Brass mesh is a fairly stiff material but may be bent by hand and has some springback after being bent or formed.  It is a yellowish gold color when first woven and will gradually discolor.

Brass metal mesh has much better abrasion resistance, better corrosion resistance and lower electrical conductivity
 

Materials: 
Brass wire, copper wire and phosphor bronze wire.
 

Appliations:
Brass wire mesh (cloth) and phosphor bronze wire mesh (wire cloth) are frequently used as sieving and filtering materials in screening pellet, powder, porcelain clay and glass, chinaware printing, filtering liquid and gas.

 Brass wire mesh and wire cloth possess greater strength than copper wire mesh or bronze wire mesh.
 Copper wire cloth finds wide usage in traveling water screens, radio frequency interference shielding, sugar and marine applications.

Brass Wire Mesh - Cutting

Brass meshes are easily cut with hand tools. The heavy meshes from 2 mesh through 10 mesh is best cut with tin snips. To cut 16 mesh and finer, you can use a common scissor
