Reasons To Use Tungsten Mesh For High Temperature Filtration



The resistance of Tungsten Mesh to the attacks of oxidation and corrosion is widely known across the industries. Due to this characteristic, this material is also used for several filtration applications at different temperatures. The mechanical characteristics of this material are excellent in high temperature and it has the smallest coefficient of thermal expansion amidst all the other metals. With maximum service temperature going beyond three thousand degrees Celsius and supreme resistance to thermal creeping, the filtration functions exhibit perfection. The durability of this material is another unique quality for which it has attained recognition. Due to a clean mesh surface that is flat and lean as well, it is appropriately used as a filter and screening material in different kinds of applications such as electrical, mechanical, heating and vacuum equipment.

Properties of this mesh
The properties of this mesh make it ideal for different purposes especially for filtering.
    There are specific shapes, styles, and sizes of this mesh that can be suitably used for different kinds of vacuum furnaces.
    During frequent cycles of heat, the metal mesh displays high dimensional stability. Due to the large radiating area, the surface life of the mesh can be increased by reducing the surface watt loading on different heating elements.
    During its correspondence to the service temperature limit, the mesh exhibits good performance at low temperatures.
    A mild or small tear will not affect the service life of this mesh material.
    When you introduce tungsten mesh, it offers the highest furnace service temperature along with the perfect optical heat transfer for related temperature uniformity.
    The weave and design of this mesh material can handle stress better as thermal stress is hard to avoid during different heating operations.
    The large surface area of the mesh reduces the watt density thereby resulting in the better service life of the element.

Effectiveness of tungsten mesh
This mesh abandons the thermal and mechanical stress which helps in enhancing the element life. During the production of this mesh, each wire coil is woven along with the second coil for a regular network of mesh spreading over the complete width and length of the element. As the diameter of the weft and warp wires can be controlled closely, the accuracy level in the production of the mesh is at the highest level. For the production of different oven mesh designs, the pitch, height and diameter can be controlled.

The tungsten mesh' applications include the construction and engineering industries due to its strength and durability. At every high melting point it can offer protection from the hazards of fire. With features such as print repeatability and physical stability when compared with the conventional steel mesh this is a more effective material. With a variety of weaving styles, the final product that is used for filtration and screening undergoes quality control procedures at various stages.  Different industries ask for cut to size meshes that can be ordered according to the specifications. With exact filtration capacity, the positive effects that are required in the treatment of gels to ensure the highest levels of cleanliness can be achieved with the help of this mesh.
