KnitMesh Technologies products

Mesh is usually specified by the number of stitches per cm. The range of meshes is considerable but for practical purposes these are from 0.5 stitches per cm to 6 stitches per cm.

Knitted mesh can also be produced in plastic and other fibres - the most commonly used being polypropylene, Hostaflon, Teflon®, glass wool and silica yarn. The figures given for the number of stitches per cm are only approximate, as many variables can significantly affect the stitch size.

This versatile type of mesh involves knitting multiple filaments of the same material or combining different materials (ie stainless steel and polypropylene).

KnitMesh supplies isolators to many of the world’s leading heatshield manufacturers who rely on our proprietary mesh-to-washer welding technology.  The resulting weld strength dramatically improves processing efficiency and significantly reduces scrap levels.

KnitMesh Technologies knitted mesh airbag filters have been specially developed to prevent incandescent particles from entering or damaging an airbag and to cool the expanding gas following actuation.

Our knitted mesh exhaust decoupling rings are used in decoupling joints and load support assemblies to absorb vibration, reduce noise and accommodate thermal expansion. In typical NVR applications mesh sleeves are used with flexible bellows to reduce both vibration and noise.

KnitMesh Technologies anti-vibration, sound attenuation & heat shields are highly effective absorbers of heat, noise and vibration energy. They are specifically designed for use in exhaust systems and are able to withstand very high shock loadings.

KnitMesh Technologies wire mesh catalytic converter seals & mesh wraps are used to protect the delicate honeycomb ceramic brick within a catalytic converter from shock and vibration damage.

KnitMesh Technologies mesh exhaust decoupling rings are used in decoupling joints and load support assemblies to absorb vibration, take-up thermal expansion and reduce noise. Mesh bellows sleeves reduce vibration and noise.

KnitMesh Technologies have developed production techniques to integrate graphite into their knitted wire mesh, this greatly increases the utility of these components for a wide range of applications.
