SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridge
Aris Filtration manufactures SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridges for industrial liquid filtration where durability, high flow, chemical compatibility and reusability are important. Available in cylindrical and pleated designs, these stainless steel cartridges can be supplied in SS304, SS316 and SS316L configurations, with micron ratings from 2 to 100+ microns and customized dimensions.
What is an SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridge?
An SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridge is a reusable industrial filter cartridge made using stainless steel wire mesh as the filtration medium. It separates suspended particles and solid contaminants from process fluids while allowing the filtered liquid to pass through the mesh openings.
Unlike disposable fiber-based filter cartridges, stainless steel wire mesh cartridges can be cleaned and reused, making them suitable for processes where repeated filtration cycles, chemical compatibility and mechanical durability are important.
The filtration medium can be supplied in cylindrical wrap-round or pleated construction. Pleated designs provide a larger filtration area within a compact cartridge size, while cylindrical configurations offer a straightforward and robust filtration arrangement.
Aris Filtration offers SS wire mesh filter cartridges for applications involving water, oils, chemicals, solvents, paints, inks, ceramics and sand filtration.
Why are stainless steel wire mesh filter cartridges used for industrial filtration?
Stainless steel wire mesh is selected when a filtration application requires a durable medium that can withstand demanding process conditions and repeated cleaning.
Key advantages include:
- Reusable and cleanable construction for repeated filtration cycles
- High flow rate for process applications requiring efficient fluid movement
- High filtration area, particularly with pleated configurations
- Low pressure drop when correctly selected for the application
- High dirt-holding capacity
- Good chemical compatibility compared with many fiber-based media
- Suitable for demanding industrial environments
- Easy installation and replacement
- Available in different micron ratings and cartridge configurations
Key statement: SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridges are reusable industrial filters designed to combine high flow, controlled particle filtration and cleanability in demanding process applications.

Final cartridge selection should be based on the process fluid, particle characteristics, required micron rating, flow requirement, temperature, chemical compatibility, housing configuration and cleaning method.
What is the difference between cylindrical and pleated SS wire mesh cartridges?
The two configurations are designed for different filtration requirements.
Cylindrical Wrap-Round Filter Cartridge
A cylindrical wire mesh cartridge uses a wrap-round mesh construction around the supporting core. It provides a simple, robust filtration arrangement and can be used where the available filtration area and flow requirement are suitable for the application.
Pleated SS Wire Mesh Filter Cartridge
A pleated cartridge folds the filtration medium into multiple pleats. This increases the available filtration area within the same general cartridge envelope.
Key statement: Pleated SS wire mesh cartridges are useful when a process requires greater filtration area without proportionally increasing the cartridge housing footprint.
How does an SS Wiremesh Filter Cartridge work?
The filtration process is based on the controlled openings in the stainless steel wire mesh.
- Fluid enters the cartridge housing: Contaminated process fluid reaches the filter cartridge.
- Particle separation occurs: Suspended particles larger than the effective filtration opening are retained by the mesh.
- Filtered fluid passes through: The liquid moves through the mesh and exits the cartridge.
- Contaminant accumulates: Retained solids build up on the filtration surface.
- Cleaning restores the filter: The reusable cartridge can be removed and cleaned according to the process requirements.
For applications requiring verification of pore-opening integrity, Aris Filtration states that bubble point testing can be carried out to check that openings are not larger than the specified pore size.
