Below is a list of our recommendations based on various insulation knitted wire mesh needs.
For maximum strength and temperature, we recommend the 0.0095” and 0.011” wire diameters.
For applications that are either sewn or require less frequent replacement, we recommend the 0.008” wire diameter.
For maximum flexibility, we recommend the 0.006” wire diameter.
For extremely high temperature applications, we recommend the crimped knitted mesh. Although it is reduced in coverage, the crimped knitted mesh allows for a slight air gap in extremely high temperature applications as well as counteracts the tendency of the material to toll back when cut.
For exhaust applications, we recommend versions 309 and 310 in Stainless Steel.
