Benefits Of Wedge Wire

Wedge wire has significant benefits over other filter media:
—The wedge-shaped profile tends to prohibit clogging as the opening gets progressively larger across its geometry. If a particle penetrates the filter surface it will continue through without obstructing flow.
— Wedge Wire is extremely rigid and able to withstand vigorous cleaning and maintenance. Its construction allows for higher operating pressure differentials without failure or deflection.
— Cleaning is quick and effective. It’s smooth filter surface results in effective contaminant release. Backwashing is far more effective than other media. Because of the wedge-shaped opening, backwash velocity increases across the screen aiding the removal of particulates.

Where and How is Wedge Wire Used?

Wedge Wire screens are used in a variety of processes and industries.

Specific Applications include:
Architectural Applications
Food Processing
Brewery Beer Tanks
Coal Mine
Oil and Gas

Wedge wire could be utilized in all of the above industries as well as many more applications across other industries. Wherever filtration may be required, wedge wire should be carefully considered due to its effectiveness and the fact that it can be supplied as a final product.
Types Of Wedge Wire

Wedge Wire is manufactured as tubes for filter elements, laterals, and baskets. It is also supplied as panels, Cylindrical, and various shapes.
Flat screen and Cylindrical screens are the most dominant types, but within cylindrical, there can be round and basket screens.
If necessary, cylindrical screens can but cut and rolled flat into a flat-screen configuration, and flat screens can also be rolled formed into cylindrical screens. Each of these will depend on the application.
