Pleated Wire Mesh Filter Element

Folding wire mesh filter is a type of filter element made by folding and processing metal woven mesh (mostly stainless steel). Its design increases the effective filtration area, improves filtration efficiency and pollutant holding capacity. Mainly used for precision filtration of liquids or gases, widely applied in industries such as petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, food, aviation, machinery, etc.

  • Characteristic Advantages

    1. Large filtration area: The folding structure increases the filtration area per unit volume.
    2. Reusable cleaning and use: It can be cleaned multiple times using methods such as ultrasonic waves or reverse flushing.
    3. High temperature and corrosion resistance: Made of materials such as stainless steel, Monel, titanium, etc., suitable for harsh environments.
    4. Sturdy structure, not easily deformed: suitable for high-pressure and high-speed fluid filtration applications.
    5. The filtering accuracy can be customized: from tens of micrometers to hundreds of micrometers.
  • Common Specifications

    1. Filter layer material: stainless steel woven mesh, stainless steel sintered mesh, multi-layer composite mesh
    2. Inner skeleton: perforated stainless steel support tube
    3. End cap: stainless steel or carbon steel, welded or bonded for fixation
    4. Sealing methods: silicone ring, fluororubber ring, metal welding, etc
