The 316L stainless steel composition ensures excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments, making it suitable for seawater filtration, oil & gas, and chemical processing. The expanded structure provides a rigid, non-slip surface that maintains its shape under high pressure or mechanical stress, unlike woven wire mesh which can shift or fray over time.
Benefits for Your Application
- Precise Sieving: The 1x2mm opening allows accurate separation of particles down to 1mm, ideal for food grading, pharmaceutical powders, and abrasive materials.
- High Flow Capacity: Open area of ~40% reduces pressure drop while maintaining efficient filtration throughput.
- Easy Cleaning: Smooth diamond openings resist clogging; can be cleaned with ultrasonic or backwashing methods.
- Long Service Life: 316L stainless steel withstands repeated cleaning cycles and harsh chemicals without degradation.
- Versatile Formats: Available as sheets, rolls, or cut-to-size panels for integration into existing equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between expanded metal mesh and woven wire mesh for filtration?
A: Expanded metal mesh is made from a solid sheet that is slit and stretched, creating a one-piece structure without welds or intersections. This provides higher strength, no fraying, and a smoother surface for cleaning. Woven mesh can have loose wires or shifting, whereas expanded metal remains stable under pressure. -
Q: Can this mesh be used for liquid filtration?
A: Yes, the 316L stainless steel is resistant to corrosion from many liquids, including water, oils, mild acids, and alkalis. The 1x2mm opening is suitable for coarse filtration (e.g., removing particles larger than 1mm). For finer filtration, we offer other mesh sizes. -
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature?
A: 316L stainless steel can withstand continuous temperatures up to 800°C in oxidizing environments, though for filtration applications, typical operating temperatures are below 400°C. The actual limit depends on the specific application and load. -
Q: Do you provide custom sizes or shapes?
A: Absolutely. We can cut the mesh to your required dimensions, add edge framing (e.g., flat bar, angle), or fabricate it into panels, discs, or cylinders. Please provide your drawing or specifications for a custom quote. -
Q: Is the mesh available with a flattened surface?
A: Yes, we offer both standard (raised) and flattened expanded metal. Flattened mesh has a smooth, level surface that is easier to clean and provides a uniform thickness. Specify your preference when ordering. -
Q: How do I clean the mesh to maintain filtration efficiency?
A: You can use backwashing, ultrasonic cleaning, or gentle brushing with a soft brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the surface. For stubborn deposits, soaking in a mild detergent or acid solution (e.g., citric acid) is effective. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for orders?
A: For standard sizes, lead time is 7–10 working days. Custom orders may require 15–20 days depending on complexity. We can expedite rush orders upon request. -
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we offer free samples of A4 size or smaller, with the customer covering shipping costs. This allows you to evaluate the mesh performance before placing a bulk order.
