Model Number: Stainless Steel Wire net-DLKT1003 Key Specifications/Special Features: Materials for weaving stainless steel wire mesh (wire cloth) are divided into type 304, type 304 L, type 316, and type 316 LFeatures:Type 304Type 304LType 316Type 316LOften referred to as 18-8 (18% chromium, 8% nickel) T-304 is the basic stainless alloy mostly and commonly utilized for wire cloth weaving It withstands outdoor exposure without rusting and resists oxidation at elevated temperature up to 1400F,typical applications for this wire cloth includes usage with chemicals, food products, pharmaceuticals, and conditions with exposure to moisture

Type 304 L is very similar to T-304, with the difference being reduced carbon content, which ensures better weaving and secondary welding characteristics

Stabilized by the addition of 2% molybdenum, T-316 is an 18-8 alloy Type 316 has better resistance to corrosion than other chromium-nickel stainless steels where brine, sulfur-bearing water or halogen salts (such as chlorides) are present A valuable property of T-316 is its high creep strength at elevated temperatures Other mechanical properties and fabricating characteristics are similar to T-304 Wire cloth woven from T-316 has extensive use in chemical processing, especially when better corrosion-resistant is required than for regular chromium-nickel types

Type 316 L is very similar to T-316, with the difference being reduced carbon content, which ensures better weaving and secondary welding characteristics
