Copper-Clad Steel Reverse Dutch Weave Mesh for Polymer Melt Filtration

Manufactured using high-strength steel wire clad with a copper layer, this mesh combines the structural strength of steel with the corrosion resistance and thermal conductivity of copper.
The reverse Dutch weave pattern—where finer warp wires are densely packed and thicker weft wires provide structural support—creates a filter surface with:
High flow rates (better than standard Dutch weave)
Excellent particle retention for melt filtration
Superior anti-clogging performance for continuous operation
Enhanced mechanical strength to withstand high extrusion pressures
At Jinzehong, we supply industrial-grade copper-clad steel reverse Dutch weave mesh in custom widths, lengths, and micron ratings. This product is specifically designed for use with automatic screen changers and extrusion equipment in the plastics, rubber, and polymer processing industries.
Key applications: Polymer melt filtration, plastic extrusion (blown film, sheet, pipe, profile), rubber processing, recycling filtration, and automatic screen changer systems.

Why Choose Copper-Clad Steel Reverse Dutch Weave Mesh?

This specialized filter mesh offers distinct advantages over standard stainless steel or plain Dutch weave options:


Advantages

Explanation

High Tensile Strength

Warp wire tensile strength up to 2,500 N/mm²—significantly stronger than standard stainless steel mesh—helps prevent breakage under high extrusion pressure.

Corrosion Resistance

Copper cladding provides excellent resistance to corrosion and oxidation, even in high-temperature polymer melt environments.

Reverse Dutch Weave Design

Delivers higher flow rates than standard Dutch weave while maintaining excellent particle retention—ideal for continuous, high-volume filtration.

Heat Resistance

Withstands the high temperatures encountered in plastic and rubber extrusion processes without losing structural integrity.

Anti-Clogging Performance

The reverse Dutch weave pattern resists blinding and plugging, reducing cleaning downtime and helping extend filter life.

Precise Filtration

Uniform mesh openings ensure consistent particle retention, improving product quality (e.g., film clarity and fiber consistency).

Long Service Life

Durable construction resists abrasion and repeated thermal cycling, reducing replacement frequency and operating costs.

Compatibility

Designed for use with all automatic screen changer systems—compatible with both imported (Austrian, German, Japanese) and domestic Chinese extrusion equipment.

Reverse Dutch Weave: The Optimal Pattern for Melt Filtration

Reverse Dutch weave is a specialized weave pattern that reverses the configuration of standard Dutch weave:

Weave Type

Warp (Meridian/Vertical)

Weft (Latitude/Horizontal)

Characteristics

Standard Dutch Weave

Thicker

Thinner

Dense surface; maximum particle retention

Reverse Dutch Weave

Finer, denser

Thicker, stronger

Higher flow rates; better anti-clogging

Key features of reverse Dutch weave for melt filtration:

Feature

Explanation

Dense Warp Packing

Finer warp wires are packed closely together, forming a dense filter surface that captures fine particles.

Strong Weft Support

Thicker weft wires provide structural reinforcement, preventing belt deformation under high extrusion pressure.

Triangular Openings

The warp–weft interaction creates triangular-shaped transverse openings that promote flow and resist clogging.

Anti-Slip & Anti-Shifting

The tightly woven structure helps prevent belt misalignment and wire shifting during continuous operation.

Verdict: This combination of materials and weave makes copper-clad steel reverse Dutch weave mesh an industry-standard solution for polymer melt filtration, rubber processing, and automatic screen changer applications.

Copper-Clad Steel vs. Stainless Steel Reverse Dutch Weave

Feature

Copper-Clad Steel Reverse Dutch Weave

Stainless Steel Reverse Dutch Weave

Tensile Strength

Standard (approx. 600 – 800 N/mm²)

Corrosion Resistance

Good (copper cladding protects the steel core)

Excellent (especially 316 grade)

Conductivity

Excellent (copper is highly conductive)

Low

Heat Resistance

High (copper maintains integrity at melt temperatures)

Very high

Cost

Moderate (copper cladding adds value)

Lower to moderate (depends on grade)

Frequently Asked Questions



What is copper-clad steel reverse Dutch weave mesh?

It is a specialized filter mesh made from high-strength steel wire clad with copper and woven in a reverse Dutch weave pattern. It combines high tensile strength (up to 2,500 N/mm²) with corrosion resistance, making it ideal for polymer melt filtration.

What is the difference between copper-clad steel and stainless steel filter mesh?

Copper-clad steel offers significantly higher tensile strength (2,500 N/mm² vs. ~600 N/mm² for stainless steel), making it better suited for high-pressure melt filtration. Stainless steel provides superior corrosion resistance; however, copper-clad steel is an industry-standard choice for screen changer applications.

What is reverse Dutch weave and why is it used for melt filtration?

Reverse Dutch weave uses finer warp wires packed closely together and thicker weft wires for support. This creates a filter surface with high particle retention and higher flow rates than standard Dutch weave—ideal for continuous, high-volume melt filtration.

What is the typical tensile strength of the warp wire?

Up to 2,500 N/mm²—significantly higher than standard stainless steel.

What widths are available?

Standard range: 40 mm to 210 mm. Common widths include 100 mm, 120 mm, 150 mm, 180 mm, 230 mm, and 308 mm. Custom widths are available on request.

What lengths are available?

Standard lengths are 10 m, 50 m, or 80 m. Custom lengths from 20 m to 100 m are available.
