 Bright Sunshine Industrial Co.,Ltd. produces a wide choice of fine quality stainless steel woven wire mesh and wire cloth products.

Stainless steel woven wire mesh refers to Square Opening Series Stainless Steel Wire Mesh and Stainless Steel Wire Cloth (from 1mesh to 500mesh) and Dutch Woven Series Stainless Steel Wire Cloth (from 12x64mesh to 400x2800mesh). 

The Plain Weave is the most commonly used and simplest wire cloth weave. Each warp wire (wire running-parallel to length of cloth) passes alternately over and under the wires running traversely through the cloth (fill or shoot wires) at 90 degree angles. It has an extremely wide range of applications.

The Dutch Weave is produced by the use of coarse mesh in the warp and a fine mesh with relatively smaller wire in the fill. This weave results in greater strength with very fine openings and is primarily used as a filter cloth. The shape and position of the openings aid particle retention and increase filter cake formation.

The Twilled Weave is produced by passing each fill wire alternately over and under two warp wires. The pattern is staggered on successive warp wires, giving the appearance of parallel diagonal lines. This weave allows the use of proportionately heavier wires in a particular mesh count (number of openings per lineal inch) than is possible in plain weave. This cloth has a wide application capable of supporting greater loads and finer filtrations.

The Twilled Dutch Weave is produced by a combination of the features of the Dutch Weave and the Twilled Weave. Fill wires are passed alternately over and under two warp wires forming a fine mesh in one direction and a coarse mesh in the other. This type of weave is capable of supporting greater loads than the Dutch Weave, with finer openings than the Twilled Weave. It is used in applications where the filtering of heavy material is necessary.

3.Stainless Steel Wire Mesh and Wire Cloth Applications:

Stainless steel wire mesh is extensively used as filtering, sifting or grading materials in mining, chemical industry, food industry and pharmaceutical industry, due to its excellent property of wear-resistance, heat-resistance, acid-resistance and corrosion resistance.

Stainless Steel Wire Mesh and stainless steel wire cloth, can be supplied in rolls or cut into stainless steel wire mesh screen discs.

4. Stainless Steel Wire Mesh Weaving Material:

Type 304
Often referred to as "18-8" (18% chromium, 8% nickel) T-304 is the basic stainless alloy most commonly utilized for wire cloth weaving. It withstands outdoor exposure without rusting and resists oxidation at an elevated temperature up to 1400 Degrees Fahrenheit.

Type 304 L
Type 304 L is very similar to T-304, the difference being the reduced carbon content for better weaving and secondary welding characteristics.

Type 316
Stabilized by the addition of 2% molybdenum, T-316 is an "18-8" alloy.
Type 316 has better resistance to pitting corrosion than the other chromium-nickel stainless steels where brines, sulphur-bearing water or halogen salts, such as chlorides are present. A valuable property of T-316 is high creep strength at elevated temperatures. Other mechanical properties and fabricating characteristics are similar to T-304.
Wire cloth woven of T-316 has extensive use in chemical processing when better corrosion resistance is required than the regular chromium-nickel types.
