However, there are so many uses for wire mesh, including wire mesh filter screens separating or filtering gas, liquids, and solids. In fact, these days, we can make stainless steel wire mesh filters so small that it can actually separate liquids and gasses.
At Lawrence Sintered Metals, we offer a stainless steel filter mesh that can even filter things as tiny as two microns. How small is that? A micron, also known as a micrometer, is one thousandth of a millimeter and one millionth of a meter. Just to give you a sense of proportion, a human hair is around 40 microns wide. A micron isn’t even something you can see with the naked eye. Yet, our stainless steel mesh can catch things that small.
