BOLTING CLOTH - Stainless steel mesh woven in plain weave construction using small wire diameter, thus providing a high percentage open area.
CALENDERED WIRE CLOTH - Wire cloth that has passed through a pair of heavy rolls to reduce the thickness of the fabric, or to flatten the intersections to provide a smooth surface.
CLEAR OPENING (Also Space) - Space between adjacent parallel wires. COUNT (Also Mesh) - Number of openings in a linear inch. CRIMP - Corrugations in wires to permit locking them in place when perpendicular to each other. DOUBLE CRIMP - Warp and shute wires lay in each crimp. DOUBLE INTERMEDIATE CRIMP - Usually the warp wires lay in every crimp in the shute wires, and the shute wires lay in every other crimp in the warp wires. FILL WIRES (Also Shute Wires) - Wires running accross the width of the cloth as a woven. GAUGE - Wire size. To avoid possible errors, specify wire diameter in decimal sizes rather than gauge numbers. INTERMEDIATE CRIMP - Warp and shute wires lay in every other crimp. MARKET GRADES - Most commonly used sizes of industrial wire cloth specifications selected for general purpose work. MESH - Number of openings in a linear inch measured from the center of one wire to a point 1" distant. OPENING (Space) - Clear opening between adjacent parallel wires; not affected by diameter of the wire. PLAIN WEAVE - Each warp wire and each shute wire pass over one and under the next adjacent wire; wires are crimped in the weaving operation. PLAIN DUTCH WEAVE - Warp wires are generally larger than the shute wires. Shute wires are closely spaced to provide a dense weave with wedge shaped openings. SELVAGE - Finished edges running the length of the roll to prevent unravelling. SQUARE MESH - Wire cloth with mesh count the same in both directions. TWILLED WEAVE - Each warp wire and each shute wire pass successively over two and under the next adjacent pair of wires. TWILLED DUTCH WEAVE - Combination of Plain Dutch and Twilled weaves.
