10 Micron Pleated Coarse Sediment Filter – 20" Std

$80.30

The 10 Micron Pleated Coarse Sediment Filter – 20" Standard is a washable pleated sediment filter cartridge designed for standard 20" filter housings. It provides mechanical filtration to remove fine suspended particles from water while maintaining high flow rates. Ideal as a primary pre-filtration stage, it helps protect downstream filters, plumbing, appliances, and UV systems, extending the life of the overall water filtration system.
