Fully Welded Felt Filter Bags Fully Welded Felt Filter Bags

HL Filter offers a wide range of fully welded liquid filter bags designed and constructed to fit an assortment of filter vessels, whether from HL Filter or from another supplier. We manufacture our own felt media for our felt filter bags under 9001:2008 quality systems, resulting in order to order, year to year, reliability and repeatability. Each filter bag is also individually sealed in protective plastic packaging to prevent contamination. Our filter bags are silicone free with sturdy construction and easy installation.

Our fully welded felt filter bags feature with all seams and the collar are sonically welded (w/w/w construction), enhancing filtration quality, eliminating leaks and bypass that may have occurred with sewn seams. Welds are continuous, strong, consistent, and eliminate stray strands along the welds. Higher efficiency is due to tighter seal tolerances. The fused edges provide a fiber-free finish and virtually eliminate unwanted fiber migration.
