Pleated Metal Mesh Melt Filter Element – Product Page
Overview
The Pleated Metal Mesh Melt Filter Element is a high‑performance precision filter designed for the continuous filtration of high‑viscosity polymer melts, chemicals, hydraulic fluids, water, and hot gases. Manufactured entirely from stainless steel media – including sintered fibre felt and woven wire mesh – this element combines exceptional mechanical strength with outstanding filtration efficiency.
The pleated (corrugated) configuration maximises the active filtration area within a compact envelope, delivering high flow rates, extended service life, and reliable operation under extreme temperatures and pressures. It is the preferred choice for demanding industrial processes where product purity and process continuity are critical.
Key Features
-
Premium Filter Media – Constructed from stainless steel fibre sintered felt and stainless steel woven wire mesh. Sintered felt is a porous depth‑type material produced by high‑temperature sintering of fine stainless steel fibres, offering a graded pore structure for precise particle capture.
-
Pleated Design – The corrugated fold pattern significantly increases the effective filtration area (typically 5–10 times that of a plain cylindrical element), resulting in lower pressure drop and higher dirt‑holding capacity.
-
High Porosity & Permeability – The open‑pore structure ensures minimal flow resistance while maintaining high retention efficiency.
-
Excellent Dirt‑Holding Capacity – The depth‑filtration mechanism traps contaminants throughout the media thickness, extending element life and reducing replacement frequency.
-
Reusable & Cleanable – The all‑metal construction allows repeated cleaning by back‑flushing, back‑washing, ultrasonic, or chemical methods, delivering long operational life and lower total cost of ownership.
-
Outstanding Thermal & Mechanical Strength – Withstands temperatures from –200 °C up to 800 °C and pressures up to 30 MPa, with resistance to vibration, thermal cycling, and fluid erosion.
-
Corrosion Resistance – Standard material (SUS316L or equivalent) provides excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, and many aggressive chemical media.
