Stainless Steel Drying Mesh, 304 Grade, 80 Mesh, 0.18mm Wire, 1.5m Width, 50m Length
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory is proud to present our 304 Stainless Steel Drying Mesh — a premium solution for industrial drying, filtration, and separation processes. With an annual export value of US$5-10 million and shipments through major ports like Tianjin, Qingdao, and Shanghai, our mesh is trusted by global buyers across North America, Europe, Southeast Asia, and beyond. This 80-mesh, 0.18mm wire diameter roll (1.5m wide, 50m long) offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance for demanding applications.
Our drying mesh is engineered to deliver optimal airflow while retaining fine particles, making it ideal for use in food dehydrators, chemical drying beds, paper pulp screens, and textile drying chambers. The 304 grade stainless steel ensures long service life even in humid or acidic environments, reducing replacement costs and downtime. Below we detail the key specifications and advantages that set our product apart.

| Length | 50m per roll | Long continuous length minimizes splicing and waste |
| Weave Type | Plain woven | Stable structure, uniform openings, easy to clean |
Detailed Advantages for Your Business
- Enhanced Drying Efficiency: The 80-mesh opening (approx. 180μm) combined with 0.18mm wire provides approximately 50% open area, allowing hot air to pass freely while trapping fine materials. This reduces drying time by up to 20% compared to finer meshes.
- Long-Term Durability: 304 stainless steel resists rust, oxidation, and most chemicals. In continuous drying operations at temperatures up to 800°C (intermittent) or 400°C (continuous), the mesh maintains its mechanical integrity without warping or embrittlement.
- Easy Maintenance: The plain weave structure is non-stick and easy to clean. For food processing lines, the mesh can be steam-cleaned or washed with mild detergents without affecting performance.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for drying fruits, vegetables, herbs, grains, chemicals, powders, and even wet paper pulp. Also used as conveyor belts in drying ovens, vibrating screens, or standing drying racks.
- Customizable Options: While this standard roll is 1.5m x 50m, we can produce custom widths, lengths, and even different mesh counts (e.g., 40 mesh, 100 mesh) upon request. Edge finishing (selvedge, tape, or welded) is available.
Why Choose Anping Boli?
With over 25 years of manufacturing experience (since 1998), our factory in Hengshui, Hebei, China, has developed rigorous quality control processes. Every batch of stainless steel wire is tested for tensile strength and chemical composition before weaving.

We ship from multiple ports (Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, Foshan) to ensure fast logistics. We offer competitive pricing without compromising on material quality — each roll is tightly wound, protected with waterproof wrapping, and labeled clearly for easy identification.
We understand that drying mesh is a critical component in your production line. That's why we provide technical support to help you select the right mesh for your specific temperature, humidity, and particle size requirements. Our team can also assist with installation advice and after-sales service. Contact us today to discuss your needs or request a sample roll.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Can this mesh be used for food drying?
Yes, 304 stainless steel is food-grade and safe for direct contact with food items. The 80 mesh is ideal for drying sliced fruits, herbs, and spices.
Q2: What is the maximum temperature this mesh can withstand?
Continuous use up to 400°C (752°F) and intermittent use up to 800°C (1472°F). However, for long-term stability, we recommend staying below 400°C.
Q3: How do I cut the mesh to my desired size?
You can use heavy-duty scissors or tin snips. For precise edges, a rotary cutter or laser cutting is recommended. We can also pre-cut to custom sizes upon request.
Q4: Is the mesh resistant to acids or chemicals?
304 stainless steel offers good resistance to many organic acids, mild acids, and bases. For highly corrosive environments (e.g., chlorine, strong acids), consider 316 grade — we can supply that as a custom option.
Q5: Does the mesh have any edge finishing?
Standard rolls have raw edges. We offer selvedge edges (woven edge) or tape/band edge finishing at an additional cost. Please specify your requirement.
Q6: What is the open area percentage of 80 mesh 0.18mm wire?
Approximately 50-52% open area, calculated as (mesh opening)/(mesh opening + wire diameter). This provides good airflow and particle retention.
Q7: How is the roll packaged for export?
Each roll is wrapped in kraft paper, then plastic film, and finally placed in a wooden crate or palletized for sea freight. We ensure the mesh is protected from moisture and damage during transit.
Q8: Do you offer samples?
Yes, we can provide a small sample (e.g., 30cm x 30cm) for testing. The sample is free of charge, but the customer pays for shipping. Contact us for details.
