Polypropylene GAF filter bag Size 1 for industrial liquid filtration. Made of dimensionally stable needle felt with support scrim and a welded plastic ring. Available in 1, 5, 25, 50 and 100 micron.
These GAF filter bags are designed for reliable liquid filtration in industrial bag filter housings. The correct version is determined by the size, filter material and required micron rating.
The GAF filter bags in Size 1 have approximate dimensions of Ø 180 × 430 mm. If you require a longer version, view our polypropylene GAF filter bag Size 2.
Always check whether the selected size is suitable for the existing filter housing.
Our GAF filter bags are made of polypropylene needle felt with support scrim, heat-set and fitted with a welded plastic ring. Polypropylene (PP) is often chosen for applications where good chemical resistance is important.
Suitability depends on the liquid being filtered, its concentration, the process temperature and the operating conditions. For critical applications, always check the chemical and thermal compatibility in advance.
For applications where polyester is better suited to the liquid or where higher temperature resistance is required, you can choose a Polyester GAF Filter Bag Size 1 or a Polyester GAF Filter Bag Size 2.
The lower the micron rating, the finer the filtration.
The appropriate micron rating depends on factors including particle size, the liquid, the required level of filtration and the permitted pressure drop.
Other sizes and finishes are available on request.
The technical values below apply to the polyester filter medium. The properties vary according to the micron rating and were measured under the conditions stated in the technical data sheet.
| Property | Value |
| Material | Polypropylene |
| Treatment | Singed |
| Continuous temperature | 90 °C |
| Peak temperature | 100 °C |
| Nominal filtration rating | 1 µm | 5 µm | 25 µm | 50 µm | 100 µm |
| Air permeability at 200 Pa (l/dm²/min) | 120 | 210 | 360 | 720 | 1020 |
| Filter-medium weight (g/m²) | 545 | 420 | 400 | 400 | 380 |
| Filter-medium thickness (mm) | 2.9 | 2.6 | 2.55 | 2.75 | 2.75 |
| Tensile strength machine direction (daN/5cm) | >100 | >85 | >70 | >70 | >55 |
| Tensile strength cross direction (daN/5cm) | >100 | >85 | >70 | >70 | >50 |
Coarser filter media generally have a higher air permeability than finer versions. These air-permeability values are primarily intended to compare the different filter media under identical test conditions and do not represent the liquid flow rate in an installation.
