Twill Weave

This type of wirecloth is stronger than Plain Weave.

Each weft wire alternatively crosses over two, then under two warp wires producing a diagonal pattern.

The wire diameter for warp and weft are normally the same.

 

 

Twill weave is usually used to accommodate a heavier than standard wire diameter in association with a given mesh. Specifications finer than 250 mesh are normally twill woven.
