Materials for weaving stainless steel wire mesh (wire cloth) are divided into type 304, type 304l, type 316 and type 316l
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 elevated temperatures up to 1,400 degrees. F typical applications for this wire cloth include use with chemicals, food products, pharmaceuticals and conditions with exposure to moisture
Type 304l:
Type 304l is very similar to t-304, with the difference being reduced carbon content; which ensures better weaving and secondary welding characteristics
Type 304l is very similar to t-304, with the difference being reduced carbon content; which ensures better weaving and secondary welding characteristics
Type 316:
Stabilized by the addition of 2% molybdenum, t-316 is an 18-8 alloy type 316 has better resistance to corrosion than other chromium-nickel stainless steels where brine, sulfur-bearing water or halogen salts (such as chlorides) are present a valuable property of t-316 is its high creep strength at elevated temperatures
Other mechanical properties and fabricating characteristics are similar to t-304
Wire cloth woven from t-316 has extensive use in chemical processing, especially when better corrosion resistance is required than for regular chromium-nickel types
Type 316l:
Type 316l is very similar to t-316, with the difference being reduced carbon content; which ensures better weaving and secondary welding characteristics
