If anyone has an idea or leads as to a mesh that will work as a coil please post or DM me.

From looking at the pics of units here on the forums, that needing glueing back together, with the coil showing
I think you want a thicker mesh
There's some examples here if you click on the stainless options on the left https://themeshcompany.com/shop/woven-wire-mesh/

(Learnt from my Herbie experimentations)

My guess is its some kinda stainless steel.

Not easy to fold in to the zig zag shape. Let me know if you find a good way.

It seems to me that Ryan gets his supplies here:

Thank you all for the links/research.
The thickest mesh vape wire on elementvape site was the ss 1.20 Ohms and is not as wide cut as what ryan is using(.6inch). But i still do think that it will work as a replacement mesh.
My kalipper is telling me the mesh has a .50mm spacing.

as you have your heater exposed, what hole size do you think the mesh is?

On my side, about the 2ZM, I have no idea because I haven't disassembled it (but I'm thinking of asking for a DIY 2ZM to replace the 4Mi and make a few modifications on this (like 21700 and the wiring under the heater (like a Milaana))), but I've done some research with the heater on my RBT Milaana 3 and I'm pretty sure it's this (on McMaster-Carr):

[Stainless Steel Wire Cloth] - [304 Stainless Steel]:

Part Number: 85385T92
Wire Dia.: 0.0055" -> 0.1397mm
Opening Size: 0.018" -> 0.4572mm
Open Area: 59%
Mesh Size: 42 x 42

Width: 0.546" -> 13.8684mm (23 opening size for 24 wire)
Length: To be determined!

Or this one:

[High-Volume Particle-Filtering Stainless Steel Wire Cloth] - [316 Stainless Steel]:

Part Number: 9230T58
Wire Dia.: 0.0055" -> 0.1397mm
Opening Size: 0.0183" -> 0.46482mm
Open Area: 59%
Mesh Size: 42 x 42

Width: 0.5529" -> 14.04366mm (23 opening size for 24 wire)
Length: To be determined!

My caliper indicates correctly the ⌀0.13mm wire. About the opening size, I've tried inserting a ⌀0.4mm wire in it and it leaves a gap. I made the same test with a ⌀0.5mm wire and it doesn't fit. It is therefore highly likely that the opening size will be ~0.45mm, as in previous specifications (according to my research, these are the only two sizes available with these specifications on McMaster-Carr).









I wanted to order a sample to compare them and be completely sure, but unfortunately McMaster-Carr recently changed its conditions and now refuses to sell to any customer outside the United States. Ryan (ironically, that's the name of the person I conversed with at McMaster-Carr) told me he had adopt a “conservative” approach :shrug: However, the product seems to be imported from the People's Republic of China and I will do some research on this subject to find an identical mesh supplier in China (I'd like to design my DIY 4Mi :p).
