Polypropylene Pleated Filter Element 10-Inch Length 20 Micron Nominal for Water Treatment
Product Spotlights
As a leading manufacturer with over 25 years of experience in filtration products, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory proudly presents our Polypropylene Pleated Filter Element in a 10-inch length with a 20 micron nominal rating. This cartridge is engineered specifically for water treatment applications, offering high dirt-holding capacity, low pressure drop, and consistent filtration performance. Our pleated design maximizes surface area, ensuring longer service life and reduced maintenance costs for your filtration system.
The element is constructed from 100% pure polypropylene media, making it chemically resistant and suitable for a wide range of water sources. Whether you are treating municipal water, industrial process water, or groundwater, this filter element effectively removes suspended solids, sand, silt, and other particulate contaminants down to 20 microns.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Filtration Area: Pleated polypropylene media provides up to 6 times more surface area compared to standard string-wound filters, resulting in higher flow rates and longer service life.
- Low Pressure Drop: The open pleat structure minimizes flow resistance, reducing energy consumption in your pumping system.
- Chemical Compatibility: Polypropylene is resistant to a broad range of chemicals, including acids, alkalis, and organic solvents, making it suitable for various industrial applications.
- Thermal Stability: Operates effectively at temperatures up to 80°C (176°F), suitable for hot water filtration.
- Easy Installation: Standard 10-inch length with double open end (DOE) configuration fits most standard filter housings. Custom end cap options are available upon request.
- Consistent Filtration: Nominal 20 micron rating ensures reliable removal of particles, providing clean water for downstream processes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is the difference between nominal and absolute micron rating?
A: Our 20 micron nominal rating means the filter captures approximately 85-90% of particles of that size. For higher precision, absolute-rated filters are available upon request.
Q: Can this filter element be used for oil filtration?
A: While polypropylene is resistant to many oils, we recommend confirming compatibility with your specific fluid. For oil filtration, other media may be more suitable.
Q: How often should I replace the filter element?
A: Replacement frequency depends on the feed water quality and flow rate. Typically, when the pressure drop across the filter reaches 2.0 bar, replacement is recommended.
Q: What end cap options are available?
A: Standard double open end (DOE) is supplied. Optional flat gasket, knife-edge, or bayonet end caps can be customized.
Q: Is this filter element food-grade?
A: Yes, our polypropylene material is FDA-compliant for food contact. For specific food-grade certifications, please contact our sales team.
Q: Can I use this filter in hot water up to 80°C?
A: Yes, the maximum operating temperature is 80°C (176°F). For higher temperatures, consider other materials such as stainless steel or glass fiber.
Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
A: Our standard MOQ is 100 pieces per size. For larger quantities, volume discounts are available.
Q: Do you provide samples for testing?
A: Yes, sample orders are welcomed. Please contact us with your shipping details to request a sample.
