How to Specify Hair Dryer Air Inlet Filter Mesh

  • Diameter & frame: Match the rear housing and the twist or snap fixing.
  • Hole size: 0.10–0.15 mm keeps hair out of high-speed motors.
  • Open area: At least 30 % so airflow and motor cooling are not choked.

Materials

Standard supply is stainless steel 304, stainless steel 316/316L; the material column in the table and the drawing options show the exact grade for each size. Other alloys and finishes can be quoted to your drawing.

Fitting & Care

  • Twist the filter off and brush lint away weekly.
  • Make sure it is dry before refitting.

Common Mistakes

  • Letting the filter clog — the dryer overheats and trips its thermal cut-out.
  • Running the dryer without the filter, which draws hair into the motor.

When Hair Dryer Air Inlet Filter Mesh Is Not the Right Choice

Not a HEPA air filter and does not clean the room air.
