Precision Engineered Wire Wrapped Screen with Uniform Slot Openings and High Axial Strength for Sand Control in Oil Gas and Water Wells

Product Introduction

Precision wire-wrapped screens are manufactured by winding V-shaped profile wires onto longitudinal support rods under precisely controlled pitch and tension, and securing them with continuous resistance welding. The result is a screen with highly uniform slot openings along its full length. Every screen is custom-built to customer requirements, providing reliable sand control and stable filtration for oil, gas, and water wells.

Key Features

• Uniform slot openings: Slot width is precisely controlled and verified during winding, ensuring consistent openings along the entire screen.

• V-shaped wedge-wire profile: Self-cleaning geometry that resists plugging and clogging.

• Continuous resistance welding: Creates a one-piece, rigid structure with high axial and radial strength.

• High open area: Supports high flow rates with low pressure drop.

• Custom-built to specification: Diameter, slot size, length, and material according to customer drawings or specifications.

Working Principle

The screen uses the bridging principle of wedge-wire slots. Sand grains larger than the slot opening are retained on the outer surface, while fine particles pass through without accumulating. Because the V-shaped slot narrows toward the inside, trapped particles can be washed out during backflushing, keeping the screen permeable throughout a long service life.

Production Process

Profile wires are wound around longitudinal support rods with precisely controlled pitch and tension, then secured by continuous resistance welding at every contact point. After welding, each screen undergoes slot-width measurement, weld-integrity inspection, and dimensional verification. Only screens that pass all checks are packed and shipped.

FAQ & Service

Q: Can slot openings as small as 0.02 mm be produced?
A: Yes. We can manufacture screens with slot openings down to 0.02 mm, subject to review of the screen diameter, wire profile, material, and application requirements.

Q: Are samples or inspection reports available?
A: Yes. Samples, material certificates, and quality control reports are available on request.

We provide OEM/ODM production, responsive technical support, and on-time delivery with export-ready packaging.
