Porous 89/11 bronze filters
AMES offers its customers the ability to manufacture porous bronze filters and components with specific shapes. Each of these special applications requires a specific mould to obtain the desired geometry and pore size. The mould is designed and built entirely in AMES’ dedicated tooling workshop.

- Intermediate grades can be manufactured on demand.
- Measured with a porometer.
- Equivalent to the bubble point, determined according to the ISO 4003:1977
standard at a continuous flow of 5 ml/min. - Determined by a single pass at 0.01 m/s with a 3-mm-thick sample.
- Measured according to the ISO 4022:2018 standard under the following conditions: pressure slope 250 s/bar, maximum pressure difference 1.5 bar, maximum flow 3.3 l/s.
