Monel Wire Mesh
Monel wire mesh similar to the inconel wire mesh it is also a type of woven mesh which is weaved from nickel-based alloy wire. Monel is the alloy of nickel copper and other chemical elements. According to different chemical elements the monel wire mesh has Monel alloy 400 and monel alloy K500 materials.
Alloy 400 has outstanding corrosion resistance property in the flowing sea water. It can also resist to stress corrosion cracking. Alloy 400 is the most widely used monel material.
Alloy K500 also has outstanding corrosion resistance property like the Monel alloy 400 but the Monel alloy K500 has been added aluminum which can let the monel K500 offer greater tensile strength and hardness than the Monel alloy 400.
The monel wire mesh includes fine woven wire mesh which has the mesh size larger than 80 meshes and coarse woven wire mesh with the meshes no larger than 80 meshes.
Features of Monel Wire Mesh
- Corrosion resistance in the sea water.

- Corrosion resistance in the acidoid such as hydrofluoric acid phosphoric acid.
- Corrosion resistance in the alkaline matter.
- Resist to stress corrosion cracking.
- High tensile strength.
- Excellent hardness.
- Long lasting and durable.
