Breather Vents

Features & Uses

The stainless steel wire mesh screens for breather vents from TWP Inc. are ultrasonically cleaned –– a metal cleaning process involving the use of ultrasound to agitate water and other solvents. This type of round disc filter is designed for pneumatic systems, which use an air compressor to control and transmit energy.

Filter screens can also be used for:

• Air tools

• Crankcases

• Cylinders

• Gearboxes 

• Hydraulic filtration systems

• Reservoirs

• Tanks

• Valves

While allowing controlled airflow, stainless mesh discs shield tank openings and pipes from the outside environment, protecting your equipment from vacuumed air pressure, dirt, debris, and other foreign particles. Breather vent filter screens also work to reduce the sound level of exhaust and other dynamic noises caused by pneumatic components.

Our filter discs are made from micronic stainless steel mesh with high mechanical resistance. Material options include non-fraying sintered mesh and mill finish coating. Weave types include two-ply, three-ply, five-ply, PDW (plain Dutch) and TDW (twilled Dutch) Dutch weaves.
