Filter Cloth Selection Guide: Polypropylene, Nylon, and Polyester for Filter Press Applications

Home » News » Filter Cloth Selection Guide: Polypropylene, Nylon, and Polyester for Filter Press Applications

Filter cloth is the consumable separation medium in every filter press—its weave, fiber, and finish determine filtration efficiency, cake release, and cloth life.

Polypropylene dominates with chemical resistance (pH 1-14), temperature to 90°C, low cost. PP monofilament provides smooth surface release for sticky cakes. PP multifilament offers higher particle capture.

Nylon provides superior abrasion resistance and temperature to 110°C. Polyester offers stability to 150°C and oxidizing resistance. Air permeability (cfm) and micron rating define performance.

The Filter Cloth provides PP, nylon, polyester options. The PP Membrane Press uses membrane-compatible cloth. The Automatic Press benefits from optimized cloth. The High Pressure Press requires durable cloth. The Oil Filter Press uses oil-resistant fabrics.
