- Corrosion Resistance: 304 stainless steel provides excellent resistance to rust, chemicals, and high humidity, making it ideal for water treatment, wastewater, and industrial filtration.
- Precision Mesh: The 500-micron aperture effectively captures sand, sediment, rust particles, and other solid contaminants while maintaining high flow rates.
- Customizable Options: We offer various edge treatments (plain, welded, or reinforced), thicknesses, and connection types (flange, clamp, or threaded) to fit your specific housing or system.
- Easy Maintenance: The circular design allows for quick backwashing or manual cleaning – simply rinse with water or brush off debris to restore performance.
- Durable Construction: Each filter is woven from high-quality stainless steel wire and then spot-welded or crimped to ensure uniform mesh openings and long service life.
Benefits for Your Application:
- Reduces downtime by minimizing clogging – the 500-micron level balances fine filtration with low pressure drop.
- Protects expensive downstream equipment such as pumps, valves, and membranes from abrasive particles.
- Works in a wide temperature range (up to 400°C / 750°F) and is compatible with both potable water and aggressive process fluids.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):
-
What is the exact micron rating of this filter?
It is 500 micron (0.5 mm), which allows particles larger than 0.5 mm to be retained. This is suitable for general water pre-filtration, irrigation, and industrial process water. -
Can this filter be used for oil or chemical filtration?
Yes, 304 stainless steel is resistant to many chemicals and oils. However, we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific fluid; we can also supply 316L grade if needed. -
How do I install this circular mesh filter?
The filter can be placed inside a housing or clamped between flanges. We can customize the edge with a gasket groove or weld ring for a secure seal. -
What is the maximum operating pressure?
Pressure rating depends on the edge reinforcement and support structure. For a standard 18-inch disc, typical working pressure is up to 10 bar (145 psi). Higher pressure options are available with reinforced frames. -
Do you offer custom sizes or micron ratings?
Absolutely. We can produce filters from 100 micron to 5000 micron and diameters from 4 to 40 inches. Minimum order quantity may apply for custom sizes. -
How long is the lead time?
For standard 18-inch 500-micron filters, lead time is typically 7–15 days after order confirmation. Custom orders may take 15–25 days depending on quantity. -
Is this filter reusable?
Yes, it is designed for repeated cleaning. Simply backwash or brush off the captured solids. The stainless steel mesh will not degrade under normal use. -
Can I get a sample before bulk order?
Yes, we offer samples for quality evaluation. Please contact our sales team for pricing and shipping details.
