3-Layer Sintered Metal Mesh Filter, 20 Micron, 1500 PSI, 316L, for Oil & Gas Filtration
Product Spotlights
Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer with over 25 years of expertise in wire mesh and filtration solutions. Our 3-Layer Sintered Metal Mesh Filter, rated at 20 micron and 1500 PSI, is engineered specifically for demanding oil and gas filtration applications. Made from premium 316L stainless steel, this filter delivers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent performance under high pressure and temperature extremes. Whether you need to remove solid contaminants from crude oil, natural gas, or refinery fluids, our sintered mesh offers a reliable solution that minimizes downtime and maximizes operational efficiency.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Construction: 3 layers of woven 316L stainless steel mesh, sintered together to form a rigid, monolithic structure. Unlike single-layer filters, our multi-layer design provides superior mechanical strength and prevents media migration.
- Filtration Rating: 20 micron nominal (absolute rating available upon request). This ensures removal of fine particles while maintaining high flow rates.
- Pressure Rating: 1500 PSI (10.3 MPa) at ambient temperature. Higher pressure ratings are customizable for specific applications.
- Temperature Resistance: Suitable for continuous operation up to 600°F (315°C) with 316L material. Optional high-temperature alloys can be provided for extreme environments.
- Corrosion Resistance: 316L stainless steel offers excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in sour gas (H2S) and chloride-containing environments.
- Cleanability: The sintered structure allows for backwashing or ultrasonic cleaning, extending service life and reducing replacement costs.

Benefits for Your Oil & Gas Operations
- Reduced Maintenance: The robust sintered structure withstands high differential pressure and repeated cleaning cycles, drastically cutting filter replacement frequency.
- Consistent Performance: Uniform pore distribution ensures stable filtration efficiency from first use to last, eliminating the risk of bypass.
- Operational Safety: 316L material is non-sparking and resistant to hydrogen embrittlement, making it safe for use in explosive environments.
- Flow Optimization: High porosity (up to 60%) minimizes pressure drop, keeping your system running efficiently.
- Customization: We offer various sizes, shapes, and edge treatments (welded, crimped, or gasketed) to fit your existing housing.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a 3-layer sintered mesh and a standard wire mesh filter? A 3-layer sintered mesh is made by bonding multiple layers of woven mesh under heat and pressure, creating a rigid structure with high strength and precise filtration. It resists deformation and media migration, whereas standard mesh may shift or collapse under high pressure.
- Can this filter be used for water filtration in oil and gas? Yes, it is suitable for both oil and water-based fluids, provided the fluid is compatible with 316L stainless steel. For sour service, we recommend verifying H2S compatibility.
- What is the maximum operating temperature? The standard 316L version can handle up to 600°F (315°C). For higher temperatures, please inquire about alternative alloys such as 304 or Hastelloy.
- Do you offer custom sizes or shapes? Absolutely. We can produce discs, sheets, cylinders, and custom-formed parts to your specifications. Minimum order quantity may apply.
- How do I clean the filter? The filter can be backwashed with clean fluid, ultrasonically cleaned, or chemically cleaned using mild solvents. Avoid aggressive acids that may attack stainless steel.
- Is the 20 micron rating absolute or nominal? The standard rating is nominal. If you require an absolute rating (e.g., 99.9% efficiency), we can provide a test certificate upon request.
- What certifications do your products have? Our products are manufactured in accordance with international quality standards. Specific certifications can be provided upon customer request and third-party testing.
- What is the lead time for a typical order? For standard sizes, lead time is 15–20 working days. Custom orders may require 25–30 working days depending on complexity.
