Common Specifications

1,Material: Most commonly 304 or 316/L Stainless Steel for excellent corrosion resistance. Also available in other alloys like Inconel, Monel, or plain steel.

2,Mesh Count: Ranges from coarse (e.g., 2x2 mesh) to very fine (e.g., 500x500 mesh).

3,Micron Rating: The absolute size of particles retained, typically from 1 micron (µm) up to several millimeters.

4,Diameter (OD): From small diameters (e.g., 1/2") to large diameters (e.g., 24" or more).

Key Features & Characteristics

1,Cylindrical Design: Offers a large surface area for filtration within a compact form factor, maximizing flow rates and reducing pressure drop.

2,Rigid & Self-Supporting: The welded or woven construction provides structural integrity, allowing the tube to withstand pressure differentials and mechanical stress without collapsing.

3,Precise Filtration: Available in a wide range of micron ratings (from 1 micron to 5000+ microns), enabling exact control over the size of particles retained.

4,High Flow Rates: The large open area of the mesh design allows for excellent fluid passage with minimal flow restriction.

5,Reusable & Cleanable: Most wire mesh tubes can be easily cleaned (via backwashing, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical wash) and reused multiple times, offering long-term cost efficiency.

6,Exceptional Durability: Made from robust materials like stainless steel, they resist corrosion, high temperatures, and wear, ensuring a long service life even in harsh environments.

7,Versatile End Connections: Can be manufactured with plain ends, flanged ends, threaded ends (male/female NPT), or with a welded base plate for easy integration into various filtration systems.
