Introduction
For industries dealing with high-pressure liquids, gases, chemicals, or viscous materials, single-layer mesh often fails to deliver consistent performance. That’s where multi-layer stainless steel wire mesh filters become essential. They combine strength, precision, and durability to handle critical industrial requirements.
Industries like petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, water treatment, and food processing depend on these multi-layer structures for safety and efficiency.
What Are Multi-Layer Wire Mesh Filters?
These filters are made by layering multiple screens of different mesh sizes and bonding them through:
- Sintering (heat bonding)
- Diffusion bonding
- Welding
Each layer has a specific purpose:
- Top layer → protection
- Middle layers → precision filtration
- Bottom layer → support
Advantages of Multi-Layer Filters
1. Superior Strength for High-Pressure Filtration
High-pressure pipelines and chemical reactors need filters that won’t deform.
Multi-layer mesh maintains shape even under intense pressure.
2. Consistent Filtration Accuracy
Different layers trap particles at different levels, ensuring uniform filtration.
3. Longer Service Life
Multi-layer filters resist:
- Wear
- Heat
- Corrosion
- Pressure fatigue
4. High Flow Rate with Support
Support layers prevent clogging and allow better flow compared to single-layer fine mesh.
5. Versatile Customization
Mesh sizes, layers, bonding method, thickness — all customizable.
