316 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh

<p>316 stainless steel wire mesh is an upgraded version of 304 grade. With higher nickel content and 2-3% molybdenum, it resists pitting and crevice corrosion far better, making it widely used in marine, chemical, pharmaceutical, food and seawater desalination industries for filtration and protection.<br/></p>

Product Details

316 stainless steel mesh is another important member of the stainless steel family. Molybdenum is the core difference between 316 and 304, significantly improving resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in media such as chlorides, seawater, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid.

316 stainless steel mesh also has a sibling, 316L stainless steel mesh. The "L" indicates a lower carbon content, making 316L stainless steel mesh more suitable for welding. Before purchasing, it is essential to understand your intended use to select the appropriate material.

 

With its excellent corrosion resistance, 316 stainless steel mesh is widely used in the following industries:

· Chemical and Petrochemical: Catalyst filtration, acid mist treatment, polymer melt filtration, reactor screens

· Marine and Shipbuilding: Seawater desalination pretreatment, ship vents, underwater equipment protection

· Food and Pharmaceutical: Syrup filtration, beverage clarification, liquid medicine sterilization filtration, fermentation air filtration

· Environmental Protection and Water Treatment: Industrial wastewater treatment, mariculture, swimming pool water circulation

· Medical Devices: Sterilization trays, surgical instrument baskets, implantable medical components

Although cost of 316 stainless steel mesh is 20%-30% higher than that of 304,But its service life is 3-10 times that of 304 in harsh environments such as chlorides and acids, resulting in lower long-term operating costs. It is the preferred material for industrial applications pursuing reliability and durability.
