Product Overview
This Type 316 stainless steel gauze is meticulously woven from 0.05mm (0.002in) diameter wire, offering a precise 200 mesh configuration for reliable filtration and sieving in laboratory settings. Type 316 stainless steel is renowned for its superior corrosion resistance, making it ideal for applications involving harsh chemicals, high temperatures, or prolonged exposure to moisture. The uniform mesh structure ensures consistent particle retention, while the durable construction guarantees long-term performance without deformation. Available in multiple sizes—30x60cm, 20x30cm, and 10x10cm—this gauze is versatile for various experimental setups, from small-scale tests to larger filtration tasks. Its smooth, non-reactive surface minimizes contamination risks, ensuring purity in sensitive processes. Whether used for separating solids, supporting catalysts, or as a protective barrier, this gauze delivers precision and reliability, making it a staple in research and industrial laboratories.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between Type 316 and Type 304 stainless steel gauze?
Type 316 contains molybdenum, which enhances its corrosion resistance, especially against chlorides and acids, compared to Type 304. This makes Type 316 more suitable for harsh or chemical-heavy environments.
2. Can this gauze be reused after cleaning?
Yes, Type 316 stainless steel gauze is highly durable and can be cleaned with appropriate solvents or ultrasonic cleaning methods for reuse, provided it remains free from physical damage.
3. Is this gauze compatible with high-temperature applications?
Type 316 stainless steel can withstand temperatures up to 870°C (1600°F) intermittently, making it suitable for many high-temperature lab processes, though prolonged exposure may affect its properties.
4. How should I store this gauze to prevent contamination?
Store the gauze in a dry, sealed container or plastic bag to avoid dust accumulation or exposure to corrosive vapors. Keep it away from direct sunlight or humid environments.
5. What alternatives are available if I need a finer or coarser mesh?
For finer filtration, consider 300 or 400 mesh gauzes, while coarser options like 100 or 150 mesh are available for larger particle separation. Ensure the material grade matches your application needs.
