Mesh filter bags provide surface filtration – a ‘sieving’ mechanism, causing particles larger than the pore size of the media to be captured on the surface of the media. They are excellent for removing non-deformable, solid particles and have no fibre migration. There are two types of mesh filter bags : Monofilament meshes have a woven structure of single filaments which are thermofixed to give a precise micron rating and a high mechanical strength. Typical applications include paints, inks, resins and other types of coatings where there is a need for a specific absolute micron ratingThe most common polymer is nylon, but we are also able offer polypropylene, polyester and fluoropolymer monofilament where the chemical compatibility and/or the maximum operating temperature of an application restricts the use of nylon. Micron ratings range from 1 – 1500 depending on polymer type. Monofilament mesh filter bags are manufactured in food safe and silicone free conditions. Multifilament meshes are a less accurate, low cost option for non-critical applications. Multiple filaments are twisted together to produce single threads which are woven to give a nominal rated, non-thermofixed mesh structure. They are available in polyester and are rated from 100 to 400 micron. Mesh filter bags have sewn seams, and are available in all industry standard sizes. A binding taped seam is standard for all meshes rated lower than 60 micron, and is offered as an option for meshes coarser than 60 micron.
