Water Well Screens are manufactured using our unique computerised machinery, developed in-house, and in which a continuous length of profile wire of a triangular section is fusion welded onto support rods.
This 'V' shaped profile wire is wound around the support rods over the full length of the screen thus creating a continuous slot opening.
Water Well Screens offer many advantages including:
- A continuous slot opening which significantly increases the available open area, thus providing greater access to the water bearing zone (the aquifer)
- A "V" shaped profile wire which avoids clogging and ensures an uninterrupted flow.
- A uniform and efficient well development due to the continuous slot opening.

Advantages of using Profile Wire Water Well Screens :
When compared to conventional slotted pipe, Water Well Screens have superior open area due to their continuous slot openings. The benefits of which will :
Advantages of using Profile Wire Water Well Screens :
When compared to conventional slotted pipe, Water Well Screens have superior open area due to their continuous slot openings. The benefits of which will :
- Reduce energy consumption and increase water flow.
- Reduce erosion of entry surfaces and increase well life.
- Allow a uniform and efficient well development.
- Reduce significantly potential pump damage and subsequent maintenance costs.
