Commonly used materials for woven wire mesh

Commonly used materials for woven wire mesh include:

1. Plain Carbon Steel:

• Mild Steel: Commonly used in industrial wire mesh manufacturing due to its tensile strength and high impact resistance. Although the wear and corrosion resistance is low, various special protective coatings can be applied, such as galvanized and tin coatings.

• High carbon steel: used for wire mesh that needs to be resistant to wear, impact and heavy loads. This alloy is used to ensure that the mesh has a long life and does not become brittle.

• Oil Tempered Steel Wire: is a high carbon steel wire that has been specially tempered to provide greater strength and extra wear resistance for use in extremely abrasive conditions.

2. Stainless Steels:

• 304 Stainless Steel: A basic stainless steel alloy containing 18% chromium and 8% nickel, which has excellent corrosion resistance and is suitable for use in the food, chemical and pharmaceutical industries.

• 304L stainless steel: Same as 304 stainless steel, but has lower carbon content and is more suitable for welding.

• 316 stainless steel: 2% molybdenum is added to 304 stainless steel to provide better corrosion resistance and is suitable for salt water, salt water and chlorine-containing salt environments.

• 316L stainless steel: Same as 316 stainless steel, but has lower carbon content and is more suitable for welding.

• 347 Stainless Steel: Similar to 316 Stainless Steel, with the added stabilizing element niobium for use in welded components.

• 321 Stainless Steel: Similar to 347 Stainless Steel, but with titanium added instead of niobium, typically used for non-welded components.

• 317 Stainless Steel: Contains a higher proportion of nickel and molybdenum, providing enhanced corrosion resistance.

• 309 Stainless Steel: Heat-resistant alloy suitable for temperatures up to 1700°F.

• 310 Stainless Steel: Contains more nickel than 309 stainless steel and is suitable for temperatures up to 2000°F.

• 330 Stainless Steel: A nickel-chromium alloy suitable for temperatures up to 1650°F.

3. Copper and copper alloys:

• Copper: has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, resistance to atmospheric corrosion, salt water and salt water.

• Brass: divided into high brass (70% copper, 30% zinc) and low brass (80% copper, 20% zinc), with better wear resistance, lower electrical conductivity and better corrosion resistance sex.

• Bronze: Commercial bronze contains 90% copper and 10% tin and has superior corrosion resistance.

• Phosphor bronze: Contains 4% to 9% tin and about 0.25% phosphorus, which has good corrosion resistance, strength and toughness.

4. Aluminum and aluminum alloys:

• 5056 alloy (containing magnesium, manganese and chromium) is commonly used and is widely used in wire mesh products due to its light weight, corrosion resistance and ease of processing.

5. Nickel and Nickel Alloys:

• Pure nickel: has good corrosion resistance and has the ability to protect itself in reducing environments.

• Monel 400: Contains about 67% nickel, 28% copper and 5% other elements. It is very corrosion-resistant and was often used in the food processing industry.

• Hastelloy B and Hastelloy C: used to resist corrosion by hydrochloric acid and strong oxidants respectively, while having good high temperature performance.

The selection of these materials generally depends on the intended use and considerations of strength, wear resistance, corrosion resistance and heat resistance.
