I bought these to make new screen filters for my PC case, since I'm not SUPER happy with the ones on it now. So the mesh on this is more than fine enough for that purpose.
Pros:
-Right size for my needs, even have some left over, neat. Which I will be utilizing for other projects.
-The hole size is nice and fine.
-Does to be appropriately stainless steel, since it is not very magnetic. Now, 304? I don't know for sure, but I can do the simple "magnet" test and I am a magnet snob, I know weird niche to fill. So, I have a ton of rare earth magnets in my house of varying and scary strengths. I used one for my guns on it with a 45lb pull rating and mesh was very easy to pull off of it, was barely attracted to that magnet. Leading me to believe the stainless steel rating is legit.
-Well squared off. When making a filter for a rectangular box PC case, you want to ensure your product is well squared off. THIS was.
-Seemingly accurate size. AND YES, I have bought sheets like this where they've been off by enough to feel jipped by it. While I didn't need all of the length, I needed most of it for the top of the case. It's a giant PC case for a silly and overpowered PC build. Hence wanting to keep the inside as dust-free as possible.
-Fine mesh, very fine. Nice small holes also woven well. As anyone can tell you, when you start cutting into woven mesh if it's not done right, you'll get annoying fraying. But I didn't get any of that with the scissors I used.
-Very little memory curl. This is also a minor complaint I bring up in the "CON" section. What I mean is that when completely unraveled, it for the most part lays flat. WELL DONE. Probably helps that they cut this down into two rolls to prevent that issue.
Cons:
-Packing. NOTHING inherently wrong with it, but once you get the paper sleeve off of it, becomes a can-of-snakes prank toy as the stainless steel flies off the roll.
CAUTION/WARNING/ATTENTION:
-THIS IS STEEL AND THE EDGES CAN BE SHARP, BE CAREFUL. Though, I was cutting it and the sheet did run along the side of my thumb and I was worried it was slicing my thumb open, it didn't. Just be careful, since upon light tapping, your finger does kind of stick to it indicating its sharpness.
-If you're going to cut this, might I recommend the teethed Fiskar Titanium scissors (they're my favorite) ("Fiskars 9 Inch Serrated Titanium Nitride Shop Shears"), you're going to want heavier duty SHEARS to cut this, normal kitchen scissors will not go through this easily without immediate dulling.
Conclusion:
BUY IT if you need it. Great many uses for it. I make my own permanent filters for my AC. This would be a great outside layer. Then I'd get a copper mesh under layer, then I'd go with silver-impregnated cloth, and then walmart sheer curtains. I use 1in x 1.5 wood for the frame (actual is 3/4 deep and 1.25 wide, pine). The copper and silver will help kill microbes, copper is good against viruses, and silver is better against germs and bacteria. And since you do have a quarter inch to play with you can easily put a carbon filter layer on it as well. Then I just used 1/2in staples to cobble it together. Fun project. But you might want to buy a wider sheet than this. This is the perfect width for the vents upstairs. Though my three downstairs one are much wider than this. BACK ON POINT, I'm happy with the purchase.
