Product Description
Our sintered metal fiber felt filters are supplied from micron-grade stainless steel fibers, typically 316L or 304, which are laid as a non-woven medium and diffusion-bonded at high temperature. This creates a three-dimensional porous structure with porosity above 80% and a uniform pore distribution. Nominal filtration ratings typically range from 1 to 200 μm, while the final rating depends on the fiber diameter, construction, and application. The cartridges are suitable for high-flow liquid, gas, viscous-fluid, and reusable industrial filtration. All filtration ratings and operating limits should be confirmed against the required working conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1:What materials are used for sintered metal fiber felt filters?
The primary material is SS316L stainless steel fiber felt. We also supply grades such as 304, 310S, and FeCrAl alloy fibers. For demanding applications, nickel-based alloys and titanium fiber felts are available to meet specific requirements for high-temperature resistance and corrosion protection.
Q2: What are the advantages compared to sintered wire mesh?
Compared to woven mesh, metal fiber felt offers a higher porosity and dirt-holding capacity, resulting in lower initial pressure drop and higher flow rates. Its gradient pore structure supports deep filtration and performs well in backflushing and ultrasonic cleaning, making it suitable for high-viscosity fluids and long-cycle operations.
Q3: What connection types are available?
Connection options are similar to those for sintered mesh filters, including threaded connections, flanges, tri-clamps, and welded interfaces. We can customize the element length, diameter, and end fittings to integrate seamlessly with your existing filtration system.
Q4: What are the typical applications?
These filters are widely used in polymer melt filtration (plastics, fibers), high-temperature gas filtration (flue gas, syngas), hydraulic pre-filtration, catalyst recovery, gas distribution plates, and burner flow equalizers.
