SPECIFICATIONS OF BRASS WOVEN WIRE MESH
- Mesh Size Range: Brass mesh comes in many different sizes, from 20 mesh (larger openings) to 500 mesh (very small openings).
- Common Mesh Sizes: Some of the most frequently used mesh sizes include 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 80, 100, 200, and 500.
- Wire Thickness Range: The individual wires that make up the mesh can be thin, starting at 0.1 mm, or thick, going up to 2 mm.
- Common Wire Thicknesses: Typical wire thicknesses used in brass mesh are 0.1 mm, 0.15 mm, 0.2 mm, 0.3 mm, 0.5 mm, 1 mm, and 2 mm.
- Opening Size Range: The size of the holes in the mesh (aperture) changes depending on the mesh size, generally from 0.5 mm to 3 mm.
- Example Opening Sizes: For instance, a 20 mesh has holes about 1.0 mm wide, while a 100 mesh has holes around 0.15 mm wide.
- Opening Width Range: The width of each individual opening in the mesh can also be described as ranging from 0.05 mm to 1 mm.
- Weave Types: Plain Weave, Twill Weave, and Dutch Weave.
- Material Composition: The wire mesh is made entirely of Brass Alloy, which is a mixture of copper and zinc.
- Standard Surface Look: The natural color of brass mesh is golden.
- Alternative Surface Look: Sometimes, the brass mesh is electroplated to give it a different look or properties.
- Protection Options: To prevent rust or damage, coatings like lacquer can be applied to the mesh.
- Standard Sheet Size: Common sizes for sheets of brass mesh are 1 meter by 2 meters (about 39 inches by 79 inches), but other sizes can be made.
- Roll Width Range: When the mesh comes in a roll, the width is usually between 1 meter and 2 meters (39 to 79 inches).
- Roll Length Range: The length of a roll of brass mesh can vary quite a bit, from 10 meters to 100 meters (33 to 328 feet).
- Strength Measurement: The strength of the brass mesh (tensile strength) is usually between 450 and 800 N/mm², depending on how thick the wires are.
