Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, established in 1998, is a professional manufacturer specializing in wire mesh solutions. Our Stainless Steel Mesh for Drying in Food Processing (Grade 304, 40 Mesh, 0.3mm wire) is engineered to meet the rigorous demands of food drying applications. With a proven track record of supplying global markets across North America, Europe, and Asia, we deliver consistent quality and reliability. This mesh combines excellent corrosion resistance with precise opening sizes, ensuring efficient moisture removal while maintaining product integrity.
This product is designed for use in food drying ovens, airflow systems, and conveyor belts where hygiene and durability are critical. The 304 stainless steel construction resists rust and food acids, making it safe for direct contact with fruits, vegetables, grains, and other edibles. The 40-mesh specification (0.425mm opening) provides an optimal balance between airflow and particle retention, preventing smaller food pieces from falling through while allowing hot air to circulate freely.
Our manufacturing process ensures consistent weave density and uniform wire tension, resulting in a flat, stable mesh surface that resists sagging even under continuous high-temperature exposure. Each roll is inspected for dimensional accuracy, and we offer customization options such as cut-to-size sheets, edge reinforcements, or special surface treatments upon request.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material: 304 Stainless Steel (ASTM A240 compliant) – excellent corrosion resistance, suitable for food contact.
- Mesh Count: 40 Mesh (40 openings per linear inch) – precise screening for drying applications.
- Wire Diameter: 0.3mm – provides adequate strength without blocking airflow.
- Opening Size: 0.425mm (approx.) – allows efficient moisture escape while retaining small particles.
- Weave Type: Plain Weave – simple, durable structure with uniform openings.

Benefits for Your Food Processing Operation
- Enhanced drying efficiency: The 40-mesh opening allows hot air to penetrate evenly, reducing drying time by up to 30% compared to finer meshes.
- Reduced product loss: Small food pieces (e.g., diced vegetables, herbs) are retained on the mesh, minimizing waste.
- Hygienic and easy to clean: 304 stainless steel is non-porous and resists bacterial growth; the smooth surface allows quick rinsing or steam cleaning.
- Long service life: With proper care, this mesh can last for years even in continuous use, lowering replacement costs.
- Customizable dimensions: We can cut sheets or rolls to your exact machine specifications, reducing installation time.
Our mesh is compatible with various drying systems: tunnel dryers, fluidized bed dryers, belt dryers, and tray dryers. It can also be used as a support layer for other filter media or as a conveying surface for delicate products.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Is this mesh food-grade and safe for direct contact with food?
A: Yes, the 304 stainless steel is a common food-grade material. It complies with international food contact standards (e.g., FDA, EU regulations). However, we recommend verifying local requirements for your specific application. -
Q: What is the maximum temperature this mesh can withstand?
A: The mesh can be used continuously at temperatures up to 250°C (482°F). For higher-temperature applications, we can suggest alternative materials. -
Q: Can I get the mesh cut to a specific size for my drying tray?
A: Absolutely. We offer custom cutting services. You can order sheets cut to your exact dimensions, with or without edge reinforcement. -
Q: How do I clean the mesh after use?
A: The mesh can be rinsed with water, brushed gently, or cleaned with a mild detergent. For stubborn residues, steam cleaning or soaking in a food-safe detergent solution is effective. Avoid abrasive cleaners that may damage the surface. -
Q: What is the typical lead time for an order?
A: For standard sizes (1.2m width, 20m rolls), lead time is 5–7 working days after confirmation. Custom sizes or special finishes may require 10–15 working days. -
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, we offer free samples (A4 size) for freight collect. Contact our sales team to arrange sample delivery. -
Q: Can the mesh be used for both drying and sieving?
A: While primarily designed for drying, the 40-mesh opening also makes it suitable for light sieving of granular materials (e.g., flour, sugar, spices) as long as the particle size is larger than 0.425mm. -
Q: What packaging options are available for export?
A: We pack rolls in plastic film, then in woven bags or wooden crates to protect against moisture and physical damage. Custom packaging (e.g., palletized, with edge protectors) is available upon request.
