Product Spotlights
Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer established in 1998, proudly presents our Stainless Steel Pleated Filter Element with 304 Material, 1 Micron, 2.5 inch OD, 10 inch Length, 150 psi. This high-performance filter element is engineered to deliver exceptional filtration efficiency and durability for demanding industrial applications. With over two decades of manufacturing expertise and an annual export value of US$5–10 million, we ensure each unit meets rigorous quality standards.
Our pleated filter element features a 304 stainless steel mesh design, providing excellent corrosion resistance and mechanical strength. The 1 micron absolute filtration rating captures fine particles, while the pleated structure maximizes surface area for extended service life. Capable of handling up to 150 psi, this element is suitable for high-pressure systems in water treatment, chemical processing, oil filtration, and more.
Key Features & Technical Specifications
- Material: 304 Stainless Steel – robust against rust and chemical attack.
- Filtration Efficiency: 1 micron absolute – ensures clean output for sensitive applications.
- Pleated Design: Increases effective filtration area by up to 4x compared to standard mesh, reducing pressure drop and extending change intervals.
- Dimensions: 2.5 inch OD × 10 inch length – industry-standard size, compatible with most housings.
- Pressure Rating: 150 psi (10.3 bar) at ambient temperature – suitable for moderate to high-pressure systems.
- End Cap Options: Available with open, closed, 222, 226, or custom configurations to fit your housing.
- Sealing Materials: Buna-N, Viton, EPDM, or silicone upon request for temperature and chemical compatibility.
- Reusable & Cleanable: The stainless steel element can be backwashed or chemically cleaned, reducing replacement costs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
Q: How often should I replace this filter element?
A: It depends on the particle load and operating conditions. Typically, the element can be cleaned 3–5 times before replacement. Monitor pressure drop – when it reaches 30–40 psi above initial, cleaning is recommended. -
Q: Can this filter element be used for oil filtration?
A: Yes, 304 stainless steel is compatible with most oils, fuels, and hydraulic fluids. Ensure the sealing material (e.g., Viton) is selected for oil resistance. -
Q: What is the maximum temperature rating?
A: With standard Buna-N seals, up to 120°C; with Viton, up to 200°C. Please specify your temperature requirements when ordering. -
Q: Is this element suitable for food and beverage applications?
A: 304 stainless steel is food-grade safe. However, for direct food contact, we recommend using a 316L version or our custom FDA-compliant seals. Contact us for details. -
Q: How do I clean the filter element?
A: Backwash with clean water or compatible solvent, or use ultrasonic cleaning. Avoid using harsh chemicals that may damage the seal. Air blow dry after cleaning. -
Q: What is the initial pressure drop at 1 micron?
A: It varies with flow rate. For water at 10 gpm, the initial ΔP is approximately 2–3 psi. A detailed performance curve can be provided upon request. -
Q: Can you provide custom sizes or end caps?
A: Absolutely. We offer customization for OD, length, end cap types, and sealing materials. Minimum order quantities may apply. Please contact our sales team. -
Q: Do you have any quality certifications?
A: Our factory follows strict internal quality control procedures. While we do not hold third-party certifications like ISO, we have been exporting for over 20 years and our products are widely accepted worldwide. Samples can be tested before bulk order.
