Description of Brass Wire Mesh
The presence of zinc in brass woven wire mesh is important because it provides added abrasion resistance and allows for higher tensile strengths; it also hardens the mesh, compared to its softer copper woven wire mesh counterpart. For these reasons, Brass Wire Mesh is commonly used in filtration and separation applications, and it is used to fabricate discs, especially in instances when electrical conductivity is not critical.

Brass Wire Mesh FAQs
Q1: What is brass wire mesh?
Brass wire mesh is a woven grid of brass wires, which is an alloy primarily consisting of copper and zinc. The specific properties of the mesh can vary depending on the ratio of these metals.

Q2: What are the properties of brass wire mesh?
Brass wire mesh is known for its corrosion resistance, especially against salt water, making it suitable for marine applications. It is also highly malleable, has good conductivity, and exhibits a golden appearance that is aesthetically pleasing.
Q3: How is brass wire mesh manufactured?
It is manufactured by weaving or welding brass wires together. The method of weaving can vary, leading to different mesh sizes and patterns, such as plain weave, twilled weave, or Dutch weave.
