Our 316 grade heavy duty stainless steel mesh is specifically engineered to meet the rigorous demands of the food and marine industries, where durability and corrosion resistance are paramount. This mesh combines the strength and versatility of stainless steel with advanced specifications tailored for heavy-duty applications.
Featuring an aperture size of 6.87mm and a wire diameter of 1.6mm, this mesh is designed to withstand tough conditions while providing a significant open area of 66%. This large open area ensures optimal airflow and light penetration, making it ideal for applications that require a robust yet breathable barrier.
The mesh’s configuration, with 3 holes per linear inch (3 LPI), offers a coarse yet highly effective screening or filtering medium, capable of handling large particles without sacrificing structural integrity. This makes it perfect for use in heavy-duty protective barriers, large particle filtration systems, and anywhere a strong, open mesh is required.
SS316 stainless steel, known for its superior corrosion resistance, is enhanced with molybdenum, which grants it greater protection against corrosion factors like saltwater, making it the material of choice for marine applications. Additionally, its higher resistance to heat compared to the standard 304 grade extends its usability under varying temperature conditions, which is often required in food processing and preparation.
SS316’s durability is complemented by its excellent forming and welding properties, allowing for ease of fabrication and installation in complex structures such as boat fittings, laboratory benches, and coastal architectural panels. Its comprehensive composition includes key elements such as Chromium, Molybdenum, and Nickel, which collectively enhance its strength and resistance.
Given its robust properties and resistance to harsh environments, SS316 grade mesh is not only functional but also aesthetically pleasing, making it suitable for visible installations like railings and architectural details where style does not compromise substance.
Wire mesh materials are also available in brass, copper, galvanised steel and blue PVC.
