SinterPore® Multi Layered Sintered (MLS) Wire Cloths
SinterPore® Multi-Layered Sintered (MLS) media is constructed of multiple layers of stainless wire mesh and is designed for precise, controlled porosity, uniform pore sizes, and distributions. SinterPore® MLS laminates are permanently bonded under precise diffusion bonding (metal sintering) conditions yielding robust monolithic materials used in a wide variety of engineering applications ranging from industrial filtration to aerospace transpiration cooling.
Standard products and most common uses include:
- Standard 2- and 3-layer SinterPore® fluidizing laminates with customer-specific permeability flow rates that are often used in bulk powder handling.
- Standard 5-layer SinterPore® filter plates are used for pharmaceutical, polymer, and liquid and gas filtration.
Applications:
- Oil and Gas
- Pharmaceutical
- Aerospace
- Polymer
- Chemical Process
- Bulk Powder Handling (fluidization)
- Industrial Filtration
Features and Benefits:
- Heat and wear resistance
- Cleanability and reusability
- Fixed Pore Geometry
- Robust Non-Compressible Media
Specifications:
- Standard Sheet Sizes: 18”x48”, 24”x48”. Custom sizes available upon request. Maximum laminate size without welding is 24”x60” (larger sheets available with welds, maximum panel width with welds 120”).
- Standard Alloys: 304, 304L, 316, 316L, Alloy20 (also available in Inconel 600 and 625, Monel, and Hastalloy upon request).
