Plain weave: Each weft wire passes over one and under one warp wire, and each warp wire passes
over one and under one weft wire, every weft wire have and warp wire the same diameter.
Characteristics: square aperture, high flow through, relative high open area, as result less pressure
drop during filtration suitable for all kinds of filtration up to 63 µm.

The Plain Weave is the most commonly used and simplest wire cloth
weave. Each warp wire (wire running-parallel to length of cloth)
passes alternately over and under the wires running traverse through
the cloth (fill or shoot wires) at 90 degree angles. It has an extremely
wide range of applications
