Product Introduction

The Sintered Stainless Steel Filter Cartridge is engineered from high-quality stainless steel woven wire mesh or stainless steel fiber felt, providing exceptional durability and performance in demanding industrial applications. Constructed by overlapping multiple layers of wire mesh and sintering them together in a vacuum furnace, the cartridge is rolled into a precise cylindrical shape with both ends welded. A rolling seam welding process ensures uniform roundness and flatness, resulting in a rigid, mechanically robust structure that surpasses conventional wire mesh filters and overcomes common issues such as low strength and unstable pore geometry. This advanced design also outperforms sintered powder and ceramic filters in structural integrity and longevity.

The filter cartridge is available in a wide range of materials, including SUS 316L, SUS 304, 316, 304, 317L, 904L, 321, titanium, and other specialty alloys, making it suitable for highly corrosive or high-temperature environments. Its filtration precision ranges from 0.2 µm to 300 µm, ensuring fine particle retention for liquids, gases, and solids. Standard outer diameters are 64 mm, with alternative sizes ranging from 30 mm to 350 mm, while the standard inner diameter is 28 mm. Lengths are available from 10 in (254 mm) up to 60 in (1524 mm), with connection options including single open end, double open end, and double O-ring configurations, providing compatibility with diverse filtration systems.

Designed for extreme operating conditions, the cartridge maintains structural stability and high permeability across a temperature range of -200 °C to 1000 °C. Its interlaced mesh structure provides superior dirt holding capacity and allows for efficient backflushing, extending service life and reducing maintenance requirements. This filter element is widely utilized in aerospace, chemical, food, petroleum, and metallurgical industries, supporting applications such as gas distribution in fluidized beds, washing and drying in pharmaceutical production, water treatment and gas filtration in the food and beverage sector, fine hydraulic and lubricating oil filtration in mechanical engineering, and polymer filtration in chemical processes.

By combining mechanical strength, corrosion resistance, precise pore structure, and broad adaptability, the Sintered Stainless Steel Filter Cartridge is engineered for high-performance industrial filtration, providing reliable and consistent results in challenging operational environments.​​​​​​​
