Product Spotlights
Reliable 316L Sintered Wire Mesh Cartridge – 10 Micron, 2.5" x 10" – 100% Stainless Steel Water Filtration
As a trusted manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory brings you a high-performance 316L Sintered Wire Mesh Cartridge engineered for demanding liquid filtration applications. This cartridge is constructed entirely from 100% stainless steel – no plastic cores, no end caps – offering exceptional durability, chemical resistance, and thermal stability. With a precise 10 micron rating and a standard 2.5" x 10" size, it is ideal for water filtration, process fluids, and high-temperature environments where conventional pleated or string-wound cartridges fall short. Our sintered wire mesh technology ensures consistent pore size, high dirt holding capacity, and easy cleanability, making it a cost-effective solution for both industrial and municipal water treatment systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between a sintered wire mesh cartridge and a pleated cartridge?
A: Sintered cartridges are made entirely of metal by bonding multiple layers of wire mesh under heat and pressure, forming a rigid, porous structure. They offer higher strength, temperature resistance, and cleanability compared to pleated cartridges (which often use paper or polymer media). Sintered types are best for demanding applications where reuse is important. -
Q: Can this 10 micron cartridge be used for oil filtration?
A: Yes, the 316L stainless steel material is compatible with most oils, hydraulic fluids, and lubricants. The cartridge can withstand high viscosity and temperature. For specific oil types, please confirm the compatibility of the seal material (e.g., Viton for high-temperature oils). -
Q: How do I clean the sintered cartridge?
A: The cartridge can be cleaned by backwashing with clean water or solvent, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical soaking (e.g., acid cleaning for mineral deposits). It is recommended to follow the manufacturer's guidelines to avoid damage to the mesh. Proper cleaning can restore the original flow rate. -
Q: What is the standard end cap configuration for this cartridge?
A: The standard is double open end (DOE) with no end cap – the cartridge fits onto a center rod or into a housing with end seals. Custom end caps (flat, gasket, spear, threaded) are available upon request. Please specify your housing type when ordering. -
Q: What is the operating pressure limit?
A: The maximum differential pressure is 150 psi (10.3 bar) at ambient temperature. For reverse flow (backwashing), the limit is 50 psi. Ensure the cartridge is not subjected to pressure spikes beyond these values. -
Q: Are there any certifications for this product?
A: Our manufacturing process follows strict quality control standards. While specific certifications like NSF or FDA are not claimed unless requested, we can provide material test reports (MTR) and performance data. For special applications, we can work with third-party testing laboratories upon request. -
Q: How long is the lead time for custom orders?
A: Standard 10" cartridges are typically in stock. For custom sizes, micron ratings, or end caps, lead time is 7–15 working days depending on quantity. Please contact our sales team for accurate estimates. -
Q: Can I get a sample before placing a bulk order?
A: Yes, we offer samples for evaluation. Sample cost is typically low, and shipping is at buyer's expense. Sample orders can be processed quickly. Contact us for details.
