Sinterflo® F Sintered Metal Fibre

Manufactured from randomly laid metal fibres, sinter-bonded to form a uniform high porosity filter medium, Sinterflo^® F demonstrates a significantly low pressure drop, high permeability and excellent dirt holding capacity. Moreover, sintered metal fibre may be pleated to increase the available filtration area of a filter element, thereby further increasing dirt holding capacity and so minimising maintenance and maximising on-stream processing.

With the feasibility to formulate metal fibres to meet specific application requirements combined with inherent durability, sintered metal fibre filters can be cleaned in-situ without interrupting process flow thereby providing the ultimate in process economics by reducing downtime to a minimum. Available alloys include 316L stainless steel, Inconel^®, Hastelloy^® and Monel^®. A list of grades and specifications are available on request.
