Plain Weave...

Plain woven is the most commonwire cloth weave. A weft wire passes alternately over and under each warp wire, and each warp wire passes alternately over and under each weft wire. Both warp and weft wire diameters are generally the same.

 

Twilled Weave...

Each weft wire alternately passes over two, then under two successive warp wires, and each warp wire passes alternately over two and under two successive weft wires, in a staggered arrangement. Twill weave is normally used to allow a heavier-than-normal wire diameter in association with a given mesh.

Plain Dutch Weave...

Plain Dutch wire cloth weave has similar interlacing to plain weave, except the warp wires are larger diameter than the shute wires. While the warp wires remain straight, the weft wires are plain woven to lie as close as possible against each other in a linen weave forming a dense strong material with small, irregular and twisting passageways that appear triangular when diagonally viewing the weave.

Twilled Dutch Weave...

The Twilled Dutch weave is similar to Plain Dutch weave, except that the weave is twilled, allowing a double layer of weft wires. There are no "straight-shot" apertures through the mesh, and the filtrate follows a sinuous path to pass through the wire cloth.
