Wedge wire is a welded stainless steel construction mainly used for filtration, separation, and retention of media.
YUB0 manufactures high-quality wedge wire candle filters and Johnson filter elements for customers, and also offers design services, providing customized solutions tailored to specific operational conditions.
What is Wedge Wire?
Wedge wire is a robust, welded stainless steel structure commonly used for filtration, separation, and media retention. It features surface profiles, typically V-shaped wires, that are resistance-welded onto longitudinal support rods. This precise design ensures accurate slot openings, allowing filtrates to flow efficiently while effectively trapping solids.
The Johnson candle filter elements are manufactured with wedge wire technology, engineered to withstand high differential pressures while maintaining consistent filtration performance. Their unique slot construction provides accurate particle retention, high mechanical strength, and excellent corrosion resistance.
Exceptional Durability: Manufactured from high-grade wedge wire with outstanding chemical stability and corrosion resistance.
Accurate Slot Openings: The spacing between surface profiles is carefully calibrated to meet exact filtration requirements.
Clog-Resistant Design: The V-shaped wire structure ensures smooth flow and minimizes clogging, ideal for continuous and demanding applications.
Versatile Applications: These candle filter elements are widely used for solid-liquid separation, gas-liquid filtration, and fine particle retention in both batch and continuous processes.
The wedge wire candle filters, Johnson filter elements are used in:
• Resin separation in ion exchange systems.
• Catalyst recovery in refining and petrochemical plants.
• Fine particle removal in pharmaceuticals and specialty chemicals.
• Industrial liquid filtration in beverages, edible oils, and dairy.
• Gas-liquid separation in power and energy systems.
Whether for industrial liquid filtration, solid-liquid separation, or catalyst recovery, the Wedge Wire Candle Filter and the Johnson Filter Element offer unmatched reliability and performance. With stainless steel construction, vee wire technology, and proven durability, these filter elements are an ideal choice for industries that demand efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective filtration and separation solutions.
Why Choose Wedge Wire and Johnson Screen Technology?
Compared with traditional mesh or cartridge filters, wedge wire filter elements deliver:
• Greater mechanical strength - resists collapse under pressure.
• Precise slot openings - ensuring consistent particle size control.
• Easy cleaning and regeneration - extending operational uptime.
• Custom configurations - available as slotted candle filters, multi-candle housings, or special alloys for corrosive media.

Flowing Direction
According to the position and direction of surface profiles and support profiles, the wedge wire screen filter tube can be divided into four types. Radial internal type. The filtering principle flows in to out. The support profile is radial. Radial external type. The filtering principle is flowing out to in. It is the standard type. The support profile is also radial. Axial internal type. The filtering principle flows in to out. And the support profile is axial. Axial external type. The filtering principle is flowing out to in. And the support profile is axial.
