Nylon Mesh Filters, 160 um, 142mm, Nonsterile, 100/Pk SKU: ME17299

Nylon Mesh Filters - ME17299

Woven monofilament nylon construction provides a mechanically robust filtration surface with uniform openings that deliver consistent particle retention and accommodate both aqueous and organic solvent applications. Plain-weave monofilament construction creates uniform square openings that deliver consistent particle retention across the entire filtration surface area. Reliable surface filtration supports consistent results across demanding laboratory workflows.

Key Nylon Mesh Characteristics

• Excellent abrasion resistance protects mesh integrity during repeated handling, mounting, and backwash cleaning operations in high-throughput laboratory environments.
• Woven monofilament construction is free from chemical binders, wetting agents, and surfactants that could introduce extractable contamination into filtered samples.
• Controlled 160 µm mesh openings deliver consistent particle retention at the filter surface across the full active filtration area.
• Controlled mesh geometry provides defined particle separation at the filter surface, supporting quantitative analysis and reproducible screening operations.
• A 43% open area provides efficient fluid passage through the mesh, reducing pressure drop and supporting rapid processing of large sample volumes.

From high-volume prefiltration to targeted particle sizing, nylon mesh construction delivers the dimensional precision and reusability that keep your laboratory running efficiently. Chemical-free nylon construction gives you confidence that extractables from the filter will not interfere with your downstream analytical measurements or sample integrity. 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.
