10″ Slim Line 5 Micron Pleated Filter

Description

The 10" Slim Line 5 Micron Pleated Filter is designed to deliver reliable sediment filtration while maintaining strong water flow. Its pleated design provides a larger surface area than standard depth filters, allowing it to capture more contaminants, extend service life, and reduce pressure drop. Ideal for residential, commercial, and light industrial water filtration systems, this filter improves water clarity and protects downstream equipment.
