A Tri-clamp mesh gasket screen is a sanitary filtration component made from woven or perforated stainless steel mesh (typically 304 or 316L) and integrated into a Tri-Clamp end connection. It is designed for quick installation and removal in hygienic piping systems, providing efficient and reliable particle filtration for fluid processing applications. Sock-style screens are also available.
