SPW – Single Plain Dutch Weave

The weft wires are woven in a plain weave without a space between the weft wires (aperture width is 0). There are approximately five times more weft wires with respect to the number of warp wires.

Hence, the strength is higher in the weft direction. The SPW filter weave is used for surface filtration and is characterized by its ease of cleaning and back flushing.

SPW filter mesh cloth mesh counts range between 40 μm and 300 μm.

To reduce pore size, single and double warp wires are used. Because of its robustness and good flow properties, it is suitable for almost every application – whether as a filter for separating solids from a viscous phase, for minimizing sound, or for other applications that require ease of use.

Pore size range = 30 μm to 302 μm

What Is Filter Mesh?

Your Mesh, Your Way

Value-Added Processes

Woven wire mesh is remarkably versatile off the loom, but sometimes it must be enhanced to deliver optimal performance. Our highly calculated and monitored value-added processes were designed to grant you complete control over the performance of your wire mesh.

Weave Type and Specifications

Dependable filtration and screening requires you to scientifically balance precision and flowrate. Get to know the different specifications and weave types you can use to fine-tune the performance of your wire mesh.

Alloys

Creating wire mesh solutions that deliver optimal durability, starts with the alloy of the wires. Explore our extensive wire mesh alloy selection and learn what it takes to fabricate solutions that perform under the harshest conditions.

Industries We Serve

Discover how woven wire rolls and cut-to-size pieces enable you to craft best-in-class solutions in-house while maintaining a reliable wire mesh inventory.

Essential Product Information For You

Verified Accuracy

Sometimes, you may feel unsure about the accuracy of your woven wire. For peace of mind, you can apply either a glass bead or bubble point test to your mesh for insight into how it should be performing.


Enhance Your Woven Wire Experience With Special Techniques

Sometimes, woven wire needs further fabrication beyond detail-oriented weaving. There are specialized value-added process techniques designed to do just that at your disposal.


Designing Woven Wire Around Your Process Made Easy

Designing woven wire mesh can be daunting, as several factors must be considered. Allow W.S. Tyler to be your woven wire partner, helping you develop a solution based on a thorough analysis of the particles you work with.
