Wedge Wire Screen Filters and Components
Wedge Wire Screen Filters & Components | Industrial Filtration Solutions
Wedge Wire Screen Filters and Components are precision-engineered filtration and separation solutions widely used in water treatment, mining, oil & gas, chemical processing, food & beverage, pulp & paper, and other industrial sectors. Manufactured from profiled wedge-shaped wire and support rods through resistance welding, these products provide accurate slot openings, excellent mechanical strength, and superior flow performance.
Compared with conventional woven wire mesh or perforated plates, wedge wire screens offer non-clogging surface characteristics, high open area, and long service life under demanding operating conditions. At PFM SCREEN, we supply a comprehensive range of wedge wire screen filters and custom-fabricated components designed to meet specific process, flow rate, pressure, and filtration accuracy requirements.
Wedge Wire Screen Filters and Components Product Options
PFM SCREEN offers a full portfolio of wedge wire screen filters and components, covering both standard and custom-engineered solutions:
Wedge Wire Screen Basket
Used in extrusion, polymer filtration, and industrial liquid filtration systems for fine particle removal and melt filtration.
Wedge Wire Rotary Drum Screen
Designed for continuous solid-liquid separation in wastewater treatment, industrial effluent treatment, and process water filtration.
Wedge Wire Water Well Screen
