TR Solid Control Screen Wedge: Premium Fastening Solution for High-Volume Shaker Operations
Screen wedges are essential fastening components used in vibrating
screening equipment—including drilling fluid shakers and industrial
mineral screens. They provide rapid screen tensioning and secure
fixation, ensuring the screen remains taut and accurately
positioned during high-speed vibration. This enhances both
screening efficiency and the service life of the screen panel.
Key Advantages
✅ Efficient Tensioning:
Features a tapered design for quick installation and locking, with
adjustable tension capability to accommodate various screen
thicknesses.
✅ Vibration & Wear Resistance:
Manufactured from durable materials such as galvanized steel or
polyurethane, offering excellent resistance to high-frequency
vibration, abrasion, and drilling fluid corrosion.
✅ Tool-Free Operation:
Certain variants allow for manual installation and removal without
tools, significantly reducing downtime during screen changes.
Applications
• Oil & Gas Drilling: Used in primary solid control systems such as shale shakers for secure screen fixation.
• Mining and Mineral Processing: Suitable for ore and coal classification screens where reliable
tensioning is critical.
• Food and Chemical Industries: Stainless steel wedges available for applications requiring
sanitary-grade material compliance.
Common Issues & Solutions
• Screen Loosening: Re-tension or replace worn wedges to maintain proper screen flatness and tension.
• Wedge Jamming: Clean guide rails and apply a silicone-based lubricant to prevent
sticking and ensure smooth operation.
