Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONIndustrial wire cloth can be produced in many thousands of combinations of size and shape ofopening, wire diameter, type of weave, and metal. This speci

3、fication covers woven wire cloth forindustrial use, including the separation of particles. Its purpose is to introduce standard terms anddefinitions, to note the normal range of specifications woven, and to establish tolerances andrequirements. This specification excludes sieve cloth from its scope,

4、 since this is covered underSpecification E11. If a user has a specific application for industrial wire cloth that is not within thescope of this specification, it is recommended that the wire cloth supplier be consulted.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers industrial woven wire fabric,referred to

5、as wire cloth, for general use including theseparation of particles. Wire cloth can be made of any primarymetal or metal alloy wire that is suitable for weaving. Thisspecification does not apply to the following special types ofwire cloth: filter cloth or dutch weave (see Appendix X1),fourdrinier an

6、d cylinder cloth, galvanized hardware cloth,insect wire screening, spiral weave wire cloth, testing sievecloth, or welded wire cloth.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units shall be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.3 This standard does not purport

7、to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

10、ed, plated, or in some other way finished prior toweaving, or wire cloth can be specified coated after weaving.Consult with a supplier as to the applicability of this specifi-cation. Examples of possible coatings include, but are notlimited to, metallic plated, such as, copper, nickel, tin, and sofo

11、rth, painted, or epoxy-coated or galvanized-steel wire cloththat has been coated with zinc either before or after weaving.3.1.4 Types of Crimps:3.1.4.1 crimp, nthe corrugation in the warp or shute wire,or both. The crimp in the wires is formed either during theweaving process, or with a crimping mac

12、hine prior to weaving.If formed during the weaving process, the tension existingbetween the warp and shute wires fundamentally determinesthe respective amount or depth of crimp, which locks the wiresin place and in part establishes the firmness of the wire cloth.3.1.4.2 double crimp, adjwire cloth w

Unless otherwise specified, rollsFIG. 10 Twilled Square WeaveE20160610of wire cloth may be delivered with or without selvage edges.The width tolerance of selvage edge cloth should be definedexplicitly.5.4.3 FlatnessWoven wire cloth may be curled in eitheror both the warp or shute d

46、irection, unless specifically agreedto otherwise.5.4.4 FirmnessA term referring to the planar rigidity ofwire cloth, established by the tensile strength of the material,the relationship of the mesh to wire diameters, the type ofweave, and the amount of crimp in the wires. The absence offirmness in w

Woven wirecloth should normally exhibit firmness.5.4.5 SquarenessThe warp and shute wires of woven wirecloth normally should be aligned such that they are perpen-dicular; however, ultralight or lighter grades may not alwaysexhibit squareness due to their sleazin

48、ess.5.4.6 Surface ConditionWoven wire cloth may be cov-ered with a film of oil or other lubricant as a result of themanufacturing process. The wire may show traces of productsused in the drawing process. Depending on the material, theremay be traces of surface rust and corrosion, which should notaff

The depth of crimp gener-ally differs between the warp and shute wires.5.4.7 Cut-to-Size PiecesThe tolerances that can be heldon cut pieces of wire cloth can be dependent on the piece size,the mesh and wire diameters, and the type of weave. Thesefactors should be considered in the discussion of toleranceswith the supplier.5.4.8 Slit WidthsSlitting tolerances should be discussedwith the supplier in accordance with 5.4.7, and it sh
