Extended Life Filter Bag Technology

XL - Extended Life Filter Bag Technology

As the name suggests, Extended Life filter bags are designed to give longer service life, therefore reducing operating costs and process downtime. The unique blend of fibres in extended life media offers 2 to 5 times the dirt holding capacity of traditional needle felt material.

XL technology is available in Polypropylene (POXL) and Polyester (PEXL) versions.

longer lasting filter bags due to void volume

When you compare a cross section of traditional needle felt with that of Extended Life media, the improved dirt holding capacity is obvious. What you cannot see is the unique blend of fibres with a finer diameter providing the same great filtration efficiencies as standard felt in a loftier structure. The result is increased "void volume" leaving more space to trap dirt without sacrificing filtration efficiency or differential pressure. As with standard felts, XL technology provides the same fibre free surface treatment to prevent fibre migration down stream.


Thermally bonded seam construction provides improved filtration efficiency by eliminating needle holes and thread. Our exclusive PolyformSEAL™ offers excellent sealing characteristics and easy bag change out with its raised handles. The end result is increased bag life; equating to less time spent on bag change outs therefore dollars saved. Polyester or food grade Polypropylene with fibre free surface treatment, facilitates an extended life filter bag right for any job.
