Stainless Steel Wire Mesh

Stainless Steel Wire Mesh Woven wire cloth refers to wire fabrics made by weaving looms from stainless steel, brass, copper, Monel and other weavable metals. This page provides information on wire materials applied for wire cloth, properties, and specification of most popular kinds.   Wire materials for woven wire cloth in stainless steel: AISI 304, 304 L, 316 and 316 LAISI 304: This type is the basic stainless alloy mostly commonly used for wire cloth weaving. It offers excellent property against rusting and oxidation.   AISI 304 L: Materials similar to 304, with reduced carbon content for better weaving.AISI 316: Stainless stabilized by the addition of 2% molydbenum. It has better resistance to pitting corrosion than the other chromium-nickel stainless steels and high strength at elevated temperatures. Other mechanical properties and fabricating characteristics are similar to AISI304.   Wire cloth woven of T-316 has extensive use in chemical processing when better corrosion resistance is required than the regular chromium-nickel types.   AISI 316 L: Very similar to AISI316, yet with the reduced carbon content for better wire cloth weaving.   Brass and Phosphor Bronze Woven Wire Cloth Material: Brass wire, copper wire and phosphor bronze wire.
