10-Inch Pleated Cartridge Filter, Polypropylene Media, 40 GPM Flow Rate, 120°C Max Temperature
Product Spotlights
Established in 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory has been a trusted manufacturer of filtration solutions for over two decades. Our 10-Inch Pleated Cartridge Filter with Polypropylene Media is engineered to deliver high flow rates (up to 40 GPM) and withstand temperatures up to 120°C, making it ideal for demanding industrial and commercial applications. Whether you need to clarify water, remove particulates from chemicals, or protect downstream equipment, this cartridge offers consistent performance and long service life.
Leveraging our advanced pleating technology and quality control systems, we produce filters that maximize surface area while minimizing pressure drop. The polypropylene media is chemically resistant, hydrophobic, and compatible with a wide range of liquids. With annual export value exceeding US$5 million and shipments from ports like Tianjin, Qingdao, Shanghai, and Foshan, our products are trusted by customers across North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.
Key Features & Benefits
- High Flow Capacity: 40 GPM at standard conditions, reducing the number of cartridges needed and lowering system costs.
- Thermal Resistance: Handles continuous operating temperatures up to 120°C, suitable for hot water, steam condensate, and high-temperature process fluids.
- Chemical Compatibility: Polypropylene resists acids, alkalis, and many organic solvents, ensuring reliable filtration in harsh environments.
- Pleated Design: Large filtration area (up to 4-5 times more than standard melt-blown filters) extends service life and reduces replacement frequency.
- Low Pressure Drop: Optimized pleat geometry minimizes energy consumption and maintains consistent flow.
- Customizable Options: Available in multiple micron ratings (1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 µm), end cap styles (double open end, single open end with gasket), and with or without a polypropylene core.
- Easy Installation: Standard 10-inch length fits most industry housings; no special tools required.

Applications & Industries
- Water Treatment: RO pre-filtration, cooling tower, wastewater, and drinking water systems.
- Chemical Processing: Filtration of acids, bases, solvents, and plating solutions.
- Food & Beverage: Syrup, juice, beer, wine, and edible oil clarification.
- Pharmaceutical: Process water, intermediates, and final product filtration where high purity is required.
- Oil & Gas: Injection water, produced water, and amine filtration.
- General Industrial: Paint, ink, coatings, and coolant filtration.
Compared to traditional string-wound or melt-blown cartridges, our pleated design offers up to 4× longer service life and lower overall operating costs. The polypropylene media is inherently hydrophobic, making it an excellent choice for separating water from fuels or oils. Additionally, the filter can be customized with a center core for added mechanical strength in high-pressure applications.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Can this filter be used for hot water up to 120°C?
Yes, the polypropylene media is designed for continuous operation at temperatures up to 120°C (248°F). However, please verify the pressure-temperature rating: at higher temperatures, the maximum differential pressure decreases. For 120°C, the recommended max ΔP is 30 psi. Always consult our technical team for your specific conditions.
Q2: What micron ratings are available?
We offer standard filtration ratings of 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 microns. Other micron sizes (e.g., 0.5, 25, 75) are available upon request. Please note that micron rating refers to nominal filtration efficiency; actual performance may vary based on fluid characteristics.
Q3: Does this cartridge come with a core?
By default, the cartridge is available with or without a polypropylene core. The core adds mechanical strength for high-pressure or high-flow applications. If you need a core, please specify when ordering. Optional end caps can also be customized.
Q4: What is the filtration area of this 10-inch pleated filter?
The effective filtration area is approximately 5.5 square feet (0.51 m²). This large area allows for a high dirt-holding capacity and a low pressure drop, extending the service life compared to standard 10-inch melt-blown filters.
Q5: Can I use this filter for chemical filtration?
Yes, polypropylene is resistant to many acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. However, we recommend checking compatibility with your specific chemicals. For aggressive solvents (e.g., strong oxidizers), alternative media may be required. Contact us for compatibility data.
Q6: What is the typical pressure drop at 40 GPM?
Clean pressure drop at 40 GPM (water at 25°C) is approximately 1.5–2 psi (0.1–0.14 bar) for a 10-micron filter. The exact value depends on fluid viscosity and micron rating. Our product data sheet provides detailed pressure drop curves.
Q7: Do you provide samples before bulk orders?
Yes, we offer samples for testing. Please contact our sales team with your requirements. Sample lead time is typically 5–10 days, and shipping costs are negotiable. For standard items, samples can be sent within 3 days.
Q8: How do I install this cartridge in my housing?
Installation is straightforward: simply insert the cartridge into the housing, ensuring the end caps align with the housing’s sealing mechanism. For double open end (DOE) cartridges, use a spring-loaded center post. For single open end (SOE) with gasket, ensure the gasket is properly seated. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for your specific housing.
