Value Collection K02002001801212 Wire Cloth 26 Gauge

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION K02002001801212 is a stainless steel wire cloth panel used for filtration, screening, and separation applications across industrial, HVAC, and mechanical service work. Woven from Type 304 stainless steel wire at 26 gauge, each strand measures 0.018 inches in diameter with a width opening of 0.032 inches. The panel measures 12 inches by 12 inches and weighs 0.45 pounds. This material is typically cut to size and installed by mechanical contractors, HVAC technicians, or maintenance professionals requiring a corrosion-resistant mesh for air, liquid, or debris filtration tasks.

This wire cloth is suited for use in residential and commercial applications where a fine-mesh stainless screen is required. Common uses include inlet screens on HVAC equipment, custom filter frames, equipment guards, and plumbing strainer inserts. The 0.032-inch width opening provides controlled flow-through while blocking fine particulates. The 12 x 12 inch sheet size allows for trimming to fit standard and custom openings without significant material waste.

Installation Notes

Wire cloth should be cut using aviation snips or a metal shear rated for woven mesh material. Wear cut-resistant gloves during handling and trimming, as cut edges are sharp. Secure cut edges with a frame or edge binding to prevent wire fraying in the finished installation. Ensure all power or flow is isolated to the equipment being serviced before removing or replacing any screen or filter component.
