Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer since 1998, proudly presents our 20-Inch Phenolic Resin Fiber Sediment Filter – a high-performance solution for water treatment systems. With a precise 5-micron rating and a maximum pressure capacity of 100 PSI, this filter effectively removes suspended solids, sand, silt, and rust particles from water, ensuring clean and reliable filtration. Our factory, exporting to over 15 global markets including North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia, combines decades of wire mesh and filtration expertise to deliver a product that meets the rigorous demands of industrial, commercial, and residential water treatment applications.
The filter is constructed from premium phenolic resin-impregnated fiber, offering excellent structural integrity and resistance to water degradation. This material provides a depth filtration mechanism, trapping particles throughout the entire thickness of the media, resulting in higher dirt-holding capacity and longer service life compared to surface-type filters. The 20-inch length is a standard size compatible with most common filter housings, making it a convenient replacement option.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- High Filtration Precision: 5-micron nominal rating captures fine sediment particles, protecting downstream equipment like pumps, valves, and membrane systems.
- Robust Material: Phenolic resin fiber resists hydrolysis and bacterial growth, suitable for both potable water and non-potable water applications.
- Pressure Rating: Designed to operate at up to 100 PSI (6.9 bar) at room temperature, ensuring safe operation in standard water pressure conditions.
- Standard Dimensions: 20-inch length (508 mm) with outer diameter typically 2.5 inches (63 mm) and inner diameter 1.125 inches (28 mm) – compatible with most industry-standard housings.
- Customizable End Caps: Available with open or closed end caps, as well as double open-ended options, to fit various housing configurations.
- High Dirt Holding Capacity: Depth filtration design allows for longer intervals between replacements, reducing maintenance costs.
- Chemical Compatibility: Resistant to common water treatment chemicals such as chlorine (up to moderate levels), making it suitable for pre-filtration in RO systems.

Benefits for Your Water Treatment System
- Protects Sensitive Equipment: By removing sediment down to 5 microns, this filter extends the life of downstream filters, membranes, and pumps, reducing repair and replacement costs.
- Improves Water Quality: Effectively reduces turbidity, making water clearer and more aesthetically pleasing for drinking, cooking, and industrial processes.
- Low Maintenance: Phenolic resin fiber is structurally stable and resists channeling, meaning fewer filter changes and less downtime.
- Versatile Applications: Ideal for whole-house filtration, commercial water treatment, irrigation systems, pre-filtration for reverse osmosis, and many industrial fluid filtration processes.
- Easy Installation: Standard 20-inch size fits most common filter housings without adapters; available with various end cap configurations to match your existing system.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What is the difference between a 5-micron sediment filter and a 1-micron filter?
A: A 5-micron filter captures particles larger than 5 micrometers, which is sufficient for most sediment removal (sand, rust, silt). A 1-micron filter is finer and may clog faster if the water has high sediment load. Our 5-micron filter offers a balance between filtration efficiency and flow rate for general water treatment.
Q2: Can this filter be used for hot water?
A: The maximum recommended operating temperature is 120°F (49°C). For hot water applications above this temperature, please consult our technical team for alternative materials. Continuous use at high temperatures may degrade the phenolic resin.
Q3: How often should I replace this filter?
A: Replacement frequency depends on water quality and usage. Typically, a 5-micron sediment filter lasts 3 to 6 months in residential applications. In commercial or industrial settings with high sediment load, more frequent changes may be needed. Monitor pressure drop across the filter – a significant increase indicates it's time to replace.
Q4: Is this filter compatible with standard 20-inch filter housings?
A: Yes, it is designed to fit standard 20-inch housings with 2.5-inch outer diameter and 1.125-inch inner diameter. We offer different end cap types (open, closed, double open) to match various housing configurations. If you have a non-standard system, please provide your housing specifications for a custom solution.
Q5: Does the phenolic resin fiber contain any chemicals that could leach into water?
A: The phenolic resin used in our filters is cured and inert, designed for potable water applications. It does not leach harmful substances under normal operating conditions. However, we recommend flushing the filter with clean water for a few minutes before first use to remove any loose particles.
Q6: Can I use this filter in a reverse osmosis system?
A: Yes, it is commonly used as a pre-filter in RO systems to protect the membrane from sediment and extend its life. Ensure that the flow rate matches your system requirements. Our filter provides adequate flow for most residential and light commercial RO units.
Q7: What is the dirt-holding capacity of this filter?
A: The exact dirt-holding capacity varies with water conditions, but due to its depth filtration design, it can hold significantly more sediment than spun-bonded polypropylene filters of the same micron rating. Typically, it can handle up to 100-150 grams of sediment depending on the application.
Q8: Do you offer custom lengths or micron ratings?
A: Yes, we can customize the filter length, micron rating (10, 20, 50 microns), and end cap configurations to meet your specific requirements. Minimum order quantities may apply for custom sizes. Contact our sales team for more details.
