Sediment filtration is a vital part of any water filtration process. A sediment fi ltration cartridge does just that, it removes the sediments from the water source you are trying to filter. At times preparing the water quality for the next stage in the process so that the cartridge can perform at its best and last for as long as possible.There are different types of sediment filter cartridges. We currently stock 3 of the most popular styles.
- Pleated Polyester washable
- Polyspun
- String Wound Polypropylene
All are available in a range of dimensions and micron sizes for different applications.
Polyspun Cartridges
Polyspun Sediment cartridges offer a simple means of filtration.
They are made from spun bonded polypropylene, the manufacturing technique of these cartridges results in no centre core to the filter, thus not restricting the filter performance.
The materials also provide a resilient barrier to bacterial/chemical influence – preventing any build of unwanted waste (e.g. algae).
Cartridge Information
Filter cartridge manufacturers rate cartridges in "microns". Microns are a size measurement of the pore size, so the smaller the number, the tighter the filter. One-micron filters are for drinking water only. In general, they are too tight to filter large amounts of water without slowing the flow to unacceptable levels.
Filter cartridge manufacturers also use the words "absolute" and "nominal" to describe their products' micron ratings. Absolute means absolute. Nominal means "more or less."
Sediment Cartridges Remove
- Algae
- Dirt
- Particulate matter
- Rust
- Sand
- Sediment
- Silt
Please note: Do not rely on sediment cartridges to filter untreated or unknown water sources for human consumption.
HPF 5 Micron Pleated Sediment Whole House Water Filter Replacement Cartridge 20" x 4.5"
High Performance Filtration Pleated Filters are manufactured using Virgin 100% Polypropylene Fibre. Pleated filters are best utilised where there are higher levels of sediment or dirt in the water that would usually block polypropylene spun filters prematurely.
HPF’s range of Polypropylene Pleated Filters are compatible with most liquids and are highly effective at reducing Sediment, Rust, Sand, Silt and Algae. Pleated cartridges have a much larger surface area for filtration, allowing the cartridge to have a heavier sediment load before compromising pressure or flow in a system. The increased surface area is also designed for higher flow rate systems. This allows the filter to perform exceptionally over its entire lifespan.
HPF 5 Micron Polyspun Sediment Whole House Water Filter Replacement Cartridge 20" x 4.5"
High Performance Filtration Spun Filters are manufactured using Virgin 100% Polypropylene that is blown and spun simultaneously to form the filter cartridge. This process allows the cartridge to be manufactured without using a centre core which would restrict performance. Melt blown filters also do not contain adhesives or binders so there is no chemical residual left in the filtered water.
HPF’s range of Polypropylene Spun Filters are compatible with most liquids and are highly effective at reducing Sediment, Rust, Sand, Silt and Algae. The unique weight and density structure in HPF Spun Filters enables the cartridge to have a heavier sediment load before compromising pressure or flow in a system, this allows the filter to perform exceptionally over its entire lifespan.

They deliver exceptionally low pressure drop while maintaining a high dirt holding capacity with excellent contaminant reduction capabilities.
Pure Carbon Blocks are registered in compliance with NSF/ANSI 42, 53 and 61 for several things, including VOC’s, THM’s, Lead & Heavy Metal Reduction, Chloramine Reduction & Chlorine Taste & Odour reduction. This also includes meeting standards of purity & safety of the materials used.
The technologically advanced LRC cartridge ensures that the reduction of heavy metals such as lead, arsenic, chrome, copper and many more, as well as hazardous chemicals such as chlorine are removed from your drinking water, along with a monumental amount of other VOC’s and THM's. With our ageing water supplies it is not uncommon to have elevated levels of heavy metals in our treated water supplies. These elevated levels of heavy metals combined with the different chemicals being used to treat our water supplies can have serious health effects and can also cause severe problems within our homes.
The specially formed and manufactured carbon used in the LRC cartridge make this an exceptional system that does what it's designed to do. In addition to lead and heavy metal reduction, the unique structure of the carbon block enables it to reduce Giardia, Cryptosporidium, Entamoeba and Toxoplasma cysts and fine sediment particles down to 0.5 microns.
Pure CRC 0.5 Micron Chloramine Reduction Carbon Block Whole House Water Filter Replacement Cartridge 20" x 4.5"
Pure Coconut Carbon Block Filters are made from a combination of high-performance coconut shell carbon, unique binders and industry leading manufacturing processes to deliver trade quality carbon block filters.

Pure's CRC range of Coconut Carbon filters are a market leader when it comes to the removal of monochloramine from municipal water. Boasting a 0.5uM nominal rating, this filter has a huge advantage due to the highly reactive surface area of the composite carbon designed to denature and neutralise chloramine with minimal contact time.
Free chlorine can be easily removed from water with minimal contact time, however now most municipal water supplies in Australia are using Monochloramine. Monochloramine is an ammonia bonded Chlorine molecule (NH2Cl) which is an inorganic compound. While monochloramine is noted to produce lower (but still present) levels of chlorocarbons and carbon tetrachloride levels, there are other known health risks that can be far more serious.
The addition of Chloramine to the water supply can increase exposure to lead in drinking water, especially in areas with older infrastructure. Australia has a large percentage of old buildings where this can be a serious risk. In some cases, with older buildings, it has been noted that the mixture of monochloramine and Fluorosilicic Acid can even dissolve metals such as copper pipes, causing green/blue staining in the water and damaging plumbing.
Pure CTO 5 Micron Carbon Block Whole House Water Filter Replacement Cartridge 20" x 4.5"
Pure Coconut Carbon Block Filters are made from a combination of high-performance coconut shell carbon, unique binders and industry leading manufacturing processes to deliver trade quality carbon block filters.

LPD Filters are utilised in cases that require the chemical reduction capacity of a carbon block, combined with the flow rate capacity and differential pressure drop of an impregnated Pleated Filter. The coarser micron rating of 20uM allows the filter cartridge to process a higher volume of water with as little resistance as possible. The success of this cartridge comes by way of the special combination of materials and high iodine number to provide chemical absorption you would expect from a standard CTO cartridge, while at the same time having almost 30% less media creating a thinner block wall, allowing water to flow at a higher rate with little resistance.
Water Filter Housing Thread Silicon Lubricant - 25g
Molytec Silicone Lubricant is a high-performance silicone-based, translucent non-toxic paste developed for use as a lubricant and protectant for rubber and metal. It is non-conductive, water resistant and protects against corrosion.
What Does It Do?
Water filter lubricant is vital to ensure the success of your water filter as it ages over the years.
