In many cases, competitors offer design weave mesh that meets basic functionality requirements but nothing close to what would fully exceed customer expectations in their applications. Over the last few decades, stainless steel mesh has become continuously useful in applications such as kitchen door inserts, cabinetry, radiator covers and Infill panels. It takes the work of a gifted craftsman to deliver a product that is superior in both performance and aesthetic value. There are several types of design weave mesh available in the market.
Plain weave
Plain weave is the most commonly used type of stainless steel mesh. It has square openings, with each weft wire passing alternately under and over each warp wire. The warp wires run lengthwise in the mesh roll while weft wires run across the roll width. Both the weft and warp wires have an approximately equal diameter. For most commercial applications, any plain weave with an aperture size ranging between 0.05mm and 10.75 mm is appropriate
Hollander wave
The Hollander weave is a plain weave where the warp wires have a larger diameter than that of weft wires. In fact, it contains a limited number of warp wires that are interwoven with as many weft wires as can be knocked up. It forms a strong knit that can be used in high pressure filtrations
Twill-square wave
Twill square wave is also an advancement of the plain weave. It is designed in such a way that each weft wire alternatively crosses under and over two warp wires, creating a diagonal pattern. Just as in the plain weave design, the warp and weft wires have equal diameters. Twill square design stainless steel mesh is used to accommodate intensities that are higher than that of standard wire diameter. In most cases, specifications that are finer than 300 are twill woven.
