woven as a plain weave. Each warp wire and each weft wire passes over and under the next adjacent complementary wire, as in normal Plain Weave, except the warp wires are larger in diameter than the weft wires. This allows a greater mesh count in the weft direction.
Characteristics: ”zero”—aperture, more solid than square or rectangular mesh, relative high open area, suitable for all kinds of filtration.
