Rigid Polypropylene Tubes
One of the main applications for plastic netting (in rigid tube form) is for center core support in filter cartridges. Extruded cores are common in all types of cartridge filtration, whether pleated, wound or depth filter elements. The ready availability of a wide range of product designs, and the minimal tooling costs associated with custom designs, make extruded cores a favorite for filter design engineers.

Rigid tubes can be used as an outer containment sleeve for cartridge filters as well. The tubes protect filter media from damage during handling and cleaning.

Custom Fabricated Tubes
Industrial Netting has the unique capability to form tubes from flat or roll form netting to expand your application base for containment and protection. In a proprietary process, netting is sonic welded or heat sealed to form a broad range of tube possibilities - from fine meshes to heavier, rigid and more open forms. A wide range of diameters, weights and mesh sizes are available from a variety of resin bases within this "forming" process.

In addition, we have the capability to form nonwoven fabrics as tubing overwraps using this same process.
