Choosing a wire mesh filter for your project can be a challenge, especially if you do not have a lot of experience with filtration. However, choosing a filter is not as difficult as you may think. In fact, we broke down the process into 6 main points.
Yaoan Wiremesh supply professional and honest service.
Japanese standard mesh size is determined as the number of openings in 1 inch (25.4mm) of a screen. 100 mesh means there are 100 openings in 1 inch. If you are not sure of the optimum mesh size, please let us know the filter’s opening size or the size of the object being filtered. We can consult with you on what mesh will work best for you.
Above is the formula for calculating the opening rate of a filter. Even if the mesh is the same, the opening and opening rate can change according to the wire diameter.
Standard weave of the woven wire mesh .The vertical and horizontal lines keep a certain interval with each one of them intersecting. This is used with a variety of products.
Twilled weave is used in the instance when it’s relatively difficult to weave with a plain weave, such as high mesh or a weaving wire mesh with a large net size wire diameter. Vertical lines and horizontal lines keep a constant distance, and two or more lines mutually cross over each other.
It is weaved in the same manner as linen is. Horizontal lines are aligned in a linen style. Since a fine mesh can be obtained with a thick wire diameter, it is excellent with drainage performance under low pressure and has outstanding durability under high pressure.
Weaved in a linen-like shape using the twill weave. Horizontal lines are arranged with a twill weave. It can be produced more densely than the plain dutch weave, thus especially used when high filtration accuracy is required.
Metal fiber cloth is a material that compress and sinter small metal fibers. Composed of metal fibers diameter between 0.5 and 2.0 micrometers. They itself have a high filtration rating from 2µｍ and low pressure loss. We use weaved mesh for reinforcement.
When designing and incorporating mesh filters, there are three elements to the mesh that your mesh supplier needs to know to ensure your filter works as intended. Wire diameter, opening size, and mesh count all play a role in the effectiveness of a mesh filer.
The company is the world’s best Liquid Filter Wire Mesh supplier. We are your one-stop shop for all needs. Our staff are highly-specialized and will help you find the product you need.
When designing a mesh filter, a “good, better, best system is used. The “good” category illustrates when one of the three elements listed is provided. “Better” illustrates your ability to provide two elements, and “best” illustrates your ability to provide all three.
So, let’s say you send the mesh supplier a quote request for 200 feet of filter cloth with a mesh count of 50 microns. While the mesh supplier can provide an adequate recommendation, the inquirer’s exact needs remain unknown.
NOTE: Designing a woven wire filter may require you to convert mesh count to micron rating and vice versa. Use the following chart as a tool to help you comminate the needs of your operation:
If you were to submit a request for a 60x60 mesh filter with a wire diameter of ., the mesh supplier would have enough information to identify the mesh count and wire diameter. In turn, the mesh supplier can also calculate the opening size.
To that end, if any two elements are provided, the third can be determined; however, for best results, you should have all three ready before reaching out to the mesh filter supplier.

Sample Request
Woven wire mesh filter are a big investment. To ensure you are satisfied and confident with bulk orders, you have the opportunity to request samples of both cut pieces and fabricated components.
To do so, you must reach out and provide the following information:
Having said that, there are a few limitations to note. As quantity plays a significant role in the feasibility of a sample request, we will need to establish the resources and labor your request requires.
Typically, if a woven wire supplier doesn't have the capacity to produce the desired component or specification, your sample request will get turned down. Your request can also get turned down if the rest volume doesn't align with the amount of tooling and labor needed to produce the component.
When it comes to cost, the amount you can expect to pay depends of the form factor of the sample.
If you are simply looking for cut-to-size pieces to familiarize yourself with a particular specification, the price tag will be fairly inexpensive. Of course, the price will depend on the various parameters of the specification.
If you are looking to sample a custom component, however, the expected cost will spike significantly. This is due to the increased labor needed to set up the tooling and fabricate the component.
NOTE: The expected cost of a customized part will increase as the complexity of the part increases.
If after testing the requested sample you find the performance does not meet your expectations, you should set a meeting with the mesh supplier's engineering team. This will give you the opportunity to identify the reason where improvements can be made.
Maybe it's as simple as switching someihng like the weave pattern or alloy. Or maybe you discover that woven wire mesh isn't the answer.
Either way, it is critical that you sit down with the engineering team so you can coordinate your next steps.
Now, if you are satisfied with how the component turned out, you will want to establish how many finalized parts you will need. After you decide and determine whether you will need a purchase order or blanket order, the next step would be to request a quote.
Once you receive a quote, approve it, and submit a purchase or blanket order, production will start.
You can use one of the following avenues to request a quote:
