TWP Inc. carries PTFE coated wire mesh in a variety of sizes and weaves. When stainless steel mesh products have a PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) coating, it means the material is finished with a thin non-stick fluoropolymer layer. The finished product is hydrophobic, autoclavable, chemically inert, extremely durable, and will hold up under very high operating temperatures. PTFE coated mesh is also exceptionally resistant to chemicals, corrosion, and abrasion, and it has a low coefficient of friction.
Designed for flexibility, this material bends easily by hand and can be cut cleanly with scissors, allowing for quick customization in the field or lab. Commonly used in coalescing filters, the mesh allows air and fuel to pass through while repelling water, which beads on the PTFE-coated surface. This is ideal for moisture-sensitive systems.

Stainless Steel PTFE Wire Mesh
If you’re interested in the stainless steel PTFE wire mesh from TWP Inc. and would like to test or inspect the product, we can provide small (1 inch by 1 inch) samples. We offer coated mesh discs, squares, rectangles, and full rolls, as well as custom laser-cut pieces. Please keep in mind that minimum order quantities will apply for PTFE mesh. Also, while the green coating will be mostly uniform, we can’t guarantee it covers 100 percent of the mesh surface.
PTFE Coated Wire Mesh for Industrial Use
PTFE is a food-grade coating, but this type of wire mesh can be used in a wide variety of industries for several different applications including coalescing filtration. PTFE is a hydrophobic coating, meaning when water passes through PTFE wire mesh, it will bead onto the surface, allowing other substances to pass through. It is effective in separating water from various kinds of fuel and is often used in the manufacturing industry to filter liquids and gases.
PTFE coated mesh also has a wide range of industrial and scientific uses such as paper fabrication and petroleum purification. In addition to filtration and purification, this type of mesh is often used to separate and dry small particles. Because PTFE coated mesh allows for air to pass through while repelling moisture, it is sometimes used for water-resistant speakers, microphones, and other devices with similar requirements.
High-Quality PTFE Mesh Materials That Meets ASTM E2016-15 Standards
Our PTFE coated wire mesh is manufactured in full compliance with ASTM E2016-15, the standard specification for industrial woven wire cloth. This ensures our mesh meets stringent criteria for wire diameter, mesh count, tolerances, and surface quality, making it ideal for demanding applications like particle separation, filtration, and screening. By aligning with these recognized industry standards, we deliver reliable, consistent, and high-performance solutions tailored for critical industrial environments.
