Description
This Filpro low profile filter is a 1/4 inch MNPT inline strainer built to catch debris before it reaches pumps, dispense valves, and metering equipment. Maintenance teams and machine builders keep these on hand because they fit tight spaces, clear quickly, and add a layer of protection that pays for itself the first time it stops a contaminant from chewing up a seal or clogging a metering orifice.
Where a Low Profile Filter Earns Its Spot
Use this strainer upstream of fluid pumps, adhesive dispensers, sprayers, and any precision metering valve fed from a bulk tank or supply line. Sediment, hose flake, and curing residue all build up over time, and the screen catches it before it lands in expensive downstream hardware. The white nylon body and clear bowl make particle buildup visible at a glance, so techs know when to flush and rinse the screen before performance drops.
What Sets the Filpro Low Profile Filter Apart
The bowl twists off without a wrench, so cleaning takes under a minute on a production line. The stainless steel mesh screen pulls out, rinses, and reseats with no tools and no consumables. Footprint stays small at 3 inches long by 1.89 inches wide by 2.67 inches tall, which keeps it out of the way on dense fluid panels where every inch matters. The nylon body resists most fluid chemistries common in adhesive and sealant production.
Operating Notes
Maximum working pressure runs 100 PSI with a maximum fluid temperature of 125 F. Stay inside both limits to protect the polyamide body and the gasket seal. Inspect the screen at every shift change on high-particulate fluids and at every cartridge change on cleaner systems. Replace the bowl gasket if you ever see a weep at the bowl-to-body seam.
