Pipe Base Screen consists of a wire-wrapped jacket and a perforated pipe. Keystone shaped wire are helically wrapped around the vertical ribs and each point of contact is welded. This special shaped wire is designed for decreasing the chances of sand plugging the screen, self-cleaning action and reducing flow friction. The diameter and number of support rods depends on the strength and size the screen.
