Mesh
Smartmesh
- Maintains consistent mesh openings that aids in preventing spot moire
- Warp and weft threads are balanced to stretch equally during the print process
- Smartmesh reaches stable tension levels quickly and retains tension for the life of the mesh
- Smartmesh has memory, it resists both the initial pull of the squeegee as well as forces during the print stroke to preserve registration from the first print to the last
- On finer meshes, the thread surface is treated to help ink transfer to substrate instead of hanging up in the mesh, yeilding a better reproduction of artwork

Stainless Steel Mesh
Precision Woven Low Elongation Screen Printing Products.
All of Asada's standard stainless steel wire mesh is woven with a special AD grade stainless steel, giving greater tensile strength, lower elongation and a higher yield point than conventional SUS 304 or 316. Strong mesh is good but thickness consistency is even more important. To control fabric thickness wires are individually inspected and selected for both the warp and weft. Using the most advanced weaving techniques, Asada supplies the uniform thickness and thread count you need to successfully print the demanding jobs of today and the future.

UX High Tension, Low Elongation Screen Fabrics
All fabric elongates when stretched and the mesh count drops in the process. Thus, a 380 mesh that elongates 6% is a better value than the one that elongates 15%. But that is only half the story. Right off the loom, woven fabric wants to elongate more in the longer direction of the bolt. It is up to the weaver to balance this elongation. NBC fabric is guaranteed to elongate equally (within 1% warp to weft).
