Tungsten 5-heddle Weave Mesh

Tungsten is the most widely used of the refractory metals. In wire form, it is essential for the production of lighting products such as wire filament, and other goods where its high temperature properties are of use. Among its properties are a melting point of 3410ºC, a low coefficient of thermal expansion and low vapor pressure at elevated temperatures, along with good electrical and thermal conductivity.

Five Heddle Weave offers high flow rates and is suitable for high mechanical loads, featuring a lightly structured mesh surface. Five-heddle woven meshes are popular in applications including pressure and vacuum filters as well as filter candles.

Typical Use of Tungsten 5-heddle Weave Mesh:
Industrial woven wire cloth is used in filtration of petroleum chemical industries, in the form of filter ribbons or filter elements.
