Description
Woven stainless steel wire cloth is an ideal filter medium which
can be easily worked and styled using available techniques.
In addition to the so called space wire weaves with square or
rectangular openings which can be woven down to a fineness of 5
micron aperture, there are many combinations of filter weaves with
retention in the micron range.
Applications:
Stainless steel wire cloth made from choice wires are used for
separation of solids and clear filtration of liquids, as in the
cleaning of fuels or hydraulic liquids, or in water treatment.
Square Opening Wire Cloth in Stainless Steel:
Plain weave stainless steel wire cloth:
This is the most commonly used style of weaving. Every second wire
is woven in, warp and weft wires run over and under each other
alternately and interlock. Plain weave wire meshes guarantee
optimum accuracy of apertures or filter pores. Plain weave wire
cloth use wires that are thinner than the corresponding
apertures.
Twilled weave stainless steel wire cloth:
In cases where increased wire thickness is required in relation to
the aperture size, which yield in the weaving process cannot
withstand, this style of weave is chosen. At least two wires are
woven in pairs, subsequently displacing a single wire. Mesh
stability is controlled by a combination of aperture size and wire
strength, and displays a slight diagonal trend. Using modern
weaving technology, excellent stability of weave can be achieved.
