Stainless Steel Corrugated Filter Element 5 Micron Pleated Design for Oil & Gas
Product Spotlights
Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer since 1998, specializing in high-performance filtration solutions. Our Stainless Steel Corrugated Filter Element 5 Micron Pleated Design for Oil & Gas is engineered to deliver superior solid-liquid separation in demanding oil and gas applications. Crafted from premium stainless steel, this filter element offers exceptional durability, corrosion resistance, and long service life, ensuring your operations run smoothly with minimal downtime.
The pleated design significantly increases the filtration surface area, allowing for higher dirt-holding capacity and lower pressure drop compared to standard filter elements. With a precise 5 micron rating, it effectively removes fine particles, protecting downstream equipment and maintaining product quality. Whether you need filtration for crude oil, natural gas, refinery processes, or hydraulic fluids, our corrugated filter element is a reliable choice.
Backed by over two decades of manufacturing expertise and an annual export value of US$5–10 million, we supply to markets across North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania. Our products are shipped from major Chinese ports including Tianjin, Qingdao, and Shanghai, ensuring timely delivery worldwide.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What is the difference between nominal and absolute micron rating?
Nominal 5 micron means the filter is designed to capture the majority of particles of 5 microns and larger, while absolute rating indicates a defined efficiency (e.g., 99.9%) at that size. Our standard 5 micron elements are nominal; absolute ratings are available upon request.
2. Can this filter element be cleaned and reused?
Yes, stainless steel pleated filter elements are typically cleanable and reusable. They can be backwashed, ultrasonically cleaned, or chemically cleaned depending on the contaminant. However, cleaning effectiveness depends on the application and particle type.
3. What end cap configurations are available?
We offer standard DOE (Double Open End), SOE (Single Open End), 222 Flat Gasket, 226 Fin Gasket, and 2″-8UN threads. Custom end caps can be manufactured to fit your specific housing.
4. Is this filter suitable for high-viscosity fluids like crude oil?
Absolutely. The corrugated pleated design provides a large open area, minimizing pressure drop even with viscous fluids. We can also customize the micron rating and pleat spacing to optimize performance for your specific fluid.
5. What is the typical lead time for a custom order?
Standard sizes are in stock and can ship within 7–10 days. Custom orders (special dimensions, end caps, or micron ratings) typically require 15–25 days. We work with you to meet urgent deadlines.
6. Do you provide samples for testing?
Yes, we offer sample orders for evaluation. Please contact our sales team to discuss your requirements. Sample costs are negotiable, and we can provide a sample for a nominal fee plus shipping.
7. What certifications do you have for quality control?
Our factory follows strict internal quality management procedures. We do not currently hold external certifications, but each element is individually tested for integrity and performance before shipment. We can provide inspection reports upon request.
8. Can you provide a quotation for a large quantity?
Certainly. Please send us your desired specifications, quantity, and target price. We offer competitive pricing for bulk orders, especially for long-term contracts. Our annual export volume of US$5–10 million reflects our ability to handle large-scale production.
