Product Spotlights
Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory – a trusted manufacturer with over 25 years of expertise in wire mesh and filtration solutions. Since 1998, we have been dedicated to producing high-quality stainless steel filter cartridges for industrial applications. Our 20-inch 5 Micron Stainless Steel 304 Filter Cartridge is specifically engineered for demanding chemical processing environments. It offers excellent corrosion resistance, reusable design, and consistent filtration performance, making it a cost-effective choice for your liquid filtration needs.
This cartridge is constructed from premium 304 stainless steel, ensuring durability and long service life even when exposed to aggressive chemicals. The 5-micron rating effectively removes fine particulates, protecting downstream equipment and maintaining product purity. Its pleated structure provides a large filtration area, which translates to high dirt-holding capacity and low pressure drop. Whether you are filtering acids, alkalis, solvents, or high-viscosity fluids, this cartridge delivers reliable results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: Can this filter cartridge be cleaned and reused?
A: Yes, the 304 stainless steel pleated design is fully cleanable. You can backwash it with clean water, use ultrasonic cleaning, or soak in appropriate chemical solutions. Proper cleaning can restore its filtration efficiency multiple times, significantly reducing operating costs. -
Q: What is the maximum operating temperature?
A: The stainless steel structure itself can withstand up to 250°C, but the actual temperature limit depends on the sealing material used. Silicone seals are good up to 200°C, Viton up to 250°C, and PTFE up to 260°C. We can advise on the best option for your application. -
Q: What end cap configurations are available?
A: Standard options include DOE (double open end), 222 (flat gasket), 226 (O-ring), and 215 (bayonet). Custom configurations are also available upon request. Please provide your housing specifications, and we will match the correct end cap. -
Q: Is this cartridge suitable for high-viscosity fluids?
A: Yes, the pleated design with large surface area allows for efficient filtration of high-viscosity liquids such as oils, resins, and adhesives. However, the pressure drop may increase; we recommend consulting our engineering team for optimal sizing. -
Q: Can you provide samples before bulk order?
A: Absolutely. We offer sample cartridges for testing. Custom samples may require a small mold fee, which is refundable for large orders. Contact us with your requirements, and we will arrange shipment. -
Q: What is the typical lead time?
A: For standard cartridges (20-inch, 5 micron, 304 SS), lead time is 7–15 working days after order confirmation. For custom specifications, it may be 15–20 working days. We also have express shipping options for urgent needs. -
Q: What industries commonly use this product?
A: This cartridge is widely used in chemical processing, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, food & beverage, electroplating, metalworking, and water treatment industries. It is particularly effective for filtering aggressive chemicals, solvents, and plating baths. -
Q: How do I choose the right micron rating for my application?
A: The 5 micron rating is suitable for fine filtration. If you need coarser prefiltration, we offer 10, 20, 50, and 100 micron options. For finer filtration, 1 micron and 0.5 micron are also available. Our technical team can help you select based on your particle size distribution and desired clarity.
