Benefits of Wedge Wire
The stainless steel wedge or triangular shaped wire is widest at the point where the fluid first makes contact with the screen.As the fluid moves through the wire the open area increases ensuring solids smaller in size than the opening at the head of the wire pass through without clogging.Load bars are behind the wedge wire after the screening or filtering action has occurred and are resistance welded to wedge wire wrap at every intersection. This increases the resistance of the screen to high collapse pressures and buckling.The aperture or opening is set to the particle retention size required for your application.In summary wedge wire is a robust, low maintenance, highly productive and efficient screening or filtering medium for a wide range of industrial applications
