French Press Filter Screen (FDA 21 CFR / EU 1935/2004 food contact) is used for separating grounds from coffee in a French press plunger with a spring-edged mesh disc that seals against the carafe wall.
Also known as: french press metal mesh filter, french press filter replacement, french press screen
Diameter: Measure the carafe inner diameter; the spring rim must press lightly against the wall.
Mesh: 100-mesh is the standard; 120-mesh gives a cleaner cup at a slower plunge.
Center hole: Match the rod and nut diameter of the plunger assembly.
Materials
Standard supply is stainless steel 304; 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
Stack the cross plate, screen and spiral plate in the original order so the spring rim seals.
Unscrew the assembly every few weeks; oils trapped between plates turn rancid.
Common Mistakes
Ordering by the press capacity name instead of the measured inner diameter — brands differ.
Pressing too hard and fast, which bends the screen and lets grounds bypass.
When French Press Filter Screen Is Not the Right Choice
Not for espresso-fine grinds or for cold brew steeping over many hours, where a cartridge filter works better.
French Press Filter Screen is made to order as finished parts. Indicative pricing starts from about US$0.45 per piece for a standard size at production quantity; the final price depends on size, material, finish, tooling and order volume.

Separating grounds from coffee in a French press plunger with a spring-edged mesh disc that seals against the carafe wall.
How do I find the right French press screen size?
Measure the inside diameter of the carafe at the top; screens are made to that diameter with a spring rim.
Why does my French press coffee have grounds in it?
Usually a worn or bent screen, a gap at the spring rim or too fine a grind. A new 120-mesh screen and a coarser grind fix it.
Is a French press screen dishwasher safe?
The stainless mesh is, but take the assembly apart first so the layers dry.
