Stainless Steel Wire Cloth

   
 
TYPES OF WEAVES
   
 
woven wire cloth
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 (mesh wire, woven wire mesh, wire mesh basket) 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.
twilled weave wire cloth

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.

woven wire cloth
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 (mesh wire, woven wire mesh, wire mesh basket) 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.

Telas Stainless Steel Wire Cloth stands out when solutions for precise filtration and excellent corrosion resistance are needed. It excels in giving problem-free screening and is easily cleanable with excellent durability.

Woven stainless steel wire cloth is an ideal filter medium which can be easily worked and styled using available techniques.
In addition to the so called space wire weaves with square or rectangular openings which can be woven down to a fineness of 5 micron aperture, there are many combinations of filter weaves with retention in the micron range.
Applications:
Stainless steel wire cloth made from choice wires are used for separation of solids and clear filtration of liquids, as in the cleaning of fuels or hydraulic liquids, or in water treatment.
Square Opening Wire Cloth in Stainless Steel:

Plain weave stainless steel wire cloth:
This is the most commonly used style of weaving. Every second wire is woven in, warp and weft wires run over and under each other alternately and interlock. Plain weave wire meshes guarantee optimum accuracy of apertures or filter pores. Plain weave wire cloth use wires that are thinner than the corresponding apertures.

Twilled weave stainless steel wire cloth:
In cases where increased wire thickness is required in relation to the aperture size, which yield in the weaving process cannot withstand, this style of weave is chosen. At least two wires are woven in pairs, subsequently displacing a single wire. Mesh stability is controlled by a combination of aperture size and wire strength, and displays a slight diagonal trend. Using modern weaving technology, excellent stability of weave can be achieved.
