Filter Discs Manufacturer | Wire Mesh, Sintered & Leaf Disc Filters | PFM SCREEN
Filter Discs are precision-engineered filtration components widely used in liquid and melt filtration systems across chemical processing, polymer extrusion, water treatment, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, and many other industrial sectors. Manufactured from high-quality wire mesh and advanced sintered materials, filter discs are designed to remove solid impurities, gels, and contaminants, ensuring stable process performance, equipment protection, and consistent product quality.
PFM SCREEN Filter Discs are available in a wide range of structures, materials, and filtration ratings to meet diverse operating conditions such as high pressure, high temperature, corrosive media, and continuous operation. From simple single-layer wire mesh discs to complex pressure leaf and polymer melt leaf disc filters, we provide both standard and fully customized filtration solutions.
Filter Discs Product Options
To address different filtration mechanisms and process requirements, PFM SCREEN offers a complete portfolio of Filter Discs, including:

Wire Mesh Filter Disc
Manufactured from woven wire mesh, these discs offer economical and reliable surface filtration. They can be produced in single-layer or multi-layer configurations and cut into various shapes according to customer drawings.

Sintered Wire Mesh Filter Disc
Made by diffusion bonding multiple layers of wire mesh, sintered filter discs provide superior mechanical strength, stable pore structure, and excellent filtration accuracy, suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature environments.

Spot Welded Filter Disc
Constructed by spot welding multiple mesh layers together, these filter discs enhance rigidity and service life while maintaining good permeability, commonly used in hydraulic, fuel, and lubrication systems.

Framed Filter Disc
Also known as Encased Screen Discs or Edge-Bound Filter Discs, these products feature metal frames that reinforce the mesh edge, prevent bypass, and improve sealing performance during installation.

Pleated Filter Disc
Designed with a pleated structure to significantly increase effective filtration area, pleated filter discs offer higher dirt-holding capacity and longer service life in compact filtration systems.

Pressure Leaf Disc Filter
A high-capacity industrial filtration element used in pressure leaf filters, ideal for batch or continuous filtration of liquids with high solids content.

Polymer Melt Leaf Disc Filter
Specially developed for polymer melt filtration, these leaf disc filters withstand extreme temperatures and pressures, effectively removing gels and contaminants in extrusion and spinning processes.
Advantages of PFM SCREEN's Filter Discs
PFM SCREEN Filter Discs are engineered to deliver reliable, long-term filtration performance under demanding industrial conditions. Key advantages include:
- Wide Filtration Accuracy Range
Available from coarse filtration to micron-level precision, filter discs can be tailored to control particle retention, gel removal, and solid separation across multiple process stages. - Multiple Structural Designs
From single-layer woven mesh to multi-layer sintered constructions and pleated high-surface-area designs, PFM SCREEN filter discs adapt to both low-pressure and high-pressure filtration systems. - High Mechanical Strength & Dimensional Stability
Sintered, spot welded, and framed filter discs maintain structural integrity under high differential pressure, vibration, and thermal cycling without deformation or mesh migration. - Excellent Flow Rate with Low Pressure Drop
Optimized mesh layouts and pleated structures ensure high permeability, reduced clogging, and stable flow performance, improving overall system efficiency. - Resistance to Extreme Operating Conditions
Manufactured from stainless steel and specialty alloys, filter discs withstand high temperature polymer melts, corrosive chemicals, and aggressive cleaning processes. - Long Service Life & Reusability
Many filter disc types are designed for backflushing, cleaning, or regeneration, reducing replacement frequency and total operating costs. - Flexible Customization Capability
Diameter, thickness, filtration rating, mesh structure, frame design, and connection details can all be customized to fit specific housings or process requirements.
