Stainless steel filter cylinders and tubes — also known as filter tubes, mesh cylinders, cylindrical strainers, screen sleeves or perforated filter tubes — are built for liquid and gas filtration in industrial systems. Options include single-layer and double-layer constructions, flanged or closed-bottom designs, and perforated or mesh-wrapped bodies. Cylindrical and conical shapes are both available, with precise, leak-free welds in 304 / 316L stainless steel.
