PVC Swarf Screen Performance

PVC swarf screens provide a flexible barrier to flying pieces of product and will not tear or melt when subjected to hot swarf or metal filings. Manufactured from SonicClear PVC sheet or strip curtains with Flexshield’s trademark attention to detail, our swarf screens offer a versatile, clean, safe, and hassle-free solution for dealing with swarf. These screens are tailor-made to maximise throughput based on expected swarf specifications, ensuring that equipment modification is unnecessary.

PVC Swarf Screen Construction

Flexshield’s PVC swarf control curtains and barriers are made using durable, UV-resistant, and anti-corrosive materials. Thanks to their robust PVC construction, our swarf screens have a longer life cycle, resulting in lower costs and zero downtime. They maintain 100% natural lighting for a clear line of sight to machinery and allow unhindered access for personnel, ensuring equipment can be safely operated and maintained.

PVC swarf control curtains use Flexshield’s SonicClear PVC product, which is resistant to various chemicals and NATA tested. Depending on the design of the swarf screen, it could be installed with anodised track and dished washers.

PVC Swarf Screen Mounting Systems

Flexshield swarf control curtains and barriers are custom-made to suit your business’s size and environmental requirements. Flexshield can quickly manufacture and supply the curtains. They are available as a kit with easy installation instructions, or Flexshield can install them at your location. Once installed, these curtains and barriers provide immediate protection from the swarf.

Dished washers are used in all Flexshield strip curtains to extend the life of the PVC strip and help prevent tearing at the mounting points. Stainless steel fixings prevent corrosion and ensure easy maintenance, while aluminium mounting tracks are anodised for a durable, neutral finish.

Heavy Duty Head Rail

Head or face mount options with anodised aluminium—simple and efficient installation, also available in a compact size.

Stainless Steel Hook-On Track System

A premium hook-on product that uses corrosion-resistant stainless steel and can be easily removed for cleaning and unrestricted access.

Strip Curtain Sliding Track Options

Flexshield sliding curtains allow clear, unrestricted access through your doorway during heavy traffic or when the barrier is not required. Our sliding strip curtain can have spring-loaded positioning locks and extension handles for high doorways. Our system allows the strip curtain to be mounted inside a doorway with a roller door fitted, ensuring the curtain is protected from the weather and vandalism.

"Many Thanks for the supply and delivery of our Flexshield Screens. Your service has been impeccable from start to finish. These shields have been a monumental improvement to our welding area, and they will last for many years to come."
