1.Ultra-High Surface Area
Spiral wire mesh creates turbulent flow, achieving 10x higher mass transfer vs. solid rings.
Zero nesting or wall channeling in columns ≥15mm ID.
2.Corrosion Resistance
316L SS: General lab use (solvents, weak acids)
Titanium: HCl/HBr distillation (<200°C)
Inconel®: High-temperature steam stripping
3.Precision Manufacturing
Laser-cut wires with electropolishing (Ra ≤ 0.1μm) prevent fouling.
Consistent geometry: ±0.05mm dimensional tolerance.
