High Silica Glass filtration fabric.
Silica mesh/nettings are made from high SiO2 -content glass fiber yarns with a
service temperature of up to 1832°F, woven in a ‘Leno’ or ‘Mock Leno’ style
to achieve the characteristic openness of the mesh.
Our silica mesh holes range from 1/25" to <1/8" mm.
Additional heat treatments are frequently applied to mitigate shrinkage of the silica mesh during the application.
Key properties are exceptional heat resistance, ability to maintain its integrity at temperatures of up to 1,832°F; and this over prolonged periods.
Our filtration fabrics are Non-toxic, with low thermal conductivity and inertness to most chemicals. They are resistant to organic and mineral acids (excluding hydrofluoric and phosphoric), weak alkalis, water and high-pressure steam.
Primary application is for filtering molten, non-ferrous metals in foundries as well as gas filtration.
Various treatments available:
- Pre-shrunk
- Pre-shrunk with reinforcement sizing
Standard Hole Sizes:
- 1.25"
- 1/16"
- 1/12"
Standard roll lengths:
50 linyd
APPLICATONS:
The main two applications are for filtration of non-ferrous metals in foundries and gas filtration.
ADDITIONAL AVAILABLE FEATURES:
- Heat treatment (pre-shrinking 0 -8%
- Weave lock (for easy cutting & handling)
- Special Sizing based finish for tensile strength improvement
SHRINKAGE:
- Non-heat-treated materials up <12%
- Heat-treated materials, depending on final the application <8%
