W&f metal wires offers a wide range of industrial wire cloth from the range of gkd-gebr kufferath gmbh & co, kg, germany. The gkd business unit, filtration and separation, offers a wide range of filter media for solid/liquid filtration for fine filtration of micronic meshes up to 1 micron. For use in drum filters, standard filter meshes in a width of up to 8.1 m are available. To optimise these drum filter systems, gkd produces a wide range of 5 heddle mesh [tela mesh] with asymmetrical surfaces, which support build-up and release of filter cake by providing very high flow rates. The production focus is on the meshes for pre- coat filtration application in the food and chemical industries [niagara filters]. Such meshes are available from stock in typical widths and also in higher grade alloys like ss 904 l, to withstand high mechanical loads in precoat filter systems, even as centrifuges of vertical leaf filters ss screen cloth with appertures from 25 micron to 14 mm are available.
