FAQs For This Product

Can I Use This For EMI Screening?

Yes, copper with 60 holes per linear inch can be used for EMI (electromagnetic interference) screening purposes. Material density is determined by the number of holes per linear inch, also known as mesh count or mesh size.

Copper is an excellent conductor of electricity and has good electromagnetic shielding properties.

A mesh count of 60 holes per linear inch indicates a relatively fine woven pattern, offering higher density and smaller openings compared to lower mesh counts. This fine mesh size helps to prevent the passage of electromagnetic waves at certain frequencies while allowing airflow and visibility.

Copper mesh sheets can be used in various applications, including electronic enclosures, computer cabinets, equipment racks, shielding for sensitive electronic components, and communication devices. By preventing external interference and minimizing unwanted electromagnetic emissions, it helps contain electromagnetic radiation within the enclosure.

It is important to ensure proper installation and grounding when using copper mesh sheets for EMI screening. To conduct electromagnetic currents, the sheets must be securely attached to the desired surfaces and connected to a suitable grounding system.

It is worth noting that the specific application and the desired level of EMI shielding effectiveness may require different mesh sizes or additional measures such as gaskets, conductive coatings, or specialized shielding materials. You can determine the most appropriate solution for your specific requirements by consulting with an EMI shielding specialist or engineer.

How Would I Cut This Mesh?

Easily. We would use standard kitchen scissors or even fingertips alone.

Can Fine Copper Mesh Be Welded?

Fine copper woven wire mesh can be welded, but it requires careful consideration and specialized techniques due to the properties of copper.

Copper has a high thermal conductivity, which means it conducts heat very effectively. This characteristic can make welding copper challenging because it dissipates heat quickly, making it more difficult to achieve a strong and consistent weld.

When welding fine copper woven wire mesh, it is essential to use a welding method suitable for copper and take certain precautions:

1. TIG Welding (Tungsten Inert Gas Welding): Due to its precision control of heat input, TIG welding is often preferred for welding copper. To protect the welding area from oxidation, it uses a non-consumable tungsten electrode and an inert gas shield. Copper welding filler wire and a specialized welding machine are required when TIG welding copper.
2. Proper Preparation: Make sure that the copper woven wire mesh is clean and free from contaminants such as oil, dirt, or oxidation before welding. Preparing the mesh surface requires a suitable cleaning method, such as wire brushing or solvent cleaning.
3. Welding Parameters: Set the welding parameters, including current, voltage, and travel speed, according to the specific requirements of the copper mesh and the welding equipment being used. It may be necessary to adjust the parameters to balance heat input and prevent excessive heat dissipation.
4. Heat Control: Controlling the heat input is crucial to a successful weld. Welds that are heated too much can be distorted, burned through, or weakened. In order to manage the heat effectively, you can pulse the current or use shorter welding cycles.
5. Backing or Fixturing: It may be necessary to use a backing material or fixturing to support the copper mesh during welding, depending on the application. To ensure consistent welding, this prevents warping or distortion.
6. Practice and Experience: It takes skill and experience to weld copper. To ensure satisfactory results, practice on scrap pieces or seek guidance from experienced welders.
