Filtration Material of Hydraulic Oil Filter
Dec 18, 2025
Different filter types are usually suitable for different filter media.
Filter Media Types
Metal Mesh
Stainless Steel Woven Mesh
Woven from stainless steel wire, it offers high strength and wear resistance, suitable for high differential pressure environments.
Woven Iron Mesh
Lower cost, suitable for applications with general precision requirements.
Glass Fiber
Glass Fiber Filter Paper
Filters down to 20 microns, suitable for cleaning oils.
Synthetic Fiber
Synthetic Fiber Filter Paper
Combines durability and filtration efficiency, suitable for applications with medium precision requirements.
Composite Material
Polypropylene Composite Filter Membrane
Utilizes a multi-layer structure to enhance filtration performance, commonly used in specialized applications.
Material Selection Basis
Precision Requirements
Glass fiber is often used for applications below 20 microns, while metal mesh is preferred for applications above 25 microns.
Operating Environment
Stainless steel is required for high differential pressures or harsh operating conditions. Iron mesh or synthetic fiber can be used for general applications.
