.
|
|
|
Wire cloth woven of durable low carbon
steel and hot dip galvanized after resulting in a product that resists rust and corrosion
due to normal atmospheric moisture.
|
|
Hardware Cloth is produced using the
lightest wire diameter which a given mesh can be produced with good stability. After
weaving (or welding), Hardware Wire Cloth is galvanized with a bright protective coating
of zinc.
|
|
|
Window and Door screens are the most popular application for woven wire
cloth. The product designation is commonly referred to as "Insect Screens"
or "Bug Screens".
|
|
|
This group of wiremesh specifications is woven
utilizing moderate wire diameters resulting in a high strength square mesh cloth, suitable
for general purpose screening.
|
|
|
Mill Grade is wire cloth woven of lighter wire
diameters than Market Grade, providing a greater percentage of screen cloth open area.
|
|
|
Stainless Steel
Security screening provides resistance to cutting by small tools, impact
resistance, high tensile strength and reasonable percentages of open
area for light transmission and ventilation.
|
|
Space cloth is wire cloth designated by
the aperture (open space) width, expressed in inches or fractions thereof.
Wire space cloth specifications are commonly
utilized in aggregate screening.
|
|
Several types of wire cloth specialty
screens are available for specific industrial process applications. Products
include
Archaeological Screens, Foundry Screens, Automatic Filter Belts
and Stainless Steel Security Screens.
|
|
Stainless steel bolting cloth is a
light wire cloth woven of highly durable wire. The wire is drawn with a very smooth
surface to speed up the bolting action which increases screening machine capacity.
