Sintered Mesh Filter

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.
