Polypropylene woven mesh – PP woven fabric

Polypropylene Plastic Mesh

Monofilament synthetic fibers can be woven precisely to create industrial textiles with narrow pore distribution. This precision weaving process begins with delicate mesh woven fabrics with apertures (hole sizes) as small as 50 microns.

The yarn type, size, and thread count determine the construction of plastic cloth. Monofilament yarns are a single continuous filament that produces a relatively smooth surface. In plain weave constructions, the straight-through pores of monofilament fabrics offer minimal flow restriction and surface loading of particles.

These versatile precision woven fabrics meet stringent technical requirements in automotive, biomedical, chemical processing, and water treatment applications. Typical applications include insert-molded filters for air and fuel filter cartridges, fuel injector nozzles, and liquid filter bags. As you can see, woven mesh is commonly used for filtration applications.

A fabric’s thread count refers to the number of threads per inch. Warp threads run lengthwise in a cloth weft, or filling lines run across the width of fabric at right angles to the warp. Since monofilament fabrics are produced with equal yarn diameters and equal thread counts in both the warp and weft directions, the mesh opening is square.

Choose from a wide range of plastic mesh sizes made from nylon, polyester, or polypropylene.

Note: Woven plastic mesh is typically shipped in roll form wound on cores to prevent creases. Occasional flaws that can affect the continuous roll length are inherent in the weaving process. Excessive handling can increase static that entraps random particles. The yarns used in manufacturing these products are not officially FDA-approved, but they are virgin raw materials suitable for food contact
