Filter Elements are an ideal solution for industrial filtration, separation or retention needs. They are manufactured with precision, delivering consistent diameters and slot openings which maintains stable filtration accuracy.
Filter Nozzles
Filter Nozzles are designed for various process designs and connections. Shown are false bottom air scour and standard threaded styles. “T” bolt, clamped and flanged nozzle connections as well as special arrangements can all be accommodated.
Vessel Internals
Hub and Header Lateral Systems are manufactured to provide uniform distribution and collection within the media bed insuring maximum utilization of the media. Lateral and Nozzle spacing is critical to assure flow equalization.

- Header Laterals
- Filter Nozzles
- Flat Beds
- Collectors
- Distributors
Flat Screen
Flat Screens are manufactured in various shapes and sizes and are suitable for the screening of solids and the filtration of liquids. Flat screens provide efficient filtration for a variety of different applications.
Resin Traps
Resin Trap Strainers are manufactured to exacting tolerances and can be designed to fit new as well as other various existing vessels. Strainers are designed for high pressure, high flow applications. The traps can be designed to capture media particles of any size.

FAQ’s
What Is Wedge Wire?
Wedge wire is a screening and filtration material made with V-shaped wire profiles that create continuous slot openings for liquid flow and solids retention. Newark Wire manufactures SaniWedge wedge wire on CNC-controlled equipment, with slot sizes available from .002″ and up. Our wedge wire products are used in filtration, separation, retention, ion exchange, activated carbon, and sand filtration processes.
What Are The Benefits Of Wedge Wire Screens?
Wedge wire screens help minimize clogging, reduce pressure drop, support easy cleaning, and provide precise slot control for reliable filtration performance. Because wedge wire is welded and built for strength, it performs well in demanding industrial environments where mesh screens may deform or clog more easily. Stainless steel wedge wire also resists corrosion and does not transfer flavor, making it useful for food, beverage, brewing, and sanitary applications.
How Do I Choose The Right Wedge Wire Slot Size For My Application?
The right wedge wire slot size depends on the particle size you need to retain, your flow requirements, and the filtration accuracy your process demands. Newark Wire manufactures SaniWedge wedge wire with slot sizes from .002″ and up, giving engineers precise control over separation and retention. It is recommended to review your process media, solids load, and cleaning method before specifying a wedge wire screen, filter element, or basket strainer.
