Description
String Wound Yarn Filter Cartridge
The WIRES String Wound Filter Cartridge is a depth-type filter element designed for low-viscosity, low-contaminant fluids. High-quality textile yarn — polypropylene, degreased cotton or glass fiber — is precisely wound in a controlled pattern onto a porous core (polypropylene or stainless steel). The resulting outer-loose, inner-dense honeycomb structure efficiently captures suspended solids, fine particles and rust, delivering excellent depth filtration performance.
Key Features
- Graded-density winding: outer layer coarse, inner layer fine, for high dirt holding
- Available in polypropylene yarn, degreased cotton yarn and glass fiber yarn options
- Choice of polypropylene or stainless steel inner core for different temperature limits
- Removes suspended solids, particles, rust and sediment from liquids
- Wide chemical compatibility across water, oils and aggressive chemical solutions

Cross Reference
WIRES string-wound cartridges are interchangeable with equivalent wound yarn cartridges from Pall, 3M (CUNO), Eaton, Parker, Pentair and Hayward, fitting standard 28 mm / 30 mm core filter housings. Cotton-yarn stainless-core versions are suited for pharmaceutical and high-temperature service.
Applications
- Polypropylene yarn cartridges: water, acids/alkalis and non-organic chemical solutions
- Glass fiber yarn cartridges: organic chemical solutions, strong acids/alkalis and oxidizing fluids
- Pre-filtration for reverse osmosis and nanofiltration systems
- Process water, beverage and bottled water pretreatment
- Electroplating solution and chemical bath filtration
