Our wire mesh stainless steel filters are useful in a wide range of applications that require a variety of openings. These stainless mesh filters can be used in conjunction with perforated metal and expanded metal. Stainless wire mesh filters are ideal for filtration used in adverse environmental conditions.
1. Building and Construction
Wire mesh is commonly used to rebuild infrastructure along the country's east coast. Although the construction industry has grown significantly since the Civil War, stainless steel wire mesh continues to be a staple for building and construction companies across the country. Applications of wire mesh in the building and construction industry include, but are not limited to
Wall and rock retention
Bridge and highway maintenance
Enclosures and safety guards
Infill panels
Wire Mesh Deep Processed Products
2. Food Preparation and Processing
While the importance of wire baskets may not be apparent to the average consumer, if you run a food preparation or processing company, the benefits of high-quality steel wire baskets are obvious. Stainless steel wire mesh is also commonly used in the food preparation and processing industry for items such as barbecue grills, deep frying baskets, and domed food covers.
3. Agriculture
Wire mesh has been used on farms across the country for centuries. Whether used for crop protection or fence repair, farmers have found seemingly endless uses for wire mesh. Stainless steel wire mesh is commonly used for many agricultural tasks, such as
Compost bins
Chicken coops
Fencing
Planters
Pest Control
Livestock barriers
Equipment Repairs
Soil or Grain Sifting
Stainless Steel Dutch Woven Mesh
4. Oil refineries and oil fields
Stainless steel wire mesh is ideal for use in refineries and oil fields because the process of refining crude oil involves exposure to harsh chemicals and high temperatures that can lead to other forms of metal corrosion. Whether refineries plan to use wire mesh for storage cabinets or oil filtration, stainless steel remains a superior metal for withstanding harsh refinery conditions.
Stainless steel wire mesh filters are also used in:
Aerospace and oil/gas industries
Solvents, paints, water
Filtration, sifting, sizing
Vents
Baskets
Strainers
Faucet Screens
Insect Screens
Decorative wire mesh grilles
Guards
Decorative/craft applications
Stainless wire mesh is durable, cleanable, and reusable making it an economical choice for most filtering projects.
BZWIREMESH produces various stainless steel filter mesh products, including stainless steel square hole mesh, stainless steel dutch woven mesh, three-heddle wire mesh, five-heddle wire mesh, and deep processed metal wire mesh products such as stainless steel mesh filters, corrugated gauze packing, and can meet the requirements for different clients.
Five-heddle Wire Mesh
Five-heddle wire mesh is a special type of woven wire mesh, the special woven craft gives the mesh a smooth surface on one side, and it can increase the liquid fluidity. The five-heddle wire mesh is commonly used as the material of corrugated gauze packing.

Stainless steel square hole mesh has the same mesh count and wire diameter in warp and weft direction, and the mesh hole shape is square. The mesh count range of stainless steel square hole mesh is from 1 to 625, max filtering accuracy is 20μm. The commonly used material of stainless steel square hole mesh is SS304, SS316, and SS316L. BZWIREMESH can also produce special materials according to clients&#; requirements.
Stainless steel dutch woven mesh has different mesh counts and wire diameters in warp and weft directions, and it has a higher mesh count and is also thicker. The strength and filtration precision are also better, the max mesh count can be and the filtration precision is 3μm.

Stainless steel is by far one of the most widely used alloys in the wire mesh industry. It offers a balance between performance and affordability that most filtration and screening operations find favorable.
But sometimes stainless steel isn't necessarily the answer. It's for this reason that you must know how stainless steel compares to other popular alloys, such as brass.
W.S. Tyler has been in the wire mesh business for over 140 years and strives to help customers like you design wire mesh solutions that bring value.
For that reason, we wrote the following article to establish how brass and stainless steel compare so you can get a better idea of which alloy fits your needs best.
What you will learn:
How brass is defined in the wire mesh industry
The benefits of using brass wire mesh
How stainless steel is defined in the wire mesh industry
What alloy makes sense for your specific needs
What Is Brass?
Classified as a copper alloy, brass is a wire mesh alloy known for its copper and zinc composition. As brass is classified based on its copper to zinc content ratio, it should be noted that W.S. Tyler uses a specialized brass constant of 85% copper and 15% zinc when weaving wire mesh.
This particular brass composition allows wire mesh to combat rusting.
Why Use Brass Wire Mesh?
When wire mesh first gained traction as a universal screening and filtration media, it was vastly cheaper than stainless steel. As time passed, however, brass wire mesh pricing began to exceed stainless steel and is currently more expensive.
That said, there are still beneficial qualities that, if used correctly, can outweigh the cost drawbacks.
Brass is a softer material, making it easier to form. When working with fabricated wire mesh components, this can prove increasingly beneficial as the part design becomes more complex.
To that end, brass has significant resistance to corrosion. To be more specific, by being made from copper and zinc, brass can withstand the corrosive effects of oxidation.
One of the more unique qualities of brass is its ability to kill certain bacteria when they come into contact with the surface of the alloy. There are specific ions from the cooper that grants these capabilities, which can stand out when an application demands sanitary materials be used.
What Is Stainless Steel?
Stainless steel is a metal alloy defined by the amount of carbon in its composition. It also contains chromium, which is added manually as it does not exist in steel naturally.
This is done when the steel is in a molten state to ensure the chromium is bonded on a molecular level.
Stainless steel is one of the most widely used alloys used to weave wire mesh. With that, you will generally see woven wire mesh come in the form of 300 series or 400 series stainless steel.
Why Use Stainless Steel Mesh?
It has been established that the inclusion of chromium is required to be considered stainless steel. That said, having chromium part of its composition makes stainless steel significantly resistant to corrosion.
This is particularly true when exposed to alkaline and acidic environments in industrial settings.
The presence of chromium also affords stainless steel the ability to perform under tremendous heat. Chromium helps it to resist oxidation that often occurs when subjected to high-heat applications.
Above all, however, the durability of stainless steel is one of the driving factors as to why it's widely used today. This means no matter if your application subjects the mesh to high impacts, variating temperatures, etc., the mesh profile will remain preserved longer than other materials, such as brass.
What Alloy Should I Use?
When designing a wire mesh solution, the alloy you use should be based on what best accommodates the needs of your operation.
As brass is much softer than stainless steel, it will more than likely deteriorate quicker. This means if you are screening or filtering coarse or abrasive materials, stainless steel may be the better option.
If your industry calls for a specific level of sanitization, however, then the bacteria-killing properties of brass may be better suited for your process.
Optimal Wire Mesh Performance Starts With Its Alloy
Brass and stainless are both alloys that are commonly used to weave woven wire mesh. What's important to know is what benefits these alloys offer, so you ensure your wire mesh solution provides undeniable value.
Brass is a relatively malleable alloy with the unique trait of killing certain bacteria on contact. Stainless steel is a versatile alloy that offers a cost-effective performance.
Now, to ensure your wire mesh provides long-lasting filtration and screening, it is vital that you get to know the various alloys that can be used to fabricate your wire mesh solution. This may mean you have to step outside your comfort zone and explore the less popular specialty alloys such as Hastelloy and duplex.
Here at W.S. Tyler, we understand that designing the best possible wire mesh can be a daunting task. We strive to leverage our 140 years of experience to help you gain confidence in how your wire mesh performs.
