Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh Excellent Corrosion Resistance Especially
In Marine And Industrial Environments
Phosphor Bronze Woven Wire Mesh Introduction:
Copper woven wire mesh is crafted from pure copper wires (99.9% Cu)
or high-copper alloys. The wires are woven into grids using
techniques like plain, twill, or Dutch weaves. The process involves
drawing copper into thin wires, followed by annealing (heat
treatment) to enhance flexibility for intricate weaving. Unlike
brass or aluminum, copper’s natural softness requires careful
handling during fabrication.
Copper woven wire mesh is unparalleled in applications demanding
conductivity, corrosion resistance, and antimicrobial properties.
While softer and costlier than steel or aluminum, its unique
benefits make it indispensable in electronics, medical, marine, and
decorative sectors. Proper selection of weave, mesh size, and
surface treatment ensures optimal performance and longevity.
Weaving Methods: Plain Weave, Twill Weave
