High performance, self-cleaning screen media

Flex-Mat 3 high-performance, self-cleaning screen media is engineered to provide producers with increased throughput up to 40 percent over woven wire or polyurethane panels. Flex-Mat technology is a non-woven, self-cleaning wire screen media that can significantly increase aggregate production while it reduces downtime to free blinded or clogged screens.

This product features unmistakable lime green polyurethane strips that align to the screen box’s crown bars and hold individual wires in place as they run from hook to hook. The wires vibrate independently to separate material, virtually eliminating pegging, clogging or blinding. Properly sized for the application and correctly installed, Flex-Mat 3 will greatly increase production on screen boxes of all types, working with everything from crushed stone, sand and gravel, to recycled concrete and asphalt, as well as slag, coal and green waste.

Flex-Mat 3 also increases the production volume of spec product because it has up to 30 percent more open area than woven wire screens – allowing 30 percent more properly sized material to continuously fall through. And wear life exceeds that of traditional woven wire by up to three times because there are no cross wires with high wear spots as there is with woven wire. Flex-Mat 3 is available in a very broad range of opening sizes – 30 mesh to four inches – and awide range of application-specific wire diameters for fine tuning. Wire configurations include a diamond-shaped Flex-Mat “D” for most standard applications; wave-patterned Flex-Mat “S” for removal of fines; and triangular Flex-Mat “T” for heavy scalping or fine screening applications.
