Name: SO-SAFE 10" 0.5MIC Wound Sediment Cartridge
SKU: 22669
Availability: InStock

Key Features

Super‑fine 0.5 micron filtration for capturing extremely fine sediment, particulate matter and debris from water.
String‑wound polypropylene construction creates depth filtration media that traps particles throughout the cartridge, not just on the surface.
Standard 10″ size designed to fit most common 10″ water filter housings and RO systems.
Highly effective pre‑filter stage that protects downstream filters (e.g., carbon or RO membranes) by removing ultra‑fine particles early.
Ideal for residential and commercial water filtration in homes, offices, and light industrial setups.
Easy to install and replace — slip into any compatible 10″ filter housing with minimal effort.
Improves water clarity and quality by significantly reducing haze and turbidity before further treatment.
Made from chemically resistant, inert materials suitable for potable water applications.

Product Description

The SO‑SAFE 10″ 0.5 MIC Wound Sediment Cartridge is a high‑performance water filter element designed to serve as the first line of defense in residential, commercial, and light industrial water filtration systems. Its 0.5 micron nominal rating means it can capture extremely fine suspended particles — including very small sediment, rust, silt and other impurities that standard filters might miss.

This cartridge uses a string‑wound depth filtration design, where polypropylene yarn is tightly wound around a central core. As water flows through the cartridge, particles are trapped throughout the entire depth of the media, not just on the surface, giving the cartridge a high dirt‑holding capacity and longer service life before replacement.

The 10‑inch standard size fits most common filter housings used in under‑sink systems, reverse osmosis (RO) pre‑filters, wholehouse sediment stages, or any setup requiring fine sediment removal before further purification steps. Its polypropylene construction is chemically resistant and safe for potable water use, helping protect downstream components such as carbon blocks, RO membranes, UV sterilizers, pumps and plumbing from premature fouling or damage.

By removing ultra‑fine particles that contribute to cloudiness, turbidity, and early filter clogging, the SO‑SAFE 10″ 0.5 MIC Wound Sediment Cartridge helps improve overall water quality, extend the life of finer filters, and maintain better system performance with consistent flow rates and reduced maintenance needs.

Typical applications include pre‑filtration for drinking water systems, RO systems, point‑of‑entry (whole house) filtration, well water treatment, and industrial feed water filtration where very fine sediment control is required for reliable downstream performance.
