Sintered porous tubes in 316L stainless steel or pure titanium. Open-ended tube format for installation in custom housings, reactors, or sparger assemblies.
Wall thickness 2–10 mm; outer diameter φ14–200 mm; length 100–1200 mm as a single-piece tube without joins. End configurations include plain cut (for weld-in or compression-fit installation), flanged, or threaded ends for direct pipe connection. Welded end caps for use as complete cartridge elements are also available, and double-open (open at both ends) configurations allow bidirectional flow for backpulse or reverse-flush cleaning.
Titanium tubes are specified for corrosive media (HCl, H₂SO₄, seawater, wet chlorine) where SS tubes are unsuitable — including chlor-alkali secondary brine polishing and chlorine gas demisting at diameters up to φ200 mm, and industrial circulating water filtration down to 0.22 µm with ozone-compatible cleaning cycles. SS tubes cover standard industrial filtration, sparging, and diffusion duties. Both materials carry bubble-point test certification per element.
Supplied without end caps — plain cut, flanged, or threaded ends for direct integration into customer-designed housings and assemblies.
Non-standard OD, wall thickness, length, and end-cap geometry all available. Tolerances to ±0.1 mm on critical dimensions.
Identical pore size range (0.22–100 µm) in both materials. Select SS for standard industrial duty; Ti for acid, chloride, or oxidising environments.
Rigid sintered structure withstands reverse-flow cleaning, acid soak, and ultrasonic cleaning without structural change. Double-open tubes allow bidirectional backpulse for thorough cleaning.
Open at both ends for bidirectional flow — maximises filtration area utilisation and enables reverse-flow or back-pulse cleaning from either direction.
Chemical composition data for raw material and dimensional inspection records for finished products available on request.
Distribute fine ozone bubbles into water treatment reactors. Ti tubes used where ozone-resistant material is required; spherical/dome-shaped aeration heads with a 1/2" NPT connection are also available for fine-bubble aeration in recirculating aquaculture systems.
φ20–180 mm · 5–50 µm · Ti or SSWeld-in porous tube assemblies for in-situ filtration inside chemical reactors — removes catalyst particles or product crystals from reaction mixture.
2–50 µm · High-alloy optionsThreaded or flanged tube elements for direct pipe installation in liquid and gas process lines.
5–100 µm · SS or TiPorous tubes for uniform gas injection into liquid columns in absorption, stripping, and aeration systems.
5–50 µm · Low ΔP · Custom ODTi porous tubes for flow field and distribution elements in PEM electrolyzer modules.
1–10 µm · Pure Ti · CustomTi tubes up to φ200 mm for secondary brine polishing and wet chlorine gas demisting ahead of membrane cells and compressors — titanium's passive oxide layer resists the chlorine and hypochlorite environment.
φ up to 200 mm · Ti · 30 µmSterile gas sparging into bioreactors and fermenters. Ti or 316L SS for cleanable pharmaceutical service.
5–20 µmTi tubes down to 0.22 µm for suspended solids removal in circulating water systems, including ozone-disinfected loops. Backwash at 3–5 bar restores flow without media replacement.
0.22 µm · Ti · Ozone-compatibleProvide OD, wall thickness, length, end configuration, and pore size. We'll quote standard or custom dimensions with typical lead time.
