Quality is often mirrored in the composition; nickel content is a fundamental element in ascertaining the caliber of your mesh. The choice of material, along with factors such as mesh count, weight, and others, directly affects pricing. Various grades of stainless steel display divergent nickel contents, for instance, the economical 201 grade stainless steel wire mesh within the 200 series showcases a significant manganese presence and a meager nickel content, rendering it more prone to corrosion.
Industrial demand for nickel—owing to its high costs and significant application—results in the noticeable price variance between stainless steel wire mesh varieties. Zero-nickel and low-nickel meshes, while budget-friendly, unfortunately, betray an increased susceptibility to rust. Conversely, meshes crafted from 304 stainless steel, containing 8%-10% nickel, boast robustness, succumbing to rust exclusively in potent acidic environs.
Testing quality can also employ straightforward chemical means; the copper sulfate test is a notable method. Administer a droplet of water onto the mesh surface followed by a touch of copper sulfate; a lack of discoloration signifies genuine stainless steel. If it morphs to a purple tint and exhibits non-magnetic properties, it's often indicative of high manganese steel. The use of a magnet can further nuance your evaluation; while chromium stainless steel is invariably magnetic, chrome-nickel variants in their annealed state aren't—though they could become magnetic post cold working.
