Your word "cloth" is weird. Are you talking about the micron mesh? Micron mesh is a fairly stiff plastic mesh screening (lower micron, like 27 micron is less stiff, maybe cloth-like). What are you using it for? The micron mesh from Amazon.com that is made of nylon or polyester is fine for aquariums - I've been using it for years.

Is this what you're looking for?

I don't think you will find it any cheaper than Amazon. If that's the stuff, search for "200 micron mesh" on Amazon and you can see all the different options for sizing. You could always buy a 200 micron mesh filter bag and cut it open to make it flat.
