Custom wire mesh filter discs in round, annular and drawing-defined shapes. Single-layer and multilayer constructions are specified around the required opening, support and edge treatment.
Metal wire meshShare a drawing, reference sample or application requirements to discuss the configuration.
Examples of metal filter discs with different outlines and edge constructions.
| Parameter | Specification | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Outline | Round, annular or drawing-defined profile | Define outside diameter, inside diameter, tabs, flats and datums. |
| Mesh construction | Weave, aperture and wire diameter | For dense weave, provide the complete media designation. A micron rating needs its source and test basis. |
| Layer arrangement | Single layer or specified filtering/support sequence | Confirm layer order and flow direction. |
| Edge finish | Open, joined, folded or framed perimeter | Selected around handling, edge stability and the sealing interface. |
| Diameter | Per approved drawing | Include dimensional tolerances and the installation envelope. |
| Material | Grade confirmed for process compatibility | Review the process medium, temperature and cleaning conditions. |
| Finished thickness | Agreed stack height | Check available space, closure and compression in the assembly. |
| Inspection | Agreed dimensional, media and edge checks | Any aperture or filtration verification requires an agreed method suited to the media. |
| Specification example | Example: 100 µm woven aperture; disc OD per drawing | — |
Materials: Material grade is confirmed against the process medium, operating conditions and joining requirements.
For square weave, specify aperture and wire diameter where possible. For dense weave, provide the weave and complete media designation. If the disc is described by a micron rating, identify the source and test basis. Mesh count alone does not define the finished part.
A single mesh layer may be sufficient when the equipment supports the screen. Multilayer discs add support or drainage where fine mesh would otherwise deform. Perimeter joining keeps the layers in register during handling and installation.
Open cut edges suit parts captured securely by the equipment. Joined edges reduce layer movement. A rim or frame strengthens the perimeter but adds thickness and reduces the available filtering area. The housing groove, gasket and clamping arrangement determine the appropriate construction.
Flat mesh screens seated in a housing, valve or strainer assembly. The equipment defines the support, clamping and seal around the disc.
Mesh discs used in polymer equipment with a specified layer sequence and support arrangement. Review flow direction and the operating conditions with the equipment requirements.
Compact flat screens for laboratory and process assemblies where outline, media identity and installed fit must be defined together.
Drawing-defined discs integrated into a larger filter element. Confirm the mating surfaces, joining method and how the filtering layer is supported.

Include these details when discussing your requirements.
Yes. Supply a drawing with datums, dimensions, tolerances and edge requirements so the profile and installed fit can be reviewed.
That depends on the weave, wire and handling. A joined or framed edge can be specified where edge stability is important.
Mixed-material assemblies require review for service compatibility, joining and potential galvanic effects.
No. Include the weave, aperture and wire diameter where applicable, along with material, layer arrangement, edge finish and drawing dimensions. A stated micron rating also needs its source and test basis.
