Industrial Wedge Wire Filter Cylinder

Product Introduction

Our industrial wedge wire filter cylinder, also called Johnson filter tube, is manufactured by welding triangular profile wire onto parallel support rods with fixed spacing. It forms continuous V-shaped openings on the surface. This unique tapered slot design works much better than perforated plate and woven wire mesh for separation tasks. It is a durable filter element for solid-liquid, solid-gas separation and medium interception in different industrial systems.

Product & Company Advantages (Anping Haopeng Metal Wire Mesh Co., Ltd.)

We are a professional manufacturer based in Anping, China’s well-known wire mesh hometown. We finish the whole production process in-house, from wedge wire forming, automatic welding, surface finishing to final inspection and packing.

We adjust slot precision, dimensions and material plans according to your actual working conditions. Both small trial batches and large volume orders are acceptable.

Every batch of filter cylinders goes through strict pre-shipment checks on slot gap, welding quality and roundness.

Our team provides practical guidance for product selection and installation. We keep steady lead times and can arrange priority production for urgent orders.

Our industrial wedge wire filter cylinders are supplied to customers across many regions, and we accept third-party inspection as requested.


Customer Feedback

Many buyers comment that our filter cylinders have steady slot consistency and run for a long time without frequent clogging. Most users find the service life longer compared with ordinary woven filter mesh.

Clients equipped with backwash systems say these tubes clean easily, and flow rate bounces back well after backwashing.

Engineering customers mention we revise drawings quickly, and custom flanges or threaded ends fit their existing equipment perfectly.

Customers operating in corrosive environments are satisfied with the stable performance of our 316L and duplex steel filter cylinders.


FAQ

Q1: Can you make non-standard sizes and custom slot gaps?

A1: Yes. We produce custom items following your drawings or technical specifications.

Q2: Which material fits seawater service?

A2: 316L works for mild corrosion. 2205 or 2507 duplex stainless steel is recommended for long-term seawater exposure.

Q3: What is the maximum working pressure this filter cylinder can take?

A3: It depends on outer diameter, length, material and support rod layout. We will offer pressure reference after confirming your full parameters.

Q4: Can I get samples first?

A4: Samples are available. Sample cost and freight will be discussed separately.

Q5: What is the proper cleaning method for wedge wire filter cylinder?

A5: Backwashing is the preferred method. Offline high-pressure water washing or ultrasonic cleaning also works. Do not scrape the slot with hard tools to avoid damage.

Q6: How long is your production lead time?

A6: Regular ready items can ship fast. Custom products normally take 15-20 days, based on order quantity and processing difficulty.

RELATED FAQ
What is Wedge Wire Screen Tube?

The wedge wire filter element is a filter element composed of a "V" shaped stainless steel wire and a stainless steel support strip. Its smooth surface is the filter surface, and the gap is a strip, which belongs to the surface filtration form.

What are the primary applications of wedge wire Screen Tube?

Wedge wire filter elements are widely used in many fields, mainly including petrochemical, food and beverage, pharmaceutical, water treatment.

What is the difference between wedge wire filter elements and other wire mesh filter elements?

The wedge-shaped wire filter element has a higher filtration efficiency and can achieve extremely high filtration effects by controlling the particle gaps of the wedge-shaped mesh.


The wedge-shaped wire filter element is suitable for high-flow and high-pressure industrial filtration occasions, especially for industrial water, drinking water purification, sand separation and treatment, sewage treatment and other fields.

What is the material of wedge wire?

The main material of wedge wire is stainless steel. Specifically, wedge wire is usually made of high-quality stainless steel materials, such as 302, 304, 304L, 316L, etc.

Where are wedge wire screen tube used?

Industries include water treatment, oil and gas, pulp and paper, mining, and food and beverage.

What is the expected lifespan of wedge wire screen tube?

With proper maintenance, wedge wire screens can have a long lifespan, often exceeding 10 years.

What is a perforated metal anti-skid plate?

A perforated metal anti-skid plate is a type of metal plate that combines a perforated design with anti-slip or anti-skid features. 

Where are perforated metal anti-skid plates used?

Industrial Flooring:

Used in factories, warehouses, and production lines as flooring or walkways to provide a non-slip surface for workers.

Staircases and Platforms:

Used for stairs, ladders, and elevated platforms to provide safe access and reduce the risk of slips and falls.

Vehicle and Transport Decks:

Commonly used in trucks, trailers, or shipping containers to create a stable, non-slip surface for cargo handling.

Outdoor and Marine Applications:

Used in outdoor environments such as docks, walkways, and industrial outdoor installations where water or mud can create slippery conditions.

What are the common types of perforated metal sheets?

Perforated Sheet with Raised Patterns: Features raised sections in the perforated pattern for enhanced anti-slip properties.

Serrated Metal Plate: Uses serrated edges or a textured surface in combination with perforations to improve skid resistance.

What is the material of perforated metal sheet?

▪Stainless Steel: Resistant to corrosion and durable, ideal for harsh environments like marine, chemical, or food processing industries.

▪Aluminum: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, commonly used in transportation, aerospace, and exterior architectural applications.

▪Carbon Steel: Strong and cost-effective, often used in industrial and construction settings.
