Hook Screen
|
Wire Cloth Screen Edge Hook Clamping Strips |
Screens for classifying, sizing, straining, sieving, are typically secured to a vibrating deck by clamping rails that apply tension across the screening surface.
The tension is applied through edge treatments on the woven wire cloth screen panel commonly referred to as "hooks" , "hook strips" or "hooking strips".
Proper screen tension is crucial for effective screening and longer screen life.Banded edges prevent flattening of hook edges and eliminate mesh pull-out on fine wire mesh or high tension screens.
