We offer the full range of specifications from 6" aperture down to 1 micron nominal aperture. Wire cloth can offer wide ranging characteristics dependent on the configuration of wire thickness in relation to aperture size, as well as type of weave, and can vary in texture from being as fine, soft and flexible as silk to being as rigid as steel plate. Many of the properties of wire cloth are not available using alternative metal media.
Benefits of Fine Wire Mesh
- Widest range filtration, from over 6 inch aperture down to 1 micron nominal
- High open area / flow rate

- Special aperture requirements can be met without high tooling costs
- high durability
- self supporting
- suitable as upper for less rigid media
- Weaving process uses no punching, piercing or stretching operations that create stress induced weaknesses
- Point contact only on screened product allows freer screening and reduced binding.
