Product Introduction

The wire mesh filter basket is a critical component in numerous industrial processes, serving as a robust and reliable medium for filtration, draining, and containment. Typically fabricated from woven or welded wire mesh, these baskets are engineered to withstand rigorous conditions while maintaining precise filtration capabilities. At our manufacturing facility, we produce custom stainless steel wire mesh baskets for industries ranging from food processing to medical sterilization, providing equipment that ensures operational efficiency and product integrity.

Core Advantages

Our industrial baskets are designed with several key benefits:

• Stainless steel corrosion resistance – Resists rust and chemical attack, extending service life in harsh environments.
• High temperature resistance – Suitable for autoclaving, baking, and hot cleaning cycles.
• Strong welded structure – Fabricated with precision welding to handle heavy loads without deformation.
• Excellent drainage and ventilation – Open mesh maximizes liquid flow and air circulation for efficient drying and cleaning.
• Easy cleaning and maintenance – Smooth surfaces and open design simplify sanitation, reducing downtime.
• Long service life – Robust materials and construction ensure years of dependable use.

Material Selection

Choosing the right stainless steel grade is essential for performance and cost-effectiveness. We offer:

• SUS 201 – Economical option for mild environments with less corrosive exposure.
• SUS 304 – The most common grade for general industrial use, offering balanced corrosion resistance and strength.
• SUS 316 – Contains molybdenum for superior resistance to chlorides and acidic media, ideal for marine and chemical processing.

Our engineers help you select the appropriate material based on your operating conditions, including temperature, chemicals, and cleaning agents.

Structure and Manufacturing Process

Every basket we produce undergoes a meticulous fabrication process:

• Wire mesh structure – We use either woven or welded mesh, depending on required strength and filtration precision.
• Welding process – Precision TIG welding ensures seamless joints without weak points.
• Reinforced edges – Additional wire or metal strips are attached to prevent deformation under stress.
• Handle design – Optional handles in various styles (V-shape, straight, or hinged) facilitate safe lifting and transport.
• Lid design – Custom lids are available for dust protection or pressurized processes.
• Surface treatment – Electropolishing or passivation enhances cleanliness and corrosion resistance.
• Quality inspection – Each basket is checked for dimensional accuracy, weld integrity, and surface finish.

Purchasing Guide

When selecting a stainless steel wire mesh basket, consider these factors:

How to select the right stainless steel basket? Assess your process: temperature, chemicals, and mechanical stress. For high corrosion, use 316; for general use, 304 is often a balance of cost and performance.

How to choose mesh size? The mesh opening determines filtration efficiency. For finer filtration, use a smaller opening; for maximum drainage, a larger opening is preferred. We recommend testing with your actual product.

Which stainless steel grade is suitable for industrial cleaning? For ultrasonic cleaning with alkaline solutions, 304 is usually adequate. If you use strong acids or chlorides, 316 is safer to avoid pitting.

What factors affect service life? Exposure to harsh chemicals, high temperatures, and abrasive loads reduce lifespan. Selecting the correct alloy and reinforcing high-stress areas enhances durability.
