Wire Mesh

ward · Feb 16, 2006

Is there someone who knows a good source for brass wire mesh for microphones in Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, France ... ?

I tried to make it with stainless steel (inox) but soldering didn't work ? Anyone experience with that ?

Thanks

I use brass mesh ordered from Mcmaster-Carr but that's mostly good for US and Canada. If you use strong flux it seems to solder ok. I actually 'tin' the edges first using a soldering iron but I might try an electrochemical process next time. Once there's tin on the brass, it solders pretty easily. You need a lot of heat though.

I bought it from company in Slovenia but they sell only one square meter or more. Maybe send them email and ask for the price as they don't have it online.

For thin mesh I tried "Insect Mesh" on ebay...

I seem to recall a recent post about an European web/retailer - try forum search and/or look under mics section...?

Another option is disassembling air/oil filters for automotive engines.

I have for France.
I'll just have to check the name and contact and will get back to you.
iirc they've sent me samples just to get an idea of their Stock, still have those i think.
They are based in Paris.

Will let you know.

Best,

T.

PS: i have some stock if you're not looking for huge quantity.
