RECTANGULAR OR “OFF-COUNT” WEAVE

A Plain Weave wire cloth, woven in an over and under pattern with a different number of wires in the warp and shute direction, which yields a rectangular opening wire cloth. Rectangular openings are often used in sifting and sizing operations to increase product “through” capacity with minor sacrifices in accuracy. To reduce material costs, off-count mesh may be substituted for square mesh in some applications that do not require a high level of accuracy.
