Oversized 2.5×3.5 Metre Filter Press Cloth for Large-Format Presses
Skytech Ultrafab 2.5×3.5 Mtr Filter Press Cloth is precision-fabricated for oversized recessed-chamber and membrane filter presses with 2500 mm × 3500 mm plate dimensions — among the largest plate sizes in service in high-throughput mining, chemical, and wastewater dewatering operations. Each cloth is manufactured from heavy-duty polypropylene or polyester monofilament with exact feed neck position, reinforced ear sections, and corner drain holes specified to the plate drawing, ensuring a correct fit and consistent cake performance at every position in the large-format press.
What Is 2.5×3.5 Mtr Filter Press Cloth?
A 2.5×3.5 Mtr Filter Press Cloth is a large-format filter cloth fabricated for filter press plates with face dimensions of 2500 mm in one direction and 3500 mm in the other — a rectangular plate format used in certain high-throughput mining, municipal wastewater, and industrial dewatering applications. The rectangular plate geometry requires a precisely rectangular cloth cut with feed neck and drain holes at positions determined by the plate design, and ear reinforcements able to carry the load of the large cloth and wet cake during press opening.

Features and Benefits
-
Exact 2500×3500 mm Fabrication:
Every cloth cut and assembled to exact 2500 mm × 3500 mm dimensions with feed neck, drain holes, and ears positioned to the customer plate drawing — any deviation causes bypass or cake bridging across the large plate face
-
Heavy-Duty Yarn Construction:
Large plate area requires heavier monofilament yarn than standard-format cloths to prevent cloth sag under the weight of the wet cake formed in the oversized chamber
-
Reinforced Load-Bearing Ears:
Ear sections fabricated from triple-thickness cloth with extra stitching rows — the large cloth and full cake load creates substantially higher ear stress than in standard-size plates
-
Custom Weave per Application:
Plain, twill, and satin weave options in PP and PES — weave selected for the specific application and press duty, as cake release and drainage requirements differ significantly across mining, chemical, and wastewater applications
-
OEM Press Compatibility:
Fabricated to fit all large-format filter presses from Metso, Andritz, JWI, Jingjin, Kurita, and other OEM brands that use 2500×3500 mm or similar oversized plate formats
-
Long-Haul Delivery Capability:
Large-format cloths packaged for safe transport to remote mine sites, international export, and port delivery — Skytech ships large-format cloths to customers across Asia, the Middle East, and Africa

Applications
-
Large-Scale Mining Dewatering:
High-tonnage mineral concentrate dewatering in large-plate filter presses at mine site processing plants — copper, iron ore, and phosphate operations with high per-cycle throughput targets
-
Municipal Wastewater:
Large-scale municipal sewage sludge dewatering in oversized filter presses serving major city wastewater treatment plants
-
Industrial Wastewater:
Power plant, paper mill, and steel plant effluent sludge dewatering in large-format filter presses handling high daily sludge volumes
-
Chemical Production:
Large-scale pigment, calcium carbonate, and specialty chemical dewatering in oversized recessed-plate filter presses at major chemical production sites
-
Coal Tailings:
High-volume coal tailings and fine coal dewatering in large-plate filter presses at coal preparation plants replacing tailings pond operations
Why Choose Skytech Ultrafab for 2.5x3.5 Mtr Filter Press Cloth?
-
Large-Format Fabrication Capability:
Skytech has the cutting, sewing, and quality inspection capability for 2500×3500 mm cloths — not all filter cloth manufacturers can handle this plate size reliably
-
Plate Drawing Fabrication:
Cloth fabricated exclusively from the customer plate drawing — feed neck position, drain hole count and diameter, and ear geometry are press-specific and cannot be assumed
-
Export Packaging:
Large-format cloths packaged in weatherproof rolls or crates for safe international shipping to mine sites and industrial plants — experience exporting to Middle East, Africa, and Asia
-
Technical Support:
Application engineers advise on correct weave and micron rating for each large-format application — wrong specification on an oversized cloth is a costly mistake
-
Competitive vs Imports:
Indian manufacture provides significant cost advantage over European-sourced large-format cloths — savings are proportionally larger on oversized formats where per-cloth fabric cost is high
