Nickel Wire Mesh weaving method

Plain weave

Each warp wire alternately passes through the top and bottom of each weft wire to be 90°. The warp wire and weft wire are the same diameter and the opening size is the same;

Twill weave

Made by alternating each weft wire up and down two warp wire, interleaving on successive warp wire;

Dutch weaving

The warp wire adopts a thick mesh, the weft wire adopts a fine mesh, and the weft wire alternately passes up and down the two warp wire, forming a fine mesh in one direction, and a thick mesh in the other direction, forming a tight woven mesh with a conical or wedge opening;

Reverse dutch weave

Contrary to the layout of plain dutch weaving, the warp wire is made of fine mesh (mesh wire, woven wire mesh), the weft wire is made of thick mesh, and the number of wires is relatively small;

Five-Heddle weaving

Each warp wire alternately passes through the top and bottom of each weft wire to be 90°. The warp wire and weft wire are the same diameter and the opening size is the same;

Herringbone weave

It is a special twill weave mesh, and the direction of the twill fabric is reversed every 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 mm according to the width and specific use, forming a skeleton shape similar to that of herring;

Crimped weave

Nickel wire mesh is a high-performance woven metal mesh made entirely from nickel, a corrosion-resistant and heat-resistant metal known for its mechanical strength and chemical stability. Nickel wire mesh is widely used in industries where durability, corrosion resistance, and chemical inertness are essential, such as chemical processing, petrochemical, food processing, pharmaceuticals, electronics, aerospace, and marine applications. Its excellent mechanical properties, resistance to oxidation, and high-temperature tolerance make nickel wire mesh an ideal choice for filtration, screening, catalyst support, protective barriers, and electronic shielding applications.

Material Composition and Properties

Nickel wire mesh is composed of pure nickel or high-grade nickel alloys. The properties of nickel make it highly suitable for challenging environments:

1. Corrosion Resistance – Nickel is highly resistant to corrosion in acidic, alkaline, and saline environments. This makes it ideal for chemical processing, marine, and high-humidity conditions.

2. High Temperature Tolerance – Nickel can withstand elevated temperatures without losing structural integrity or mechanical strength, making it suitable for high-temperature filtration and industrial applications.

3. Mechanical Strength – Nickel’s high tensile strength provides excellent durability and resistance to mechanical stress.

4. Chemical Inertness – Nickel does not easily react with most chemicals, allowing it to be used in aggressive chemical environments.

5. Electrical Conductivity – While not as conductive as copper, nickel still provides moderate electrical conductivity, suitable for certain electronic or EMI shielding applications.

Key Features of Nickel Wire Mesh

1. Durability – Resistant to wear, abrasion, and mechanical stress.

2. Corrosion and Oxidation Resistance – Performs well in harsh chemical, marine, and industrial environments.

6. Versatile Applications – Can be used in filtration, chemical processing, aerospace, electronics, protective screens, and architectural designs.

Manufacturing Process

The production of nickel wire mesh requires precise control over wire quality, diameter, and weaving patterns to ensure optimal performance:

1. Wire Drawing – Nickel wire is drawn through precision dies to achieve the required diameter and tensile strength.

2. Annealing – Heat treatment improves flexibility and ductility, preventing breakage during weaving.

3. Weaving – Wire is woven into mesh using mechanical or automatic looms. Different weave patterns can be used depending on the application:

   • Plain Weave – Simple over-and-under pattern, uniform openings, balanced strength.

   • Twill Weave – Diagonal pattern providing finer filtration and enhanced mechanical strength.

   • Dutch Weave – Dense weave suitable for high-pressure filtration and precision separation.

4. Finishing – The mesh may undergo cleaning, polishing, or coating to improve surface quality, corrosion resistance, and aesthetics.
