Corrosion Resistant Monel K500 Filter Wire Mesh 400 Grade
Product Spotlights
From the factory floor of Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory (established 1998), we present our Corrosion Resistant Monel K500 Filter Wire Mesh 400 Grade – a premium filtration solution engineered for demanding environments. With over two decades of expertise in wire mesh manufacturing and annual exports exceeding US$5 million, we deliver consistent quality that meets global industrial standards. This Monel K500 mesh combines exceptional corrosion resistance with precise 400-micron filtration, making it ideal for chemical processing, marine applications, and oil & gas filtration where reliability is non-negotiable.
Our Monel K500 alloy wire mesh is crafted from a nickel-copper alloy with added aluminum and titanium for enhanced strength and age-hardening capability. The 400 mesh count (400 openings per linear inch) provides fine filtration while maintaining high flow rates. Below we detail the technical specifications and key benefits.

Key Features & Benefits
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: Monel K500 offers outstanding resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid, and alkaline environments. It outperforms stainless steel in aggressive chemical media, extending service life in filtration systems.
- High Strength & Hardness: Through age-hardening, Monel K500 achieves tensile strength comparable to many steels, yet retains excellent ductility. This allows the mesh to withstand high differential pressure without deformation.
- Fine Filtration Accuracy: The 400-grade mesh (37 micron opening) effectively captures particles down to 40 microns, suitable for catalyst recovery, pharmaceutical filtration, and fine chemical processing.
- Excellent Flow Capacity: With ~30% open area, the mesh offers high permeability while maintaining precise particle retention. This reduces pressure drop across the filter element.
- Thermal Stability: Retains mechanical properties up to 450°C, making it suitable for hot gas filtration and high-temperature process streams.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in rolls, sheets, cut pieces, or fabricated filter discs. Width and length can be tailored to your specific equipment requirements.
Typical Applications
- Chemical processing: filter media for corrosive liquors, acids, and solvents
- Marine and offshore: seawater filtration, desalination plants, ballast water treatment
- Oil & gas: fine filtration of sour gas, amine solutions, and hydraulic fluids
- Pharmaceuticals: sterile filtration of aggressive intermediates
- Mining and metallurgy: slurry filtration, precious metal recovery
Quality Assurance & Trust
Our factory, located in Hengshui, Hebei (the wire mesh capital of China), has been producing industrial wire meshes since 1998. We export to over 20 countries across North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East, with annual export value reaching US$5–10 million. Each roll of Monel K500 mesh is inspected for weave uniformity, aperture consistency, and chemical composition. We offer samples for testing and can provide material test certificates upon request. Our experienced team supports OEM/ODM requirements, and we ship from Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, or Foshan ports with fast turnaround times.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What makes Monel K500 different from standard Monel 400?
A: Monel K500 has added aluminum and titanium, allowing age-hardening heat treatment that increases strength and hardness significantly (up to 3 times higher yield strength than Monel 400). It also offers better wear resistance while maintaining corrosion resistance.
Q2: Can this mesh be used for filtering seawater?
A: Yes, Monel K500 is highly resistant to seawater corrosion, including pitting and crevice corrosion. It is commonly used in marine filtration systems.
Q3: What is the maximum temperature this mesh can withstand?
A: In oxidizing atmospheres, the mesh can be used up to 450°C (840°F). In reducing or vacuum conditions, lower temperatures may apply. Please consult our technical team for your specific environment.
Q4: Is the mesh available in different weave patterns?
A: The standard weave is plain weave for 400 mesh. For higher strength or special filtration needs, twill weave or Dutch weave can be manufactured on request. Custom weaves are available.
Q5: How do you ensure the aperture size consistency?
A: We use advanced weaving machines and conduct optical inspection on each roll. The tolerance for aperture size is within ±5% of nominal specification.
Q6: Can you supply this mesh in cut-to-size pads or discs?
A: Yes, we offer custom cutting, slitting, shearing, and fabrication of filter elements. You can provide dimensions, and we will produce the mesh accordingly.
Q7: What is the lead time for orders?
A: For standard rolls (1m x 30m), we can ship within 7-10 working days. Custom sizes or large quantities may require 15-20 working days. Rush orders are possible upon request.
Q8: Does the mesh come with a material certificate?
A: Yes, a mill test certificate (MTC) verifying chemical composition and mechanical properties is provided with each shipment. Additional third-party inspection is available at extra cost.
