Polymer Leaf Disc Filter is used for filtering polymer melt for film, fiber and engineering resins in stacked leaf disc filters that pack large filter area into a compact housing. Custom to filter housing is the reference cited for it on drawings, datasheets and purchase orders.
What Custom to filter housing Means for Polymer Leaf Disc Filter
The dimensions in the table below are supplied to suit Custom to filter housing. Where the standard sets requirements for the finished appliance, device or system, compliance testing of that assembly stays with its manufacturer; we supply the metal mesh part to the drawing and can provide material certificates and dimensional reports with the shipment.

Specifying Polymer Leaf Disc Filter Beyond the Standard
- Disc size: 7, 10 or 12 in diameter with the housing hub size.
- Micron rating: 3–40 µm; finer for optical film.
- Media: Sintered fiber felt for depth; dutch weave for surface filtration.
When Polymer Leaf Disc Filter Is Not the Right Choice
Not for low-viscosity liquids where cartridges are simpler.
