Anping County Xinlu Wire Mesh Products Co., Ltd. produces wire wrapped screen tubes for sand control, water filtration, and industrial separation applications. These tubes are manufactured with a precision winding process, pairing shaped wrap wires with internal support rods to form a continuous-slot filtration structure. The following details cover product characteristics, specifications, and application scenarios to support commercial procurement and project selection.
The wire wrapped screen tube adopts a structure of V-shaped (keystone) wedge wrap wire wound around circular support rods. Each wrap wire is fixed to the support rods at contact points, forming a rigid tubular screen body. The V-shaped slot creates a wider opening on the inner surface and narrower opening on the outer surface, which allows fluid to pass through while reducing the risk of particle entrapment inside the slot. This structure supports continuous fluid flow with reduced plugging frequency in solid-liquid separation scenarios.
This product is also referred to by industry participants as keystone wedge screen tube, V-shaped wire wrapped tube, sand control screen tube, and galvanized wire screen tube.
The continuous slot design provides a consistent open area across the tube surface. Slot dimensions are controlled within specified tolerances to maintain consistent particle retention performance. The V-shaped slot profile reduces contact points between solid particles and the slot edge, lowering the probability of blockage and supporting stable flow rates over extended operation periods.
The wrap wire and internal support rods form an integrated rigid structure through fixed connection points. This structure maintains dimensional stability under external pressure and fluid impact, making the tube suitable for installation in deep wells and pressurized filtration systems. The tubular design distributes stress evenly across the screen body to resist deformation during installation and operation.
Multiple material options are available to match different operating environments:
Low carbon galvanized wire (LCG) and mild steel wire: for general water treatment and dry sand control scenarios
Stainless steel grades including SS 302, SS 304, SS 304L, SS 316, and SS 316L: for scenarios involving corrosive fluids, high temperature conditions, or seawater environments Each material grade exhibits heat resistance and corrosion resistance corresponding to its chemical composition, with machinability and structural properties aligned with industry material standards.

Custom specifications are available for project-specific requirements, with diameter ranges from 1 inch to 40 inches (20-1000 mm), slot sizes from 0.05 mm to 6 mm, and maximum length up to 6 meters. End connection options include welded rings for butt welding, and male or female threaded couplings for spiral connection.
Wire wrapped screen tubes are used across water well construction, water treatment, and industrial processing systems that require solid control and fluid passage. Common application scenarios include deep well sand control paired with submersible pumps, municipal running water treatment and water softening intake systems, petroleum industry downhole and surface filtration, seawater desalination intake filtration, and organic solution recycling in chemical processing.
Standard production includes slot sizes of 0.5mm, 0.75mm, 1.0mm, and 1.5mm for common specifications. Custom slot sizes ranging from 0.05mm to 6mm can be produced based on project filtration requirements.
Stainless steel grades such as SS 316 and SS 316L are typically selected for corrosive fluid, seawater, and high-salinity operating environments. For mild corrosion scenarios, SS 304 and SS 304L are also available options.
Yes. Custom dimensions include outside diameter from 1 inch to 40 inches, length up to 6 meters, and specified slot sizes. Custom end connection types can also be produced to match existing pipeline or well casing dimensions.
Available end connections include welded bevel rings for butt welding installation, and male or female threaded couplings for threaded connection. Both types can be adapted to match standard well casing diameters and connection standards.
