Plain and Twill Weave Wire Mesh

Metal Tec manufactures stainless steel plain and twill weave wire mesh to customer specifications.

Stainless steel plain weave wire mesh is woven by alternating the shute wire over and under the warp wire, creating a wire mesh. Stainless steel twill weave wire mesh is woven by passing the shute wire over and under two warp wires, creating a sturdier weave. This weave allows for the use of heavier wires, producing a stronger wire mesh.

Both weaves are economical; with the plain weave the most common and economic to produce. Uses of wire mesh include:

  1. Sizing
  2. Particle separation and filtering
  3. Particulate sifting
  4. Safety and equipment protection.

Industries served include aerospace, automotive, construction and oil & gas.

Metal Tec's custom manufacturing services include:

  1. Wide selection of metals and alloys, including special wire selections such as cable mesh and plastic-coated wire.
