Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer since 1998, is proud to introduce our Sintered Copper Powder Filter Element – a high-performance solution specifically engineered for fluid filtration in the oil and gas industry. With an annual export value exceeding US$5 million and serving markets across North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, our commitment to quality and precision has made us a preferred partner for global clients. This filter element is designed to deliver exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and consistent filtration efficiency, ensuring your critical processes run smoothly.
Our sintered copper powder filter elements are manufactured using advanced powder metallurgy technology, which creates a uniform porous structure with excellent mechanical strength. The copper material offers natural resistance to many corrosive fluids, high thermal conductivity, and the ability to withstand extreme operating conditions. Whether you are separating solids from crude oil, removing particulates from natural gas condensate, or polishing process water, this filter element provides reliable performance with minimal pressure drop.
The element is available in a wide range of pore sizes (5–100 microns), shapes, and connection types, making it adaptable to various filtration housings and system designs. Our rigorous quality control ensures each filter element meets strict dimensional tolerances and performance standards, backed by decades of manufacturing expertise.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material Composition: 100% sintered copper powder – no binders or additives. High purity (≥99.5% Cu) ensures consistent performance and chemical compatibility.
- Uniform Pore Structure: The sintering process creates a three-dimensional network of interconnected pores, providing high dirt-holding capacity and low resistance to flow.
- High Temperature & Pressure Tolerance: Operates reliably up to 600°C (1112°F) and differential pressure up to 50 bar (725 psi), suitable for severe service conditions.
- Corrosion Resistance: Copper exhibits excellent resistance to many hydrocarbons, saline solutions, and mild acids, making it ideal for oil and gas environments.
- Easy Cleaning & Reusability: The porous metal structure can be backwashed, ultrasonically cleaned, or chemically regenerated, significantly extending service life and reducing replacement costs.
- Customizable Dimensions: Available in standard cartridge lengths (10, 20, 30 inches) as well as custom diameters, lengths, and end fittings to match existing systems.
- Anti-Corrosion Coating Option: For highly aggressive fluids, an optional coating (e.g., PTFE or epoxy) can be applied to further enhance chemical resistance.

Applications in Oil & Gas Industry
- Upstream: Filtration of injection water, produced water, and crude oil at wellhead and gathering stations.
- Midstream: Solid removal from natural gas pipelines, condensate stabilization, and liquid hydrocarbon processing.
- Downstream: Catalyst recovery, process fluid polishing, and final filtration in refineries and petrochemical plants.
- LNG & Gas Processing: Pre-filtration for membrane systems, amine units, and glycol dehydration units.
Why Choose Our Sintered Copper Powder Filter Element?
- Cost-Effective Longevity: Reusable design reduces total cost of ownership compared to disposable filters. Typical lifespan is 3–5 times longer than non-sintered media.
- Low Pressure Drop: The open pore structure minimizes energy consumption in pumping systems.
- High Mechanical Strength: Withstands extreme pressure surges and thermal shocks without deformation.
- Environmental Compliance: Copper is fully recyclable, and the filter element can be returned for metal recovery at end of life.
- Global Logistics Support: Products are shipped from ports in Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Foshan, ensuring fast delivery to all major markets.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is the typical lifespan of a sintered copper powder filter element in oil and gas applications?
A: With proper cleaning and maintenance, our elements can last 3 to 5 years or more, depending on the fluid characteristics and operating conditions. The reusable design significantly reduces replacement frequency compared to disposable filters.
Q2: Can the filter element be cleaned back in the field?
A: Yes. The element can be cleaned by backwashing with a compatible solvent or water, or by ultrasonic cleaning. Chemical cleaning is also possible for stubborn deposits. We provide cleaning guidelines upon request.
Q3: What pore sizes are available for hydrocarbon filtration?
A: Standard pore sizes range from 5 μm to 100 μm. We can also produce custom pore sizes between 0.5 μm and 200 μm for special requirements. The optimal choice depends on the particle size you need to remove.
Q4: Is the copper material compatible with H2S or sour gas environments?
A: Copper has limited resistance to hydrogen sulfide. For sour gas applications, we recommend evaluating the specific conditions. An optional anti-corrosion coating (e.g., PTFE) can be applied to enhance resistance. Please consult our technical team for a compatibility assessment.
Q5: Do you provide custom dimensions and end connections?
A: Absolutely. We can manufacture filter elements in custom lengths, diameters, and wall thicknesses. End connections include NPT, BSP, flanges (ANSI, DIN, JIS), tri-clamp, and sanitary fittings. Just provide your housing specifications.
Q6: What is the maximum operating temperature for this filter element?
A: The standard element can operate continuously at temperatures up to 600°C (1112°F) in non-oxidizing atmospheres. For high-temperature oxidation resistance, we can apply a protective coating.
Q7: How do I determine the correct filter size for my system?
A: You need to know flow rate, viscosity, allowable pressure drop, and particle size to be removed. Our engineering team can help you calculate the required filtration area. Contact us with your process parameters for a recommendation.
Q8: Do you offer sample testing or trial orders?
A: Yes. We can provide samples for evaluation. For larger quantities, we can produce a trial batch to confirm performance in your specific application. Our minimum order quantity is flexible to accommodate new customers.
