Expanded metal filters, also referred to as expanded mesh filter cylinders, are manufactured from expanded metal sheets. Common structural types include both longitudinal welded pipes and spiral welded pipes. The expanded metal is slit and stretched using punching machines to create various hole patterns, resulting in a product with a robust structure that maintains its shape over time without deformation.
As a result, expanded metal cylindrical filters offer greater rigidity and durability compared to wire mesh filter tubes. We supply expanded metal filters in standard specifications, with diameters ranging from 10 mm to 300 mm and lengths of up to 3 meters. These tubes are typically made from aluminum, galvanized steel, or stainless steel.
Expanded metal mesh is a material that is precision-cut and stretched from a single piece of sheet metal. It is not woven or welded, and its most notable feature is the absence of welds and waste, resulting in a unique diamond-shaped mesh structure.
Expanded metal mesh is widely used across various fields due to its integral weld-free structure, lightweight strength, anti-slip performance, and permeability:
