STAINLESS STEEL WIRE MESH [CLOTH]
| Material for weaving stainless steel
wire mesh ( wire cloth ) is divided into Type 304, Type 304 L, Type 316
and Type 316 L.
Type 304 Often referred to as "18-8" ( 18% chromium, 8% nickel ) T-304 is the basic stainless alloy mostly commonly |
 |
| utilized for wire cloth weaving. It withstands outdoor exposure without rusting and resists oxidation at an elevated temperature up to 1400 Degrees Fahrenheit. | |
| Typical wire cloth applications include use
with chemicals, food products, pharmaceuticals and exposure to
moisture. Type 304 L Type 304 L is very similar to T-304, the difference being the reduced carbon content for better weaving and secondary welding characteristics. Type 316 Stabilized by the addition of 2% molydbenum, T-316 is an "18-8" alloy. Type 316 has better resistance to pitting corrosion than the other chromium-nickel stainless steels where brines, sulphur-bearing water or halogen salts, such as chlorides are present. A valuable property of T-316 is high creep strength at elevated temperatures. Other mechanical properties and fabricating characteristics are similar to T-304. Wire cloth woven of T-316 has extensive use in chemical processing when better corrosion resistance is required than the regular chromium-nickel types. Type 316 L Type 316 L is very similar to T-316, the difference being the reduced carbon content for better wire cloth weaving and secondary welding characteristics. |
