Review on Premium Quality 304 Stainless Steel Mesh Roll - 80 Mesh, 0.18Mm Hole, 11.8 X 39.4 Inch - Ideal For Filtration And Screening by Jonathan Partridge

Stainless steel thimble

I had to make a stainless steel thimble for my Soxhlet extractor. I used a pvc pipe with waxed paper taped to the tube. I wrapped the stainless steel screen around the pipe, applied food grade silicon between the overlap, and secured it with flexible beading wire. I have the glass thimble but the botanicals are much easier extracted through this screen. If you have trim trays, this wire is about the same grade as a trim tray and is extremely strong.

Pros
  • Super fine mesh. Use it to cover ventilation holes in my isopod containers.
Cons
  • The material can be easily damaged if exposed to harsh chemicals or rough handling

Re-writing this review for outdoor fire place-said was good- but no, it did not last. Maybe a few months, then rusted and disintegrated. Not for fire screen
