The knitted wire mesh can be made of mono-filament wires or multi-filament wires. The mono-filament knitted wire mesh features simple structure and economical, which is widely used in the common applications. The multi-filament knitted wire mesh has higher strength than the mono-filament knitted wire mesh. The multi-filament knitted wire mesh is commonly used in the heavy duty applications.

Knitting is a processing method, which can making metal materials into wire mesh or fabrics. Knitted wire mesh utilizes a much broader range of materials and can be used in various applications and industrial fields.

Materials of knitted wire mesh
Knitted wire mesh is available for various materials. They have different advantages and can be used in different applications.
Stainless steel wires. It features acid and alkali resistance, high temperature resistance and can be used in harshest environments.
Copper wire. Good shielding performance, corrosion and rust resistance. Can be used as shielding meshes.
Brass wires. Similar to copper wire, which has bright color and good shielding performance.
Galvanizes wire. Economical and durable materials. Corrosion resistance for common and heavy duty applications.
Nickel wire.
Other alloy wire.
Polypropylene. Plastic material for lightweight and economical. Low cost and corrosion resistance.

Applications of knitted wire mesh
1)Knitted wire mesh is widely used as liquid-gas filtration materials in various fields of industries.
2)Compressed knitted mesh is commonly used as filtering materials in the industries. It can be used as engine breathers in the vehicles.
3)Knitted wire mesh can be used as shielding mesh in the electronics and other fields.
4)Knitted wire mesh can be used to eliminate the mist as the knitted mesh mist eliminator or demister pad.
5)Knitted wire mesh can be made into knitted cleaning balls to clean kitchenware and other mechanical parts needed cleaning.
