braddsn Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Hey fellas.. can anyone point me to a place to get a 40 and 60 mesh screen for screening comps and chems? I usually get my screens at skylighter but they have been out of stock for awhile. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumbles Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 There are a couple of different places. All of mine have come from McMaster-Carr. Granted these will be just the raw screen material, they still need to be assembled into functional items. There are other suppliers for the same items and you may be able to find a better price if you shop around. If you were looking for something pre-assembled, you may want to try bucketscreen.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patsroom Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 One other place you might check out and that would b e-Bay for stainless steel screens..............Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TYRONEEZEKIEL Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I would have to check, but I may have an extra set of both of those screens lying around. If I've got them I'd be happy to sell em to you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
braddsn Posted January 27, 2015 Author Share Posted January 27, 2015 Tyrone, I am lookin to order them tonight... if you have them, I am interested. Framed?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livingston Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Lol... I just finished putting on polyethylene coating and tomorrow I'll be putting the screen. I got mine from McMaster Carr. There super fast in Delievery. I got a 40 mesh 12x24 for $20. I laugh because we were talking about this the other night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

braddsn Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Mcmaster Carr is the route I took. Thanks Mumbles. They have every option under the sun. And for what it's worth, it's great quality screen for a great price, and the shipping was lightning fast. I ordered it and it was at my house 48 hrs later. I only gave 20 bucks per 12x24 screen, and it's stainless. That's hard to beat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

memo Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 nice welcome to the forum, first post and mumbles clinbs down my throat.... maybe there are better places to be than hear memo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mumbles Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I apologize if I hurt your feelings. If you read the thread, you will notice that he was in fact already aware of the source you mentioned saying he generally gets them there. It also becomes more clear that he was looking for pre-framed screens. If you go to Skylighter you will notice that at least one of them (40 mesh) is currently and actively out of stock.

wildcherryxoxo Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hey maybe check out skylighter (I'll let myself out) Brad, McMaster is sick, if you can id recommend recessing the screen like 6 inches into the box, I seriously wish I had on all mine.

eekAmouse Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Check Grainger industrial supply. Shipping is slower than McMaster but screens are about 8.50 http://m.grainger.com/mobile/search/wire-cloth/wire-cloth/raw-materials/ecatalog/N-aygZ1z0yozaZ1z0yozh/Ntt-stainless+mesh?navigatingFromPage=%2Fcategory%2Fwire-cloth%2Fwire-cloth%2Fraw-materials%2Fecatalog%2FN-ayg%2FNtt-stainless%2Bmesh%3FnavigatingFromPage%3D%252Fsearch%252Fecatalog%252FN-%252FNtt-stainless%252Bmesh%253Fsst%253Dsubset%26sst%3Dsubset%26youSearchedFor%3Dstainless%2Bmesh&sst=All&youSearchedFor=Wire+Cloth Sorry the link is for mobile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobosan Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Skylighter just got some more in and running a sale on UNframed screens. http://www.skylighter.com/onsale.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlaMtnBkr Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 (edited) guess what, i have a raised middle finger for yaWho has the problem with people skills? Oh, and if you plan on using the screens much a 12"x24" is nice to have. You can that size from places like McMaster and Grainger for less than the 12"x12" at Skylighter even on sale. I like Harry and glad he provides the service that Skylighter does but their prices can be a bit high.

braddsn Posted February 11, 2015 Author Share Posted February 11, 2015 No prob Tyrone! I do recommend Mcmaster-Carr to anyone needing screens. It's the fastest shipping I have ever seen... and the options are literally limitless.. as I said before. I did recess my screens about 3" into the frame, and I got 12x24". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
