Materials
Standard supply is stainless steel 304; 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
Tap the rim against your palm, not the sink edge, to clear the mesh without denting it.
Back-rinse right after starchy foods; dried starch glues the weave shut.
Common Mistakes
Pressing hard with a metal spoon, which stretches the weave and tears it from the rim.
Choosing 30-mesh for quinoa, which slips straight through.
When Fine Mesh Kitchen Sieve & Strainer Is Not the Right Choice
Not a colander for large pasta batches or heavy potatoes; the fine weave dents under weight.
Fine Mesh Kitchen Sieve & Strainer is made to order as finished parts. Indicative pricing starts from about US$0.95 per piece for a standard size at production quantity; the final price depends on size, material, finish, tooling and order volume.
