SolideWEAVE - Wire Mesh - Filter Media

As a supplier for many different industries and applications, GKD produces a wide variety of woven wire meshes. Our production program for SQUARE MESH ranges in aperture sizes from 0.025 mm to 14 mm. And in addition to our standard program, which is always readily available from stock, we also run lots of special productions for customer-specific applications.

Requirements in the area of fine filtration are met by using MICRONIC MESHES with filter grades ranging from nom. 1 µm upwards.
Also for that range of filtermedia, stock productions and customer specific productions are combined.

PZ-Microdur and KPZ-Microdur cloths are the main focus in wire mesh production for applications in the field of precoat-filtration.
Here, production is geared to maintaining large stocks of market standards in the materials AISI 316L and 904L (1.4404 and 1.4539) to ensure shortest response times for spare part requirements.

And the PLAIN and TWILLED DUTCH WEAVES used in this field, as well as the corresponding support meshes, are also a part of our needs-oriented warehousing program.

For other applications, TELA cloth (5-heddle atlas weave) and MULTIPLEX WEAVES are produced.

Depending on the application, the production width is up to 3 m. For filtration of high viscous media, GKD produces Optimized Plain Dutch Weave filtermedia with filter grades ranging from 10 µm up to 80 µm.

In many cases this is supplied from rolls or strips ready for final fabrication by filter manufacturers in final production steps.
Our newest development in the woven wire mesh sector is the innovative filter composite YMAX®.

This filament-wire connection made of stainless steel offers two advantages, high porosity with absolute homogeneous pore structure and high mechanical stability. Retention rates are ranging from 3 µm up to 100 µm. High mechanical strength coupled with flexibility does allow highly efficient surface and depth filtration with a single filter media.
