Red Copper Wire Mesh
Copper wire mesh is also called red copper mesh. The purity of copper is 99.99%. The aperture of copper wire mesh can range from 2 meshes to 300 meshes, which can suit for different requirements. Except for pure copper woven wire mesh, there are copper alloy wire mesh, such as brass wire mesh and phosphor bronze wire mesh.
Copper woven wire mesh is non-magnetic, so it is also called shielding screen mesh in the circuits, laboratories and computer rooms, it also has outstanding wear resistance and sound insulation performance.
Due to the excellent conductive property of copper, Radio Frequency Interference Shielding, Grounding Grids and Lighting Arrestor Elements commonly incorporate copper wire cloth. Copper wire mesh applications may be limited due to its low tensile strength, poor resistance to abrasion and common acids.
The chemical composition of copper wire mesh is 99.9% copper, it is a soft and malleable material. Copper wire mesh is available in various mesh counts to produce specific opening sizes to meet our industrial users' requirements.

Features & Use of Red Copper Wire Mesh
Soft, easily soldered Ductile and malleable Excellent thermal and electrical conductivity 99%+ pure copper Red copper wire mesh is not only used in the electrical industry. Red copper wire mesh is also popular in the field of architectural decoration due to its unique color and flexible and weldable characteristics.Homeowners and designers choose red copper wire mesh for residential projects such as gutter guards, insect screens, fireplace screens, or decorative wall panels. Artists,including sculptors, woodworkers, metal artisans, and architects prefer copper mesh due to its ability to form complex shapes.
Application Of Copper Wire Mesh
Copper wire mesh is ductile, malleable and has high thermal and electrical conductivity. Because of these unique characteristics, it is often used as RFI shielding, in Faraday Cages, in roofing and HVAC and in countless electrical-based applications. Without a doubt, copper wire mesh is critical to industry, and as such, it is used in general industrial applications. Not surprisingly, copper mesh is often at the center of technological advancements in a broad range of fields.
Copper wire mesh's unique color makes it a very popular option for many different types of users, including designers, artists, architects and home owners. Home owners and designers opt for copper woven wire mesh for residential projects including gutter guards, soffit screens, insect screen, and fireplace screen. Sculptors, wood workers, metal artisans and architects also find copper mesh to be an excellent option because of its remarkable dark amber-red color and its broad appeal to a wide audience.

Brass Wire Mesh
Brass is another copper alloy made of copper and zinc. And like copper wire mesh, brass wire mesh is soft and malleable. But its corrosion resistance is not as good as bronze.As a wire mesh, the most commonly available brass woven wire mesh is referred to as "270 yellow brass" and has a chemical composition of approximately 65% copper, 35% zinc. "260 high brass", which consists of 70% copper and 30% zinc is also popular in the mesh industry, particularly on custom manufactured items.

Part specs of brass wire mesh
Yellow brass is the most popular brass alloy for wire cloth screens. Brass(typically 80% copper, 20% zinc) has much better abrasion resistance, better corrosion resistance and lower electrical conductivity when compared to copper. The tensile property of brass wire mesh is higher than those of copper with some sacrifice in formability. Brass will usually maintain its bright finish over time, will not darken with age as does copper.
Features & Use Of Brass Wire Mesh
Superior to copper abrasion resistance and tensile strength. 60-70% copper plus 30-40% zinc. Easily cut with hand tools. It can be soldered with lead or silver solder.
Zinc plays an important role in brass wire mesh, it increases the wear resistance and higher tensile strength of brass wire mesh. It also hardens the mesh, compared to its softer copper woven wire mesh counterpart. For these reasons, brass wire mesh is commonly used in filtration and separation applications. In most cases,industrial-grade brass woven wire mesh has a golden yellow color to it, and this unique color makes it appealing for use in architectural, decorative and even artistic applications. Like virtually all wire mesh and wire cloth, brass wire mesh is used in architectural, decorative and industrial applications.

Bronze Wire Mesh
Phosphor Bronze Cu 94 %, Sn 4.75%, P .25%
Phosphorus bronze wire mesh is formed of Copper, Tin and Phosphorous (Cu: 94%, Sn: 4.75%, and P: .25%). Phosphor bronze wire mesh, as it is commonly called, exhibits physical and anti-corrosive properties slightly superior to those of copper and zinc alloys. Phosphorus bronze wire mesh is typically found in the finer meshes (100 x 100 Mesh and finer). This material has great strength, durability and ductility. It is also resistant to common corrosive agents.
Bronze is an alloy mainly composed of copper. Therefore,phosphor bronze wire mesh and red copper wire mesh have many of the same characteristics, like malleability, durability,and ductility. The chemical composition of commonly used commercial bronze wire mesh is 90% Copper and 10% Zinc.
Main Material:Copper content 85%-90%, Zinc content 5%-15%.
Wire Diameter Range:0.03-5mm.
Mesh Size Range:Plain Weave: 4- 180 mesh, Twill Weave: Up to 500 mesh,
Dutch Weave: Can be customized as required.
Width Range:Usually, 0.914-3 m, can be cut according to customer requirements, the minimum is 3 mm.
Length Range:Usually 30 m, up to 150 m.
Mesh Type:Generally 30m/roll, various shapes can also be cut as required.
Features & Use Of Phosphorus Bronze Wire Mesh
Sturdier than copper and antique brownish-red color. Superior to brass in both strength and corrosion resistance. 90 % copper and 10 % zinc. Uses include highly technical to decorative. Phosphor bronze wire mesh has stronger corrosion resistance and durability than brass wire mesh. And it has a unique antique brownish-red color, which is an important reason for the use of phosphor bronze wire mesh from various marine applications to a commercial and residential insect screen. Phosphor bronze wire mesh is not as flexible and ductile as red copper wire mesh for industrial needs, so it is often used in filtration and separation applications.
