Value Collection K08008000551212 Wire Cloth 43 Gauge

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION K08008000551212 is a fine-mesh stainless steel wire cloth cut to a 12 x 12 inch sheet, suited for filtration, screening, and separation applications in industrial and trade environments. Woven from Type 304 stainless steel wire at 43 gauge with a wire diameter of 0.0055 inches, the mesh delivers a width opening of 0.0070 inches per aperture. This combination of fine wire and tight opening makes it appropriate for particulate filtration, liquid straining, and custom fabrication work. The sheet weighs approximately 0.171 pounds. HVAC technicians, plumbers, and industrial maintenance crews use this material for custom screen fabrication, inlet guards, and strainer inserts.

This wire cloth sheet is used across residential and commercial applications wherever a fine-mesh stainless screen is required. Typical uses include fabricating custom strainer screens for plumbing and HVAC systems, protective inlet covers, and industrial filtration assemblies. The 12 x 12 inch sheet size allows it to be cut to fit a range of custom applications. Type 304 stainless steel construction provides corrosion resistance suitable for wet environments, chemical exposure, and outdoor installations.

Installation Notes

This wire cloth is typically cut to size using metal shears or aviation snips before installation. Always wear cut-resistant gloves when handling or cutting wire mesh, as cut edges are sharp. Secure trimmed edges with appropriate framing or edge banding to prevent wire separation. Confirm the mesh opening size is appropriate for the intended filtration or screening application before installation.
