HOW TO MEASURE WIRE CLOTH / WIRE MESH |
| |
|
| |
 |
Coarse
Mesh / Wire Mesh |
To
measure wire cloth(woven wire cloth, stainless steel wire cloth, wire cloth screen, wire cloth strainer, industrial wire cloth, metal cloth, wire cloth) properly, the mesh count should be
taken in both directions. On coarse meshes (mesh wire, woven wire mesh, wire mesh basket), this can be
accomplished by counting the number of openings per linear
inch measuring from wire center to wire center. After
taking the first count, a second count should be taken
at a 90 degree angle to the original measurement. The
mesh count of the cloth shown is 10x10.

 |
Fine
Mesh / Wire Mesh |
A
mesh counter is used to measure finer meshes of wire cloth (woven wire cloth, stainless steel wire cloth, wire cloth screen, wire cloth strainer, industrial wire cloth, metal cloth, wire cloth) accurately. The fine mesh count is taken the same way
the coarse mesh is computed by counting the number of
openings per linear inch in one direction and taking another
count at right angles to the original measurement.

Wire
Diameter |
| Wire
diameter is always checked with a micrometer caliper as
shown. Diameters of wires in both directions should be
checked. The illustration shows .025 diameter wire.
