Product Spotlights
Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory – a trusted manufacturer since 1998, exporting US$5-10 million annually to global markets including North America, Europe, and Asia. Our Stainless Steel Wedge Filter for Municipal Water Treatment (0.5mm slot, 304SS) is engineered to deliver reliable solids-liquid separation with minimal clogging. Backed by decades of wire mesh expertise, this filter offers exceptional mechanical strength and long service life, making it an ideal choice for municipal water intake, wastewater treatment, and process filtration.
The V-shaped wedge wire profile ensures self-cleaning performance and high flow capacity, while the 304 stainless steel construction provides excellent corrosion resistance in potable water and mildly aggressive environments. Each filter is manufactured with precision slot tolerance to guarantee consistent filtration efficiency.

Advantages for Municipal Water Treatment
- Reliable Filtration: The 0.5mm slot effectively removes particles down to 500 microns, protecting downstream equipment like pumps and membranes.
- Self-Cleaning Design: V-shaped slots allow trapped particles to be easily dislodged during backwash, reducing manual cleaning frequency.
- Corrosion Resistance: 304SS withstands chlorinated water, humidity, and typical municipal water chemistry without rusting.
- Low Maintenance: Robust welded construction minimizes risk of wire breakage or slot deformation, ensuring long-term performance.
- Customization: We offer tailored dimensions, slot orientations, and end connections to match your existing filtration system.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: What is the difference between a wedge wire screen and a perforated plate filter?
A: Wedge wire screens have continuous V-shaped slots that minimize clogging and provide higher open area, resulting in better flow and self-cleaning compared to punched holes. They are ideal for municipal water intake where solids loading varies. -
Q: Can this filter be used for seawater or brackish water?
A: 304 stainless steel offers good resistance to fresh water but may not be suitable for high chloride environments like seawater. For such applications, we recommend 316L or duplex stainless steel – please inquire for customized solutions. -
Q: What is the typical lifespan of a 304SS wedge filter in municipal water?
A: With proper maintenance (periodic backwashing), these filters can last 10-15 years or more, depending on water quality and operating conditions. The robust weld construction ensures long-term durability. -
Q: Do you offer custom slot sizes other than 0.5mm?
A: Yes, we can produce slot sizes from 0.1mm to 10mm based on your filtration requirements. Please provide your target particle size and flow rate for a recommendation. -
Q: How is the filter installed – vertical or horizontal?
A: Both orientations are possible. Common configurations include vertical pressure vessels, horizontal troughs, or submerged intake structures. We can design end connections accordingly. -
Q: What is the maximum pressure the filter can withstand?
A: The pressure rating depends on the diameter, wall thickness, and support structure. Typically, our wedge filters can handle up to 10 bar (145 psi) for standard sizes. Higher pressure ratings are available upon request. -
Q: Do you provide certificates of material or quality?
A: Yes, we can provide a material test certificate (MTC) for 304SS and a dimensional inspection report upon request. Please note that specific certifications like ISO are not offered unless explicitly requested and agreed. -
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: For standard sizes, MOQ is 10 pcs. For customized dimensions, MOQ may be 20 pcs or negotiable based on complexity. We welcome both small trial orders and large projects.
