Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17278
Woven nylon monofilament mesh provides precise surface filtration for laboratory applications requiring controlled particle separation with uniform mesh openings and reliable mechanical strength across repeated use cycles. Nylon mesh withstands operating temperatures compatible with warm solvent filtration while providing excellent abrasion resistance during routine handling. In practice, reliable surface filtration supports consistent results across demanding laboratory workflows.
Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics
- A 49% open area provides efficient fluid passage through the mesh, reducing pressure drop and supporting rapid processing of large sample volumes.
- Naturally hydrophilic nylon surface wets immediately on contact with aqueous solutions without requiring pre-treatment with alcohol or surfactant rinses.
- Naturally hydrophilic nylon monofilament wets on contact with aqueous solutions, eliminating pre-wetting requirements and reducing sample preparation time.
- Excellent abrasion resistance protects mesh integrity during repeated handling, mounting, and backwash cleaning operations in high-throughput laboratory environments.
- Maximum operating temperature of 120°C accommodates warm solvent filtration and heated sample processing within the thermal limits of nylon.
For laboratories processing diverse sample types across aqueous and organic matrices, nylon mesh provides the chemical versatility and mechanical resilience to handle your daily workload. Reusable woven construction lets you clean and reuse the mesh across multiple filtration runs, reducing your per-sample consumable costs without sacrificing retention performance. 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.
