Wedge Wire Screen Basket Strainers for Industrial Filtration | Customizable & Durable
Wedge Wire Screen Baskets (also known as profile wire baskets or V-wire screens) are the gold standard in heavy-duty mechanical separation. Engineered for precision and built to withstand extreme environments, our baskets offer a unique combination of structural integrity and superior flow rates. Whether you are in mining, food processing, or petrochemicals, these baskets provide a non-clogging, low-maintenance solution for your most demanding filtration challenges.
Advantages of Single Layer Sintered Mesh
- High Filtration Efficiency: The wedge wire design allows for precise filtration, with a consistent gap between the wires, ensuring optimal separation performance.
- Durable and Long-Lasting: Made from stainless steel or other corrosion-resistant materials, wedge wire baskets offer high strength and resistance to wear, ensuring a long service life.
- Non-Clogging: The wedge-shaped design of the wire allows for a self-cleaning effect, reducing the risk of clogging even under heavy-duty conditions.
- Customizable: Available in various sizes, shapes, and specifications to meet the specific needs of different industries and applications.
- Cost-Effective: Wedge wire screen baskets require less maintenance and have a longer lifespan than traditional filtration components, making them a cost-effective solution.

Applications of Single Layer Sintered Mesh
Wedge Wire Screen Baskets are critical components in the following sectors:
- Water & Wastewater Treatment: Used in intake screens, drum filters, sand filter underdrains, and as well screens for water wells and dewatering wells, offering high flow rates and effective sand control.
- Mining & Mineral Processing: Essential for dewatering screens in coal and ore processing, tailings management, and mineral recovery due to their abrasion resistance and precise separation.
- Food & Beverage: Employed for filtering juices, syrups, edible oils, and process water. Stainless steel construction meets hygiene standards.
- Chemical & Petrochemical: Suitable for filtering aggressive chemicals, catalysts, and polymers. Compatible with a wide range of corrosion-resistant alloys.
- Oil & Gas: Used in produced water treatment, sand control screens (e.g., resin trap screens), and filtration of completion fluids.
- Pulp & Paper: Applied in pulp screening baskets (e.g., pressure screens) to remove contaminants and ensure fiber quality while saving energy.
