Value Collection K0040040321212W Wire Cloth 12x12 in

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION K0040040321212W is a stainless steel wire cloth panel used for filtration, screening, venting, and general industrial or mechanical applications. Woven from Type 304 stainless steel wire, this mesh panel measures 12 inches by 12 inches overall and features a 21-wire-gauge wire diameter of 0.032 inches with a width opening of 0.218 inches per mesh cell. The Type 304 alloy offers solid corrosion resistance, making it suitable for use in wet, humid, or chemically active environments. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors commonly use wire cloth for equipment guarding, vent screening, and custom filter fabrication.

This wire cloth panel fits residential and light commercial applications where a pre-cut, single-piece mesh section is needed. Typical uses include intake and exhaust vent screening, equipment cabinet ventilation inserts, drain screening, and strainer fabrication. The 0.218-inch opening size allows adequate airflow or fluid flow while blocking debris, pests, and large particulates. The 12-by-12-inch sheet size suits standard vent openings and is easy to cut or form to fit custom dimensions on the jobsite.

Installation Notes

Wire cloth panels are typically installed by HVAC technicians, plumbers, or general mechanical contractors using standard tin snips or metal shears to trim the panel to the required dimensions. Wear cut-resistant gloves when handling and cutting wire mesh, as cut edges are sharp. Secure the panel using appropriate fasteners, frames, or retaining clips suited to the application. Ensure the installation location is free of power, flow, or pressure before fitting the mesh section into service.
