High Performance Titanium Wire Mesh
Updated : Aug. 12, 2025Titanium Wire Mesh is precisely woven from Gr1/Gr2 pure titanium or titanium alloy wire, offering excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature stability, and a superior strength-to-weight ratio. Compared to stainless steel or nickel meshes, titanium mesh provides longer service life and greater safety in harsh environments. It is widely used in seawater filtration, electrolytic electrodes, aerospace components, and chemical reactors where demanding performance is required.
Chalco supplies Titanium Wire Mesh in compliance with ASTM B348 and ASTM B863, with standard mesh sizes from 0.2 to 200 mesh and wire diameters from 0.05 mm to 1.2 mm. Products are available in rolls, sheets, or framed mesh assemblies upon request.Request Sample
Why Choose Titanium Wire Mesh?
Titanium Wire Mesh is highly favored in industries such as aerospace, medical filtration, electrochemistry, battery systems, and seawater desalination, thanks to its unmatched combination of performance and reliability:
-
Exceptional Corrosion Resistance
Titanium naturally forms a dense, stable oxide film in oxidizing environments, providing outstanding resistance to acids, alkalis, and chloride ions. It is ideal for seawater, chloride-rich, and electrolytic environments.
-
High Strength-to-Weight Ratio
With a higher specific strength than most metallic alloys, titanium significantly reduces structural weight while maintaining mechanical integrity—perfect for lightweight aerospace structures and chemical process equipment.
-
Excellent Biocompatibility
Commercially pure titanium is non-toxic and non-reactive to human tissues, making it suitable for medical-grade filters, implantable devices, and laboratory fluid systems requiring ultra-clean performance.
-
Good Electrical & Thermal Conductivity
In applications such as current collectors, electrodes, and battery protection layers, titanium mesh ensures efficient electrochemical transmission and thermal dissipation due to its stable conductive and thermal properties.
-
High-Temperature Stability
Capable of operating continuously below 400°C without structural degradation, Titanium Wire Mesh is ideal for hot gas filtration, combustion systems, and other high-temperature screening tasks.

Common Weave Types

Plain Weave
Most common pattern; warp and weft alternate over and under, creating an even aperture. Suitable for low-to-mid mesh counts.

Twill Weave
Each wire passes over two or more cross wires, forming a diagonal pattern with tighter weave and higher strength.

Five-Heddle Weave
Complex pattern with each wire intersecting four or more, forming a flat, dense weave for precision support applications.

Plain Dutch Weave
Thick warp wires and dense weft wires create fine apertures with high flow rate, ideal for precision filtration.

Twill Dutch Weave
Combines twill and Dutch patterns for superior strength and pressure resistance; suitable for ultra-fine and corrosive media.

Reverse Dutch Weave
Weft wires are thicker than warp wires, creating a tight structure with high permeability; used in high-speed filtration and backflush systems.
Supply Forms of Titanium Woven Wire Mesh
Chalco supplies Titanium Woven Wire Mesh in two primary forms:
Titanium Woven Wire Mesh - Roll
Mesh: 30 – 200 mesh
Wire Diameter: ≤ 0.4 mm
Standard Width: 1000 / 1200 / 1500 / 2000 mm
Features: Flexible and rollable; suitable for large-area installation


Titanium Woven Wire Mesh - Sheet
Mesh: 2 – 80 mesh
Wire Diameter: ≥ 0.4 mm
Standard Size: 500 × 500 mm, 1000 × 1000 mm

FAQs
What are the key advantages of titanium wire mesh compared to stainless steel mesh in real applications?
Titanium wire mesh offers superior corrosion resistance, strength-to-weight ratio, and biocompatibility. It significantly outperforms stainless steel in harsh environments such as seawater, chlorine, and acid/alkaline solutions. Titanium is also lightweight and non-magnetic, making it ideal for aerospace, medical, and other high-spec industries.
Is titanium mesh suitable for extreme environments like seawater or high temperatures?
Yes. Titanium naturally forms a stable passivation layer, allowing it to maintain integrity in oxidizing or mildly reducing media, even under prolonged exposure to salt spray, chlorides, acids, and alkalis. It is recommended for long-term use up to 400 °C, and short-term exposure up to 600 °C, ideal for heat exchangers, current collectors, and marine components.
What are the common weave types of titanium wire mesh? How do they differ in use?
Typical weaves include plain weave, twill weave, Dutch weave (plain/twill), five-heddle, and crimped:
- Plain weave: for general filtration
- Dutch weave: for high-precision filtration (e.g. pharmaceutical)
- Five-heddle: more flexible, suited for wrapping or high fatigue resistance
Each weave affects filtration accuracy, mechanical strength, and flexibility — selection should be based on specific operating conditions.
How to calculate the % open area of titanium mesh?
For plain weave, the approximate formula is:
%OA ≈ [A / (A + D)]² × 100%
Where A = aperture, D = wire diameter. For more complex weaves (twill, Dutch), due to varied strand arrangements, we recommend using Chalco’s online open area calculator or contacting our technical team for accurate guidance.
How does % open area affect mesh performance?
% Open Area directly influences flow rate and pressure drop:
- High %OA: better permeability, lower pressure loss — ideal for fluid filtration
- Low %OA: higher structural support and uniform current distribution — ideal for electrode substrates
Designers must balance strength vs. permeability based on application.
Can you supply electrode-grade titanium mesh with platinum/MMO coatings? What about coating adhesion?
Yes. Chalco supplies MMO coated titanium mesh — including platinum, ruthenium, or iridium-based mixed metal oxide (MMO) coatings — designed for electrolysis, water treatment, chlor-alkali production, and fuel cells. Our electrode-grade titanium mesh ensures long-term stability, uniform current distribution, and coating adhesion exceeding 8 N/cm. ASTM D3359 peel test reports are available on request.
Is titanium mesh easy to weld, form, or integrate with other components?
Commercially pure titanium wires are TIG or spot-weldable under inert gas shielding; heat input must be controlled to avoid grain coarsening. Titanium is more formable than stainless steel — it can be bent, edged, rolled, and paired with stainless steel frames or electrode holders with ease.
Which standards do you comply with? Can you provide ASTM F67 or AMS 4911 certification?
Yes. Our titanium mesh is made from material compliant with ASTM B348, ASTM B265, ASTM F67 (medical grade), and AMS 4911 (aerospace). We provide chemical analysis, mechanical reports, and third-party inspection if required. For pharmaceutical or aerospace use, we offer custom production with on-demand testing.
How do you ensure batch-to-batch consistency? Is full traceability supported?
Chalco enforces barcode & heat number tracking throughout the process. Each mesh batch includes tensile testing, spectral analysis, aperture verification, and roll-width inspection records. Full traceability from raw titanium to woven mesh is ensured. We also support SGS, BV, TUV third-party inspections.
