What is tungsten wire mesh?

Tungsten wire mesh screen is a woven wire mesh where warp and weft (woof / filling) wires are interlaced at right angles. In other words, each warp wire and each weft wire pass over one, two or other amounts of wires, and then under the next one, two or other amounts of wires.

For example, plain woven wire mesh is the mesh where warp and weft wires pass over one, and then under the next adjacent wire in both sides.

Twill woven wire mesh is the mesh where warp and weft wires pass over two, and then under the next two successive wires in both directions.

In addition, two distinct sets of wires are straight and at right angles to each other.

Weaving type of tungsten mesh screen

Plain weave, Twill weave, etc.

Weave types are different because of different interlacing of warp and weft wires and different wire diameter.

Mesh metrics: mesh counts, wire diameter and hole size

Mesh counts: 2-200 mesh

Wire diameter: the thickness of one single wire.

Opening / Aperture / Hole size: the distance between two adjacent parallel wires.

Micron size can also tell us something about the tungsten screen mesh. Because it typically refers to the nominal opening size. For example, 250 micron mesh screen possesses 0.25 mm aperture size. 75 micron mesh possesses 0.075 mm aperture size.

From the mesh screen size chart, we can also figure out that opening size of 40 mesh tungsten wire cloth will be 0.38 mm if its wire diameter is 0.254 mm. So we can say its micron size is about 380.
