10-Inch Granular Activated Carbon Water Purifier Filter Element, 20 Micron, Food Grade ABS End Cap
Product Spotlights
As a trusted manufacturer since 1998, Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory proudly presents our 10-Inch Granular Activated Carbon Water Purifier Filter Element with 20 micron filtration and food grade ABS end caps. This cartridge is engineered to deliver high-performance adsorption and mechanical filtration, effectively removing chlorine, taste, odor, sediment, and organic contaminants from your water supply. With over two decades of manufacturing excellence and annual export value exceeding US$5 million, we ensure consistent quality and reliability in every filter we produce.
Our granular activated carbon (GAC) filter is the ideal choice for residential and commercial water treatment systems. The 20 micron rating balances high flow rate with effective particle reduction, while the food grade ABS end caps provide durability and safe, leak-free connections. Whether you use it in a countertop filter, under-sink system, or as a pre-filter in a reverse osmosis unit, this element delivers clean, fresh-tasting water.
Key Features
- High Adsorption Capacity: Granular activated carbon effectively removes chlorine, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and unpleasant tastes and odors.
- 20 Micron Filtration: Captures suspended particles such as sand, rust, silt, and dirt, protecting downstream equipment.
- Food Grade ABS End Caps: BPA-free, corrosion-resistant, and designed for secure sealing with standard 10-inch filter housings.
- Universal Fit: Compatible with most 10-inch (2.5" diameter) water filter housings on the market.
- High Flow Rate: Up to 2 GPM at 0.3 bar, ensuring sufficient water pressure for daily use.
- Wide Operating Temperature Range: 4°C - 45°C (40°F - 113°F), suitable for both cold and warm water applications.
- Eco-Friendly Materials: Carbon derived from coconut shells or coal (optional), with recyclable ABS components.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between a GAC filter and a carbon block filter?
GAC (granular activated carbon) filters use loose carbon granules, allowing higher flow rates but lower particulate removal (typically 20-50 micron). Carbon block filters are compressed, offering finer filtration (down to 0.5 micron) but lower flow. Our GAC filter is ideal for taste/odor reduction and sediment pre-filtration.
2. How often should I replace this filter element?
Replacement frequency depends on water quality and usage. Typically, a 10-inch GAC filter should be replaced every 3-6 months. If you notice a drop in flow rate or a return of chlorine taste, it's time to change.
3. Is this filter compatible with my existing 10-inch housing?
Yes, this filter has a standard 10-inch length and 2.5-inch diameter, fitting most universal 10-inch filter housings. The end caps are designed with standard O-ring grooves. Please verify your housing's connection type (flat or notched) if needed.
4. Does it remove bacteria or viruses?
No, this is a mechanical/adsorption filter. It does not remove bacteria, viruses, or dissolved minerals. For microbiological protection, combine with a UV sterilizer or membrane filter.
5. Is the ABS material safe for drinking water?
Yes, the ABS used is food-grade, BPA-free, and complies with international standards for drinking water contact materials. It is corrosion-resistant and non-toxic.
6. Can I use this filter with hot water?
Maximum operating temperature is 45°C (113°F). Do not use with water above this temperature, as it may damage the carbon and ABS components.
7. What is the flow rate and will it affect my water pressure?
Flow rate is up to 2 GPM at 0.3 bar pressure. In most household systems, pressure drop is minimal. If you experience low flow, check for clogged pre-filters or low incoming pressure.
8. Do you offer OEM/private label services?
Yes, we can customize packaging, labeling, and even end cap designs according to your brand requirements. Minimum order quantity may apply. Please contact our sales team for details.
