Nylon Mesh Filters, 160 um, 13mm, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: ME17191

Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17191

Surface filtration through precision-woven nylon monofilament delivers defined particle capture at the mesh plane, enabling efficient separation of macroparticles while preserving high flow rates for rapid processing. Controlled mesh geometry provides defined particle separation at the filter surface, supporting quantitative analysis and reproducible screening operations. Because of this, naturally hydrophilic nylon wets immediately for rapid processing without pre-treatment delays.

Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics

• Woven nylon resists common organic solvents and alkaline solutions while maintaining dimensional stability through repeated filtration and cleaning cycles.
• Nylon mesh withstands operating temperatures compatible with warm solvent filtration while providing excellent abrasion resistance during routine handling.
• Broad chemical compatibility accommodates filtration of organic solvents, alcohols, and alkaline solutions commonly encountered in pharmaceutical and industrial laboratories.
• A 43% open area provides efficient fluid passage through the mesh, reducing pressure drop and supporting rapid processing of large sample volumes.
• Woven monofilament construction is free from chemical binders, wetting agents, and surfactants that could introduce extractable contamination into filtered samples.

When your application calls for defined particle separation with high throughput, nylon mesh offers the combination of precise openings and robust construction that supports reliable results. Broad solvent compatibility means you can move between aqueous buffers and organic solvents without switching filter types, simplifying your inventory and procurement. Take control of your sample preparation variables and ensure that your data reflects the true nature of your work, rather than the quality of your consumables.

• Cascade Filtration - Provides coarse first-stage separation in multi-step filtration trains that progressively clarify sample solutions.
• Paint Filtration - Screens coating formulations to remove agglomerates and oversized particles before application or quality testing.
• Automotive Cleanliness - Collects and classifies contaminant particles from component wash fluids per industry cleanliness standards.
• Particle Classification - Separates suspended particles by size through defined mesh openings for quantitative distribution analysis.
• Tissue Processing - Disperses dissociated tissue through calibrated mesh to produce single-cell suspensions for biological assays.
• Industrial Screening - Removes oversized particles from process fluids and chemical solutions to protect equipment and product quality.
