Sanitary Precision Stainless Steel Filter Mesh

Designed for use in food, pharmaceutical, and other sanitary environments, this precision filter mesh is sintered (fused together) to create a strong, smooth surface that’s free of crevices where contaminants can collect. Made of 316 stainless steel, it won’t corrode from frequent washdowns with harsh cleaners and sanitizers. It complies with FDA design requirements for equipment used with food.

Often used in sieves and vibratory shakers, the openings of this filter mesh have a tight size tolerance for accurate, consistent sifting results. It handles heavier materials and higher washing pressures than our standard precision filter mesh while keeping its tight size tolerance. It also won’t fray.

Certificates with a traceable lot number are available for these products. Download certificates from ORDER HISTORY after your order ships.

Ultra-Thin Filter Fabric

With thickness similar to filter paper, this fabric provides higher flow and is more flexible than felt. It’s often used to filter water, light oil, and water soluble and synthetic coolants in metal polishing, grinding, and finishing applications. This fabric is also good for filtering air and petroleum.

Polyester Fabric—Polyester fabric is 100% polyester for greater strength than rayon/polyester.
