Evaluate our C276 wire mesh and C22 wire mesh designed for highly corrosive environments. Review alloy specifications and buy hastelloy wire mesh today.
Hastelloy wire mesh is used for precision filtration, screening, separation, and structural support in highly corrosive, high-temperature, chloride-rich extreme environments. It provides improved performance compared with conventional stainless steel and 316L.
Hastelloy mesh is also known as Hastelloy wire mesh or a Hastelloy mesh screen. It is made by weaving Hastelloy wire. Hastelloy mesh is available in several grades, including Hastelloy B, Hastelloy C, Hastelloy C276, Hastelloy C22, and others. The most commonly used grade is Hastelloy C276 mesh. Hastelloy mesh provides excellent corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures and outstanding protection in abrasive operating conditions. It offers superior durability, good strength, and high resistance to pressure and stress.
