Pure Copper Temporary Cone & Basket Strainers

Pure Copper Temporary Cone & Basket Strainers reference image

For temporary cone & basket strainers in Pure Copper, the controlling selection factors are the media being filtered, the cleaning regime and the service temperature. The grade data for Pure Copper is summarized below together with every specification supplied.

Why Choose Pure Copper for Temporary Cone & Basket Strainers

The EMI/RFI shielding and Faraday-cage mesh material. For temporary cone & basket strainers, this matters when good atmospheric resistance with a stable patina; outstanding conductivity is the controlling requirement.

Alloy Properties

Grade designationC11000
Magnetic responseNon-magnetic
Service temperatureapprox. +200 °C
Corrosion characteristicGood atmospheric resistance with a stable patina; outstanding conductivity

Cleaning & Compatibility

Clean copper-alloy mesh with mild detergent or dilute citric acid; avoid ammonia-based cleaners entirely. In contact with more noble metals in wet service the copper alloy becomes the sacrificial partner — isolate or accept the loss rate.

Comparable Alloys

Within the copper family: brass for economy and appearance, phosphor bronze for fatigue strength and marine air, pure copper where conductivity (EMI shielding) is the point. For structural filtration duties, stainless 304/316 is the usual alternative.

Frequently Asked Questions

What temperature can Pure Copper temporary cone & basket strainers run at?

The practical continuous service limit is approx. +200 °C. Above it, oxidation scales the wire surface and the aperture drifts; for hotter duty move up the alloy ladder (Inconel, and sintered constructions for mechanical stability).

When is Pure Copper worth the premium over stainless?

Specify Pure Copper when the datasheet chemistry rules stainless out — good atmospheric resistance with a stable patina; outstanding conductivity. For everything else, 316L is usually the economic choice.

Can Pure Copper temporary cone & basket strainers be welded into frames?

Yes — spot, TIG and plasma welding are standard for framing and edging. Use matching filler, keep heat input low to protect the fine wires, and re-passivate stainless after fabrication.

Is Pure Copper temporary cone & basket strainers magnetic?

Pure Copper temporary cone & basket strainers is non-magnetic. Note that heavy cold-working during weaving can make austenitic stainless slightly magnetic at the wire surface.
