Bridge Slot Screens are manufactured from internally punched quality sheet metal. When the slit is made there is NO integral weakness is caused to the collapsible resistance as there is no material removed from the pipe.
The advanced bridge slotted screen technology enables superior weld strengths and accurate slots tolerances. The slot openings are pressed out, but the material remains providing increases mechanical strength.
The bridge slot design acts as a gravel pack retainer allowing for the slots to usually stay unblocked and preserve the hydraulic efficiency. A prerequisite with this product is the right gravel pack design. The result is an economical robust well screen providing a sand retention in gravel pack completions.
