rigid mesh tubes for filtration

 Advantages
ladder-proof
completely recyclable
non-toxic
rust-proof
certified products
 

TENAX rigid mesh tubes for filtration are manufactured in High density polyethylene (FT/H) or Polypropylene (FT/P).

They are resistant to chemical and atmospheric agents and they are suitable for either disposal or incineration without the need to separate the materials that comprise the cartridge. For products destined for use in the food industry, TENAX uses exclusive polymers and additives that comply with current regulations. Relevant certification can be provided on request. Other additives can be used to modify colors or UV-resistance.

TENAX rigid mesh tubes can be manufactured so to have a certain pitch/hole ratio, called "open area", in order to regulate the flow, optimizing the system efficiency. As all the other products, TENAX tubes are submitted to very strict controls, according to ISO 9001:2000 Quality System Assurance.
