Stainless Steel Wire Mesh for Filtration

High-precision woven mesh solutions for industrial filtration applications.

Our stainless steel wire mesh is widely used for filtration in oil, water, chemical, and food industries. Available in various mesh counts, micron ratings, and weave types, it ensures reliable performance under demanding conditions.

Types of Stainless Steel Wire Mesh for Filtration

🔵 1️⃣ Plain Weave Mesh

Structure:
Each wire passes alternately over and under one wire.

Features:

  • Uniform opening
  • Good strength and stability
  • Suitable for general filtration

Applications:
Used in basic filtration, screening, and protective applications.


🔵 2️⃣ Twill Weave Mesh

Structure:
Each wire passes over two and under two wires.

Features:

  • Higher mesh count
  • Better flexibility
  • Improved filtration precision

Applications:
Widely used in fine filtration and pressure-resistant environments.


🔵 3️⃣ Dutch Weave Mesh

Structure:
Different wire diameters in warp and weft create a dense structure.

Features:

  • Micron-level filtration
  • High strength
  • Excellent filtration performance

Applications:
Ideal for oil filtration, chemical filtration, and high-precision systems.

Plain Weave

The most common weaving, wires pass alternately over and under for uniform openings.

Twill Weave

Each wire passes alternately over two and under two for tighter mesh and higher strength.

Plain Dutch Weave

 Warp wires are thicker and denser, weft wires are finer, giving high filtration precision.

Twill Dutch Weave

Similar to plain Dutch but with a twill pattern — tighter and smoother surface.

Reverse Dutch Weave

Warp wires are finer, weft wires are thicker, allowing high pressure and easy backwash.

5-Heddle Weave

Flat and smooth surface with large open area, ideal for process belts and filtration.

Filtration Accuracy of Stainless Steel Wire Mesh

The filtration performance of stainless steel wire mesh is determined by mesh count, wire diameter, and weave type. These factors together define the effective filtration rating in microns.

Mesh Count vs Micron Rating

  • Higher mesh count generally means smaller openings
  • Micron rating indicates the size of particles that can be filtered
  • Different weave types result in different filtration accuracy

 

Typical Filtration Range:

  • Plain Weave: 50–500 microns
  • Twill Weave: 20–200 microns
  • Dutch Weave: 5–100 microns

 

For high-precision filtration, Dutch weave mesh is commonly used due to its dense structure and stable performance.
