316 Stainless Steel Filter Mesh - High Temperature Resistant Durable Screening

Product Overview:

Our 316 Stainless Steel Filter Mesh is engineered for extreme durability and precision filtration in demanding industrial environments. Made from marine-grade 316 stainless steel, this mesh offers superior corrosion resistance, high-temperature stability (up to 800°C), and long-lasting structural integrity, making it ideal for chemical processing, oil & gas, and food-grade applications.

Key Features:

1.Premium 316 Stainless Steel

• 18% chromium + 2-3% molybdenum composition resists pitting/crevice corrosion
• Saltwater/acid/alkali resistant – outperforms 304 SS in harsh environments

2.High-Temperature Performance

• Withstands continuous 800°C / intermittent 900°C
• No deformation or oxidation scaling

3.Precision Filtration

• Standard mesh counts: 10-500 (custom down to 1μm)
• Smooth surface finish (Ra≤0.6μm) prevents particle trapping

4.Mechanical Strength

• Tensile strength: ≥520MPa
• Elongation: ≥40% (maintains shape under pressure)

5.Easy Integration

• Available as rolls, discs, or custom-shaped filters
• Weld-ready edges for modular systems

FAQ:

Q1: What is 316 stainless steel mesh good for?
A: It’s perfect for harsh environments like seawater, chemicals, and high heat. Common uses include oil filters, food processing, and medical equipment.

Q3: Is this mesh stronger than regular steel wire mesh?
A: Yes, 316 stainless steel is much stronger and won’t rust like normal steel, even in wet or salty conditions.

Q4: What sizes are available?
A: We offer fine to coarse mesh (10-500 holes per inch) and custom sizes if needed.

Q5: How long does it last?
A: With proper care, it can last 10+ years even in tough conditions.

Q6: Can I cut or shape it myself?
A: Yes, but for best results, we recommend professional laser or waterjet cutting to avoid fraying.

Q7: Is it safe for food or medical use?
A: Yes! It meets FDA standards for food and medical safety.

Q8: How do I clean it?
A: Use warm water, mild soap, or an ultrasonic cleaner for deep cleaning.
