How to Specify Formed Etched Cup Filter

  • Size: 6–20 mm diameter cups with depth to suit the bore.
  • Holes: 0.08–0.15 mm etched holes, laid out so forming does not distort them.
  • Material: SS304 or SS316L foil, 0.05–0.1 mm.

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

  • Press-fit with a matching tool so the cup wall is not crushed.
  • Inspect a sample of cups for hole distortion after forming.

Common Mistakes

  • Placing holes in the bend zone, where forming stretches them.
  • Press-fitting by hand, which buckles the cup.

When Formed Etched Cup Filter Is Not the Right Choice

Not for high dirt loads; a larger cartridge or basket gives more area.
