Description:
Knitted Mesh
At Loos & Company, our goal is to be the first one you turn to when you need knitted mesh,
stainless steel wire, aircraft cable,
wire rope, or
cable assemblies. We strive to be the best at providing you with the information, delivery schedules
and pricing you need. Our focus is clear. Deliver what matters most to you, order after order.
Our new
product line includes the following:
Knitted Wire Mesh- Loos Co. is the world's largest integrated Wire, Wire Rope,
and Knitted Mesh producer that is certified to ISO 9001:2000
and AS9100 -Rev B. We have been recognized as an innovative leader when it comes to
design and fabrication of
wire products.
Because of this we are able to offer: o Responsive customer
service o Knowledgeable sales staff backed by engineering support o Short lead times o Custom
design for
unique situations o Rapid response to quotes
Wire Drawing
and Knitting- After
wire drawing, which is a multiple step process that "draws"
wire rod into finished diameter's from .0020" to .0200", it is Knitted into a tubular shape. Knitted Mesh produces interlocking loops of
wire in a concentric sleeve. Capabilities include
mesh from 1" through 16" wide using annealed
and hard drawn
wire. These loops can move relative to each other in the same plane without distorting the mesh, giving knitted
mesh a two-way flexibility.
Recovery Cable: This is a highly specialized
product which can be made from 3/16" to 1 " diameter
and even larger if required. Used primarily as a component in high temperature or cryogenic seals
and gaskets. They can be made from 300 series Stainless Steel, Inconel 600 or any material that we manufacture. They are made
and designed to operate in environments where less noble materials will fail. Loos will make these
products to customer's exacting
design specifications. Additionally, since knitted
mesh has specific compression characteristics, essentially acting as a spring, it provides resistance to mechanical wear. Recovery
cable can be made in light, medium, regular
and heavy densities.
EMI/RFI Shielding: -This Mesh is commonly used in
electronic enclosures where low closure force is required with low compressibility set. The
mesh consists of many interlocking loops that act as thousands of small springs which provide for a resilient all-metal conductive
gasket. When an elastomer is the core for the
wire mesh, it provides excellent compressibility with a high degree of resilience while, at the same time, functioning as an environmental seal. We at Loos provide the basic
mesh for this
product and do not supply finished
products. We simply fill in your production, or tooling gaps.
Materials -We have in
stock and manufacture finished
wire from the following raw materials: Type 302, 304, 305, 309, 310, 316, 316L, 317
and 321; Type 430. As well as Monel 400, Inconel 600, 601,
and 625. Nickel 200, 201
and 205. Alloy 20 [20Cb3],
and Hastelloy C-276. Aluminum 5056,
and 5154. SnCuFe in diameter's from .0035" - .0050".
