Mesh size refers to the measurement of the openings or gaps in a mesh material. It indicates the distance between adjacent strands or wires in the mesh structure. Mesh size is typically expressed in terms of the number of openings per linear inch or as the distance between the centers of two adjacent strands.
For example, if a mesh is described as “10 mesh,” it means that there are 10 openings per linear inch. The higher the mesh number, the smaller the openings in the mesh.
Mesh size is an important parameter when selecting a mesh material for various applications. It determines the size of particles or objects that can pass through the mesh and affects the level of filtration or protection provided by the mesh. Generally, a smaller mesh size indicates a finer or tighter mesh with smaller openings, whereas a larger mesh size corresponds to a coarser mesh with larger openings.
