Key features and specifications

Wire mesh filter disc is highly customizable to meet specific filtration requirements

Materials:Most commonly made from Stainless Steel Wire Mesh (like 304, 316, and 316L for corrosion resistance), but also available in materials such as galvanized steel, brass, copper, nickel, and various alloys for different operating environments.

Construction:

Single Layer: A simple, cost-effective option for general filtration.

Multi-Layer (Filter disc): Multiple layers of woven wire mesh, sometimes with varying mesh sizes, are combined through spot welding, edge covering, or sintering (bonding layers together under heat and pressure) to offer enhanced strength, precise pore sizing, and greater filtration efficiency.

Weave Types:The pattern in which the wires are woven determines the filtration

characteristics:

Plain Weave: Wires pass over one and under the next.

Twill Weave: Wires pass over two and under two, providing greater strength.

Plain Dutch Weave/Reverse Dutch Weave: Uses different diameters and counts for warp and weft wires to create very fine filtration apertures (microns) for critical processes.

Wire mesh discs are used across a vast range of industries due to their durability and effectiveness. Common applications include:

1,Food & Beverage: Filtering syrups, oils, beers, wines, and removing solids from ingredients.

2,Pharmaceutical: Sterile filtration of process gases and liquids, in-line filtering during manufacturing.

3,Chemical Processing: Corrosive fluid filtration, catalyst recovery, and straining process chemicals.

4,Oil & Gas: Filtering fuel, lubricants, and hydraulic fluids to protect sensitive equipment.

5,Water Treatment: Pre-filtration to remove sediment and particulate matter.

6,Pneumatic Systems: Filtering compressed air to remove moisture and particulate.
