2026-07-02

Stainless steel shaped profile wire, also known as wedge wire or V-shaped wire, is the core raw material for manufacturing various screen pipes and screen panels. Common cross-section shapes include triangular, trapezoidal and T-shaped, with triangular (V-shaped) being the most widely applied. Compared with round wire, shaped profile wire offers unique filtration advantages: the V-shaped cross-section creates narrow-outer and wide-inner slot geometry that prevents particle embedding and provides natural self-cleaning characteristics.

1. Applications in Screening Equipment

Stainless steel shaped profile wire is widely used in Johnson screen pipes, arc screens, slotted screen panels, vibrating screen meshes and various solid-liquid separation equipment. Applications include oil sand control, mine tailings classification and recovery, water treatment suspended solids interception, and food chemical precision filtration.

2. Production Capacity

Innovet (Taizhou) New Materials Co., Ltd. operates complete shaped wire drawing production lines, manufacturing full series stainless steel shaped profile wire from 0.5mm to 12mm diameter with daily capacity exceeding 50 tons. The company also provides finished screen pipe products welded from shaped wire, delivering integrated solutions from raw materials to finished products.
