Compass Wire Offers Custom Edge Screens for High-Demand Use

Compass Wire Cloth is highlighting its custom-fabricated edge screens, which are designed for demanding screening environments. They are engineered to meet exact original equipment manufacturer (OEM) specifications across a wide range of industries.

Each screen is constructed using high-quality materials, including stainless steel, carbon steel, and synthetic mesh options such as polyester and nylon. The edge types are equally diverse, ranging from bonded and polyester to high-temperature Nomex®, vinyl, and heavy-duty metal edges. This broad material selection allows Compass Wire Cloth to tailor screens to the specific operational and environmental requirements of industries such as mining, aggregate, plastics, and more.

The bonded edge, made of cotton webbing and heat-activated adhesive, offers an economical solution with operating temperatures up to 300°F, according to the manufacturer. For extreme heat, Nomex® edges withstand temperatures up to 600°F, making them ideal for high-temperature material handling. Polyester edges offer a permanent bond to synthetic meshes without sewing, improving edge integrity and reducing failure points.
