How to Specify Photo-Etched Mesh Sheet

Hole and pitch: Holes from 0.05 mm, roughly equal to or larger than the foil thickness.
Foil: 0.05–0.3 mm SS304/316L, nickel, copper or titanium.
Sheet size & margins: Up to about 500 × 600 mm with solid borders for handling.

Materials

Standard supply is stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316/316L, copper; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.

Fitting & Care

Store sheets flat and interleaved with paper to protect the surface.
Cut with a sharp guillotine or laser to keep the hole field undamaged.

Common Mistakes

Requesting holes smaller than the foil thickness.
Expecting woven-mesh open area from very fine etched holes.

When Photo-Etched Mesh Sheet Is Not the Right Choice

Not economical for large volumes of coarse perforations, where punching is cheaper.
