Hytrex, Putrex and Specialty Depth Cartridge Filters

High value, general purpose depth cartridge filters

The Hytrex depth cartridge filter portfolio delivers exceptional value for general applications requiring long life, high purity, and low change-out frequency. These 100% pure polypropylene depth filters, including adapters, offer exceptional dirt-holding capacity. The true-graded density filter matrix features lower density at the surface and progressively higher density toward the center, capturing particles throughout the entire filter depth. This design results in longer life and fewer change-outs compared to string-wound or other competitive depth filters.
