Wire Cloth
Wire cloth is able to be fabricated with various densities. The most common materials used for wire cloth include aluminum, brass, bronze,
copper, steel and stainless steel. Each of these materials provide different
spaces throughout the weave as well as serve different purposes due
to the different densities supplied by each particular material.

Aluminum Wire Cloth
-
Good corrosion resistance
-
Lighter than steel or stainless steel
High-Temperature Nickel Chromium Wire Cloth
-
Otherwise known as Nichrome
-
This alloy can withstand high temperatures while resisting oxidation and scale formation
-
An excellent heat conductor
-
Nonsparking and nonmagnetic
-
Commonly used in furnaces and ovens
Common applications:
-
Architectural framework
-
Conveyor belts
-
Decor
-
Draining paper pulp
-
Fencing for animals
-
Insect screening
-
Screening machinery

Sifting
-
Window screens
Extra-Rigid Aluminum
Wire Cloth
-
Also known as space cloth
-
Wires are crimped where they intersect to maintain an accurate opening size when used with heavy material adding strength and rigidity
-
Commonly used for barriers, dividers, guards and shields
Brass Wire Cloth
-
Good abrasion resistance
-
Commonly used in marine environments because it is more corrosion resistant to salt water than stainless steel
Precision Stainless
Steel Wire Cloth
-
Openings are tightly woven for accurate sifting results
