A self-supporting medium made from multiple layers of woven wire cloth, sintered into a rigid, porous metal structure. Poroplate elements are cylindrical, surface-type filters that are perfect for back-flushing and repeated cleaning. Because Poroplate elements are self-supporting, expensive filter support cores are eliminated.
