Heavy-Duty Johnson Screen Baskets for Advanced Industrial Separation
Our Wedge Wire Baskets are engineered for superior screening and dewatering in high-demand environments. Constructed with trapezoidal-section "V" wires fusion-welded to internal support rods, these baskets offer a precise, continuous slot structure that maximizes flow and eliminates clogging.
· Custom Precision: Slot openings from 0.1 mm to 45 mm with micro-level accuracy.
· Structural Integrity: Robust SS304/316L base withstands differential pressure up to 6Kg/cm².
· Non-Clogging Design: Self-cleaning V-shape allows particles to slide off easily, ensuring stable flow.
· Versatile Shapes: Available in cylindrical, conical, and rectangular configurations.
· Supply Reliability: 1,200 tons/month production capacity for rapid global fulfillment.
The Stainless Steel Wedge Wire Screen Basket (Johnson screen basket) is a high-performance filter insert designed for solid-liquid or gas-solid separation. By fusion-welding triangular-section profile wires onto support rods, we create a rigid, rugged structure that provides a smooth surface and high mechanical strength.
Designed for precision filtration (ranging from 15μm to 800μm), these baskets are essential in harsh working conditions. Unlike traditional mesh, the wedge-shaped slots widen inwardly, allowing particles that pass the initial opening to move freely, which facilitates efficient back-washing and maintains long-term operational efficiency.

FAQ
Q: Can you manufacture wedge wire baskets for the new energy industry?
A: Yes. Our baskets are particularly rugged and rigid, designed specifically for sieving lithium battery slurries and photovoltaic silicon materials.
Q: Why is the V-shaped wire better for filtration than standard mesh?
A: The V-shaped slot only has two points of contact with particles, preventing clogging. Any particle that passes through the slot width will pass easily through the widening opening, making backwashing much more efficient.
Q: Do you offer different flow directions for the baskets?
A: Our standard flow is Out-to-In, which is ideal for most rotary drum and basket filters. However, we can customize the flow direction based on your system design.
Q: Are your baskets food-grade certified?
A: We use high-quality SS304 and SS316L materials and offer polished surface finishes that meet strict food and pharmaceutical sanitary standards.
