Plain Dutch and Twill Dutch Weave Wire Mesh

Metal Tec manufactures Stainless Steel Plain Dutch and Twill Dutch Weave Wire Mesh to meet clients’ filtration needs. Dutch weave filter mesh provides superior filtration capabilities for a wide range of applications, including pressure, fuel and liquid filters for the aerospace, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, mining and waste water treatment industries.

Plain Dutch Weave Wire Mesh is woven using two sizes of wire. Smaller wires, as small as micron size, are used in the shute direction and are woven with a larger warp wire. The smaller wires are woven tightly together, providing a tight mesh for filtering. The larger wire provides strength to the mesh. The primary uses of this wire cloth are filtration and separation of liquid and slurry products.

Twill Dutch Weave Wire Mesh combines Dutch and twill weaving to provide a fine mesh filtering cloth. Shute wires are passed over and under two warp wires, providing a tight, fine filter with tapered openings. The weaving process allows for the use of very fine wires, to micron size, producing filtering mesh for gas and liquid applications.

Metal Tec offers custom wire configurations for wire cloth to meet the specific needs of its clients. For Dutch weaves micron-grade wire is most commonly used. In addition, METAL TEC has the capability to manufacture:

  1. Extra long roll or coils up to 800’ with no seams
  2. Extra wide widths up to 120”

We offer a wide range of metals and alloys to provide the best material or combination of materials for the filter mesh.

A full range of conversion services are available. These include slitting and shearing, annealing and stretching. Metal Tec can also provide information on the filtration performance of the mesh to ensure it meets product requirements.

Metal Tec’s Stainless Steel Plain Dutch and Twill Dutch weave wire mesh products are in compliance with ISO 9001:2008 and ASTM standards. Most are available in DFARS-compliant materials. Metal Tec will also manufacture to ISO, DIN and client requirements. Our expert staff is available to help you select or design the most effective wire cloth product for your application.
