Standard 5‑Layer Sintered Wire Mesh

The standard 5-layer sintered wire mesh is the most commonly used sintered wire mesh for filtration and separation, which we call A-type.

Layer Structure of Five-layer Sintered Wire Mesh Laminate

The surface layer of A-type is 100 mesh plain square weave wire cloth, which is the protective layer of the second filter control layer. The control layer determines the filtration level, which can be square weave, Dutch weave, twill weave or other types of wire cloth. The third layer is usually the same as the first layer, but usually acts as a dispersion and transition layer. The fourth and fifth layers are both 12×64 Dutch weave wire mesh, but with a 90-degree change. These two reinforcement layers provide support and strength for the sintered wire mesh.

Common filter ratings for A-type sintered wire mesh include 1 2 5 10 20 microns. Other micron ratings are also available upon request.

For some situations where higher pressure resistance is required, we will add an additional sixth layer of 12 mesh wire mesh to provide greater thickness and higher strength.

Filter element types made of 5-layer standard sintered wire mesh

Filter elements of sintered wire mesh type can be formed into filter cartridges, filter baskets/filters, filter discs, filter cones, filter tubes for almost all applications with micron filtration requirements.
