FLEX-MAT tensioned screen media and FLEX-MAT modular screen media feature this company’s unique lime-green polyurethane strips bonded to high-performance screen wire. FLEX-MAT tensioned panels are available with OPTIMUMWIRE or stainless-steel wire, while FLEX-MAT Modular can be configured with OPTIMUMWIRE, OPTIMUMWIRE PLUS or stainless-steel wire. Using high-vibration technology, FLEX-MAT helps reduce blinding and pegging while improving throughput and efficiency. The company’s signature screen media can be customized with different wire types, panel styles and attachment systems to meet specific application requirements. OPTIMUMWIRE — said to be the industry’s longest-lasting wire — is made using a patented process, heightening the wire’s molecular structure to improve hardness and tensile strength while increasing resistance to breakage. For harsh screening environments, the manufacturer also offers OPTIMUMWIRE PLUS — available exclusively in modular screen media — which is ideal for more abrasive materials like granite and basalt. — MAJOR Wire Industries, Ltd., a Haver & Boecker Brand, Candiac, Queb., Canada
