Features and Benefits

  • Chemically inert, providing the highest all-around chemical resistance and maximum bag life
  • Constructed using a woven ePTFE scrim that provides excellent dimensional stability, extended flex life, and resistance to mechanical damage over the life of the filter
  • Patented GORE™  High Durability membrane technology provides an excellent combination of filtration efficiency, airflow, and durability

Applications

  • Chemicals processing: silica production and chemical process reactors that incorporate micronizing, grinding, and product collection in extreme environments that are chemically and thermally aggressive
  • Minerals processing: N/A
  • Metals processing: lead, copper, and other base metal production.
  • Power generation and incineration: N/A
