The Book of Terms

Plain Weave

1) A weave used on woven cables. Threads between the wires act as binders and give the cable lateral stiffness and linear flexibility. 2) A weave widely used for coarse filtering purposes. This application is also called Standard and Square Weave. The standard weave is one in which each warp wire passes over and under the successive rows of weft wires and vice versa. All warp wires are parallel and equally spaced, as are the weft wires.
