Three large cooling towers from a power plant emit white steam against a clear blue sky. The gray towers, adorned with red-and-white patterned tops, stand prominently in the image.

Metallic Drift

For special applications where extreme temperatures or flammability concerns restrict the use of polymer materials, Brentwood has developed metallic versions of popular blade-style drift eliminators. The blade design of these products enables efficient drift removal at low pressure drop and pairs well with CF1900SS, Brentwood's stainless steel film fill offering.

Metallic drift eliminators are used in both counterflow and crossflow applications and do not require replacement as they will last the lifetime of your tower. Available in 304 stainless steel or hot dip galvanized steel, Brentwood’s patent-pending metallic drift eliminators are non-combustible and corrosion-resistant. All components are laser cut for precise fit and mechanically assembled using 304SS hardware. Their modular design allows for adjustable widths and custom-length packs to meet any job specifications.
