TAPC manufactures cages for use in most baghouses. Properly designed cages serve as critical baghouse components for optimum bag performance and durability. Cages are traditionally constructed of one of the following:

• Low carbon steel (bright basic wire)
• Galvanized low carbon steel
• 304 stainless steel
• 316 stainless steel
• Other specialty materials

Rigid Wire Cages

Standard and specialty cage tops are available and all bottom pans are welded to the inside. Options for rigid wire cages include:

• 3mm wire diameter (11 gauge)
• 4mm wire diameter (9 gauge)
• 4.5mm wire diameter (7 gauge)
• 100mm to 200mm cage diameter
• Customized number of vertical wires (8, 10, 12, or 20)
• Customized ring spacing - standard is 150mm or 200mm

Specialty Cages

We manufacture specialty cage designs for specific applications including:

Omni Cage
The Omni cage top was developed to facilitate snapband bag removal. It has a detachable top which allows removal of the cage top first. With the cage top no longer blocking access to the snapband, the band can be snapped loose from the tubesheet, and the bag and cage body lifted out easily.

Two-Piece Cage
For applications with low headroom in the clean air plenum, TAPC offers a two piece cage. This style can make for easier installation and removal in these difficult applications.

Chemically Resistant Finishes
In addition to providing various stainless steel alternatives, TAPC can provide Teflon® and epoxy finishes to prevent chemical attack.
