Metal fibers – fiber material with a diameter range of 1 to 100 microns – exist in many forms, alloys and sizes. Metal fiber structures and products display excellent porosity, electrical, thermal, corrosion and mechanical properties.
Each of these properties makes them suitable for a wide range of specific industrial applications, including filtration, heat-resistant textiles and conductive plastics. This white paper focuses on the use of metal fibers in aircraft hydraulic fluid filtration systems.
