Material grade selection is a critical factor when specifying stainless steel woven mesh. Among available options, grades 304 and 316 are the most commonly used. Anping Milesen Metal Net Products Co.,Ltd produces woven mesh using both grades to meet different environmental and operational requirements.
Grade 304 stainless steel contains chromium and nickel, providing good corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. It is widely used in indoor, industrial, and general-purpose applications.
Common uses include:
General filtration
Food processing equipment
Architectural applications
Industrial screening
Grade 316 stainless steel includes molybdenum, which improves resistance to chlorides and chemical corrosion. It is often selected for marine, chemical, or coastal environments.
Common uses include:
Chemical processing
Marine and offshore applications
Pharmaceutical production
High-corrosion environments
Corrosion Resistance: 316 performs better in chloride-rich environments
Cost: 304 is generally more economical
Availability: Both grades are widely available
Mechanical Properties: Similar strength for most applications
Selection depends on operating environment, exposure to chemicals, temperature, and budget. Consulting technical specifications helps ensure long-term performance.
Both 304 and 316 stainless steel woven mesh serve important roles in industrial applications. Choosing the correct grade ensures durability and reliable performance in the intended environment.
