Stainless steel wire mesh can be divided into 316 stainless steel mesh and 304 stainless steel mesh according to the material;

Advantages of 316 stainless steel mesh:

18Cr-12Ni-2.5Mo due to the addition of Mo, so its corrosion resistance, atmospheric corrosion resistance and high temperature strength is particularly good, can be used under harsh conditions, in salt water, sulfur water or brine salt than other chromium-nickel stainless steel is less likely to be corroded. The corrosion resistance is better than 304 stainless steel mesh, and it has good corrosion resistance in the production process of pulp and paper. Moreover, 316 stainless steel mesh is more resistant to marine and aggressive industrial atmospheric erosion than 304 stainless steel mesh.

Uses of 316 stainless steel mesh:

316 stainless steel mesh is mainly used for screening and filtration under acid and alkali environmental conditions, and is also used in mining, chemical, food, pharmaceutical and other industries.

Advantages of 304 stainless steel mesh:

304 stainless steel mesh has excellent stainless corrosion resistance and good intergranular corrosion resistance. In the experiment, it was concluded that in nitric acid with a concentration of ≤ 65% below the boiling temperature, 304 stainless steel mesh has strong corrosion resistance. It also has good corrosion resistance to alkali solution and most organic and inorganic acids.

The use of 304 stainless steel mesh: 304 stainless steel mesh is mainly used for screening and filtration under acid and alkali environmental conditions, and is also used in mining, chemical, food, pharmaceutical and other industries.
