Wedge wire well screens are usually attached to the bottom of the casing, if pumps water from a sand-gravel aquifer. The wedge wire well screens are extend into the aquifer and allow water to move through the gap, while preventing sand and gravel from entering the water well.

The water wells completed with gravel pack is the best way for sand control. In the processing, sand or gravel is placed outside the wedge wire screen, between the screen and the bore hole wall, that better to prevents fine sediment from entering the screen and also promotes water move into the well.

Wedge wire well screen slot size depended on size of sand or gravel of the aquifer.
