What is a Wound Filter Cartridge?

Wound Filter Cartridge is capable of eliminating rust, dirt, and other sediments from water by using fibers. The string material can be nylon, polyester, cotton, etc. It wraps on a center core like stainless steel or polypropylene.

String Wound Filter Cartridges are another effective way of removing sediment particles from your water. These filters are also called depth filters because they use 2 layers of filtration to keep out unwanted particles.

The first layer catches any particles that are the same size or larger than the micron rating, while the inner layer catches smaller particles that slip through the initial filtration. This enhanced filtration comes at the cost of surface area, meaning that depth filters usually need to be cleaned/changed quicker than pleated filters.
