Wire Mesh
Technical woven wire mesh in stainless steel, brass and other materials for industrial filtration, sieving and screening applications.
How do you choose the right woven wire cloth? First, determine the material or alloy based on these factors:
- The nature of the products to be processed
- The working temperature
- The possible presence of contaminants
Second, determine the mesh size or aperture, which depends on:
- The particle size
- The particle size distribution
Manufactured to international standards
Our wire mesh is manufactured and inspected in accordance with the reference standards for woven wire cloth and mesh apertures.
