- DURABLE STRING-WOUND DESIGN - Fibrous polypropylene string is precision-wound around a rigid polypropylene core for high dirt-catching capacity and strong flow rates with minimal pressure drop.
- WELL AND MUNICIPAL WATER READY - Durable 100% polypropylene media suits both well and city water and offers broad chemical compatibility for a wide range of residential, commercial, and industrial uses.
- FITS 10-INCH BIG BLUE HOUSINGS - Sized 10" x 4.5" to drop into any Big Blue or heavy duty whole house housing and replace most 10-inch sediment cartridges, handling high flow at under 5 psi at 10 gpm.
- ECONOMICAL SEDIMENT REDUCTION - An affordable string-wound solution for high-sediment water; replace every 6 months, or sooner when you notice a drop in water pressure or water quality.
This Pentek WP.5BB97P string-wound polypropylene filter cartridge reduces fine sediment, rust, and scale particles for municipal drinking water and industrial fluid applications. It has a nominal filtration rating of 0.5 micron at an efficiency of 85%. The filter is made of polypropylene fiber cord that is wound in a precise pattern on a rigid polypropylene core for greater surface area, providing a higher dirt-loading capacity than standard wound cartridges. It has an initial pressure drop of less than 5 pounds per square inch (psi) at a maximum flow rate of 10 gallons per minute (gpm), and operates over a temperature range of 40 to 165 degrees F (4.4 to 74 degrees C). This string-wound filter cartridge is for use in various applications, including drinking water purification, irrigation, and industrial processes, among others.

Water filters remove undesirable particles, chemicals, and microorganisms from water by means of a semipermeable barrier, adsorption, or biological processes. They are made of densely packed synthetic or natural fibers that trap suspended particles, materials that block microbes or adsorb unwanted chemicals, or substances that cause a chemical change, such as acid neutralization. For most residential, commercial, and industrial applications, water filters are manufactured in the form of replaceable cartridges that fit inside permanent housings. Filtration systems typically consist of a series of two or more types of filters, each designed to remove different contaminants. The performance of filters is measured by the minimum particle size that is blocked, the percentage of particles or microorganisms that are removed, the downstream concentration of unwanted chemicals, the maximum flow rate, and the amount of water that can be filtered before the filter must be replaced. Water filters are used in a wide range of applications, including drinking water purification, swimming pools, industrial processes, and irrigation, among others.
