Sintered Mesh Filter

Sintered Mesh Filters are manufactured by laminating and sintering multiple layers of woven metal mesh under controlled temperature and pressure. The sintering process creates a rigid, stable filter medium with controlled pore size, excellent mechanical strength and consistent filtration performance.

Sintered mesh is particularly suitable for fine filtration, high-pressure filtration and demanding industrial processes where conventional single-layer woven mesh may not provide sufficient strength or stability.

Key Features

  • Multi-layer stainless steel woven mesh construction
  • High mechanical strength
  • Excellent dimensional stability
  • Controlled and consistent filtration rating
  • High pressure and temperature capability
  • Good resistance to corrosion
  • Can be cleaned and reused
  • Suitable for liquid and gas filtration
  • Available in discs, cylinders, cartridges and custom shapes

Typical Materials

  • SS304 / SS304L
  • SS316 / SS316L
  • SS316Ti
  • Inconel
  • Hastelloy
  • Nickel
  • Other alloys available upon request

Typical Sintered Mesh Construction

A standard sintered mesh may consist of 3, 5 or more layers, depending on the required filtration and mechanical performance.

A typical 5-layer construction may include:

  • Protective layer
  • Fine filtration layer
  • Filtration/control layer
  • Support layer
  • Coarse support layer

The layers are sintered together to form a rigid composite filter medium.

Available Filtration Ratings

Depending on the mesh construction, sintered mesh can be manufactured for fine filtration applications ranging from approximately:

1 µm to 200 µm

Actual filtration performance depends on mesh specification, layer construction, fluid properties and operating conditions.

Advantages of Sintered Mesh

  • High Mechanical Strength
    Multiple mesh layers provide significantly greater structural stability than a single woven mesh.
  • Precise Filtration
    The fine filtration layer provides controlled particle retention.
  • Excellent Pressure Resistance
    Suitable for applications involving differential pressure and demanding process conditions.
  • Cleanable and Reusable
    Depending on the application, sintered mesh can be cleaned using backwashing, ultrasonic cleaning, solvents or other suitable methods.
  • Corrosion Resistance
    Stainless steel and special alloys provide excellent resistance to many industrial fluids.
