Axial slot wedge wire cylindrical screens
Engineered with slot openings parallel to the cylinder axis for high-flow radial filtration. Designed for high solid loading, scraper systems, and heavy-duty separation.

Axial slot cylinder specifications
Engineering parameters, dimensional tolerances, and metallurgy for axial wedge wire screen cylinders.
Continuous slots run parallel to cylinder axis for self-cleaning scrapers and scraper-type automatic backwash filters.
Every profile wire intersection is fusion welded to internal or external support ribs for collapse resistance.
Available with smooth internal surface (FITR) or smooth outer surface (FOTI) with minimal wire deviation.
Machined flange rings, threaded collars, weld rings, and sanitary tri-clamp ferrules integrated to exact specs.
