Wire mesh gasket Metex

Metex knitted wire mesh gaskets and seals provide resiliency, strength in compression, and a nearly unlimited choice of materials, constructions, or shapes for specific applications. Most important, they provide superior performance in hostile environments where other materials would fail as a result of decomposition or deformation.

Knitted mesh seals have no seams or ribs-normally the weak areas of any seal-so that when used in gasketing and sealing applications, they provide high-strength uniformity throughout the sealing area. Unlike woven or braided materials, knitted mesh consists of a continuous series of interlocking loops knitted in a tubular form, allowing two-dimensional movement in the plane of the mesh. This results in unusual flexibility and resiliency, even under heavy compression loads and exposure to extreme temperatures.
