Features & Benefits

  • The GORE® LOW DRAG Filter membrane can be operated at a lower differential pressure (dP), resulting in fan energy savings, longer bag life and improved process control. Some customers choose to operate at a higher airflow (same dP) resulting in potential increases in production capacity or more effective evacuation. In all cases, this membrane provides excellent particulate capture efficiency, dust cake release and filtration performance.
  • The backing material is chemically inert and extremely supple and flexible. These features offer enhanced flex life and long bag performance life, even in chemically aggressive conditions.
  • PTFE high tenacity sewing thread means a more rugged, dependable construction, which matches the chemical resistance of the rest of the bag.
  • Optimized construction brings the best properties of the filter materials together into a finished product where the strength of the design matches and enhances the strength of the components.
