Continuweld® Filter Leaves
- Continuous welding
- No riveted or bolted seams
- Able to be reconditioned rather than replaced
Representing state-of-the-art pressure filter technology, the rugged construction of Continuweld® filter leaves prevents warping and maximizes service life. Unlike standard filter leaf designs, our design features continuous welding of the filter cloth to the solid bar or offset framing, keeping the filter cloth drum-tight throughout its service life.
With no riveted or bolted seams, Continuweld filter leaves eliminate pockets where bacteria and contaminate build up and also allow for easy cake removal during clean up. More importantly, they reduce maintenance downtime and allow you to exceed your production goals.

Filter Leaf Reconditioning
In addition to a long service life, our Continuweld technology offers an attractive alternative to discarding worn or damaged standard riveted filter leaves: economical, like-new reconditioning. Our experienced filter leaf craftsmen carefully remove the outer wire cloth, thoroughly clean and inspect the inner components, and continuously weld new filter cloth to the frame.
Like-new Continuweld filter leaves are leak proof, durable, and repairable – just like the original!
