Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh (ASTM E2016 / ISO 9044) is used for screening and filtering in marine, fuel and fatigue-loaded duties where tin-bronze cloth outlasts brass and stays non-magnetic.

Also known as: phosphor bronze wire mesh, bronze metal mesh, bronze wire cloth, bronze mesh

Made by: Woven Wire Mesh (Weaving)

Where Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh Is Used

  • Marine & offshore: sea-water strainers, bilge screens and sensor guards on vessels.
  • Fuel & oil systems: aviation and diesel fuel screens.
  • Electronics: EMI shielding gaskets and spring-contact mesh.
  • Papermaking: cylinder-mould and dandy-roll cloth.

How to Specify Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh

  • Alloy: CuSn6 (C51900) for marine strainers; CuSn8 for higher strength.
  • Weave: Twill weave from 100-mesh up carries the finer wire with more strength.
  • Size: Supplied in rolls, cut pieces, discs or formed baskets.

Materials

Standard supply is brass, 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

  • Back fine bronze cloth with a coarser support mesh when used against pressure.
  • Rinse sea-water strainers with fresh water during maintenance to slow fouling.

Common Mistakes

  • Choosing brass instead of phosphor bronze for sea water, where brass dezincifies.
  • Specifying bronze where 316L stainless would be cheaper and equally resistant.

When Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh Is Not the Right Choice

Not for strong acids or ammonia, and not the lowest-cost choice where stainless steel will do.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Phosphor Bronze Wire Mesh used for?

Screening and filtering in marine, fuel and fatigue-loaded duties where tin-bronze cloth outlasts brass and stays non-magnetic.

Phosphor bronze or brass mesh — what is the difference?

Phosphor bronze contains tin instead of zinc, so it resists sea water and fatigue much better than brass.

Is phosphor bronze mesh good for marine use?

Yes — it is one of the classic alloys for sea-water strainers and guards.

Can phosphor bronze mesh be used for EMI shielding?

Yes; it conducts well, is springy and is used for shielding gaskets.
