Sintered Wire Mesh Used in Oil & Gas Separation, 316L, 10 Micron, High Temperature Tolerance
Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, established in 1998, is a professional manufacturer specializing in high-quality wire mesh products. With annual export value exceeding US$5 million and serving markets across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, and Oceania, we bring decades of expertise to the oil and gas industry. Our Sintered Wire Mesh for Oil & Gas Separation is engineered from premium 316L stainless steel, featuring a precise 10-micron filtration rating and exceptional high-temperature tolerance. This product is designed to deliver reliable performance in demanding separation processes, ensuring operational efficiency and extended service life.
Product Overview
Our sintered wire mesh is a multi-layer composite material, where each layer is woven from 316L stainless steel wire and then bonded through a high-temperature sintering process. This creates a rigid, porous structure with uniform pore distribution and high mechanical strength. The 10-micron rating makes it ideal for fine filtration in oil and gas separation, removing solid contaminants from liquids and gases while withstanding harsh environments.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material: 316L stainless steel – excellent corrosion resistance against sour gas, seawater, and chemicals.
- Filtration Rating: 10 microns (nominal) – captures fine particles down to 10 micrometers.
- High Temperature Tolerance: Suitable for continuous operation up to 600°C (depending on media and pressure), ensuring stable performance in thermal processes.
- High Mechanical Strength: Sintering creates a rigid structure that withstands high differential pressure and backwashing.
- Uniform Pore Distribution: Consistent filtration efficiency, reducing bypass and plugging.
- Easy Cleaning & Regeneration: Can be backwashed, ultrasonically cleaned, or chemically regenerated for extended service life.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in rolls, sheets, or cut-to-size shapes; thickness can be adjusted from 1.7mm to 5mm.

Advantages for Oil & Gas Separation
- Enhanced Separation Efficiency: The 10-micron rating ensures removal of fine solids, protecting downstream equipment like pumps, compressors, and valves from wear.
- High Temperature Stability: Withstands thermal cycling and hot gas streams, common in refinery processes such as catalytic cracking and hydrotreating.
- Corrosion Resistance: 316L grade resists pitting and crevice corrosion in sour environments (H2S, chlorides), extending filter life.
- Reduced Maintenance: The robust sintered structure resists deformation under pressure, and the mesh can be cleaned repeatedly, reducing replacement frequency.
- Customizable for Specific Needs: We can tailor the number of layers, mesh density, and dimensions to match your separator design, whether for static or dynamic filtration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the difference between sintered wire mesh and woven wire mesh?
A: Sintered wire mesh is made by bonding multiple layers of woven mesh through heat and pressure, creating a rigid, porous structure. It offers higher strength, better pore uniformity, and can withstand higher differential pressures compared to single-layer woven mesh.
Q2: Can this mesh be used for gas filtration at high temperatures?
A: Yes, the 316L sintered mesh can operate continuously up to 600°C in oxidizing environments. For reducing conditions or higher temperatures, please consult our technical team for material recommendations.
Q3: Is the 10 micron rating absolute or nominal?
A: The 10 micron is a nominal rating, meaning the majority of particles of that size are retained. For absolute filtration requirements, we can provide custom specifications based on multi-layer designs.
Q4: What is the typical lifespan of this sintered mesh in oil & gas service?
A: Lifespan depends on operating conditions (temperature, pressure, contaminant loading). In typical applications, with proper cleaning (backwashing or ultrasonic), the mesh can last 1-3 years or more. Our factory provides lifetime technical support for maintenance.
Q5: Can you supply cut-to-size discs or custom shapes?
A: Yes, we offer custom shapes including discs, rectangles, and other geometries. Please provide a drawing or dimensions for a quote.
Q6: Do you have certifications for quality management?
A: Our factory follows strict internal quality control procedures. While we do not mention specific certifications without confirmation, we can provide test reports and material certificates upon request.
Q7: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: MOQ is typically 50 square meters for standard rolls, but smaller quantities may be available for sample orders. Contact us to discuss your needs.
Q8: How do I clean the sintered mesh after use?
A: Recommended methods include backwashing with clean fluid, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical soaking (if compatible with 316L). Avoid harsh mechanical brushing that could damage the sintered layers.
