Pleated Filter Bags

pleated filter bags

At Atmax Filtration, our Pleated Filter Bags offer superior performance, extended service life, and energy-efficient operation for your dust collection systems. Designed to replace traditional filter bags and cages, these pleated bags increase filtration surface area while reducing system downtime and maintenance costs.

Key Features of Pleated Filter Bags

  • Increased Filtration Surface Area
    Pleated design delivers up to 2–3 times more surface area than standard filter bags, enabling more efficient particle capture and lower pressure drop.

  • Extended Bag Life
    Manufactured with high-strength spunbond polyester media and optional surface treatments (PTFE, anti-static, oleophobic), ensuring durability and resistance to abrasion, chemicals, and high temperatures.

  • No Cage Required
    Built-in molded end caps eliminate the need for cages, reducing installation time and mechanical wear.

  • High Dust Loading Capacity
    Engineered to handle heavy dust loads in harsh industrial environments without frequent cleaning.

  • Low Energy Consumption
    Lower pressure drop reduces fan load, resulting in improved energy efficiency and operating cost savings.

  • Customizable Lengths and Diameters
    Available in multiple configurations to fit most OEM dust collectors, including Donaldson, Camfil, and more.

Pleated Bag Solutions to Common Filtration Problems

Common Filtration ProblemPleated Bag Solution
Not Enough Filter AreaPleated bag filters provide nearly twice the filtration area within existing equipment because of their expanded pleat pack design.
High Pressure DropWith increased filter area, the air-to-media ratio decreases (at the same airflow), resulting in a lower pressure drop.
AbrasionPleated bag filters are shorter than traditional fabric bags, creating a larger dropout zone and reducing the chance of bag abrasion.
Stack DischargeUltra-Web SB combines spunbond media with nanofiber technology, capturing submicron particles and reducing stack emissions.
Short Filter LifePleated bag filters can deliver 2–3 times longer service life compared to 16 oz. polyester felt bags.
