Brass wire mesh is made from brass, an alloy of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), typically in ratios like 70/30 or 80/20. The zinc content enhances strength and corrosion resistance while retaining malleability. Manufacturing involves drawing brass into wires, followed by weaving (plain, twill, or Dutch weave) or welding. Annealing may be used to soften the material for intricate weaves.

Brass wire mesh excels in applications requiring corrosion resistance, aesthetics, antimicrobial properties, or non-sparking safety. While costlier than aluminum or steel, its unique benefits make it indispensable in marine, decorative, medical, and hazardous environments. Proper selection of alloy, weave, and surface treatment ensures longevity and performance.

Our main specifications

Other specifications according to your requirements.

Corrosion Resistance: Excellent in marine and humid environments; resistant to saltwater and oxidation.

Antimicrobial: Naturally inhibits bacterial growth, ideal for sanitary applications.

Conductivity: Good electrical and thermal conductivity (lower than pure copper but higher than many alloys).

Aesthetic Appeal: Gold-like luster, often used decoratively; develops a patina over time.

Malleability/Ductility: Easily shaped without cracking.

Non-Sparking: Safe for flammable or explosive environments.

Weight: Heavier than aluminum but lighter than steel.

Types and Variations:

Weave Patterns: Plain (standard), twill (dense), Dutch (fine filtration).

Mesh Specifications: Wire diameter (18–40 gauge), mesh count (2–200 openings per inch).

Alloys: 70/30 (high corrosion resistance) vs. 80/20 (better formability).

Surface Treatments: Lacquering or nickel plating to prevent tarnishing.

Decorative: Architectural grilles, lighting fixtures, and art installations.
