Premium Stainless Steel Filter Cartridges for Reliable Filtration
When operating conditions rule out disposable media, a stainless steel filter cartridge delivers a permanent, fully cleanable filtration solution. Also specified as a stainless steel filter element, it is built from sintered, woven mesh, or pleated stainless steel — giving micron-level filtration with exceptional mechanical strength, high-temperature tolerance, and long service life.
Pullner is a vertically integrated stainless steel filter cartridge manufacturer and supplier, producing SS304 and SS316 elements, housings and custom assemblies — from sintered powder and multi-layer mesh cartridges to pleated and wedge-wire designs.

Understanding Stainless Steel Filtration
Stainless steel filtration relies on rigid metallic structures rather than fibrous media to control particle retention. Depending on construction, these cartridges can achieve absolute or nominal ratings from 1 to 200 microns while maintaining structural integrity under extreme pressure and temperature.
They are fully cleanable by backflushing, ultrasonic cleaning, or chemical washing. This makes stainless steel cartridges well suited to harsh environments where disposable filters would fail or require frequent replacement.
Key Benefits
- Cleanable media
- High temperature tolerance
- Extreme durability
- Long service life
Stainless Steel Filter Cartridge Applications
Stainless steel filter cartridges are specified wherever operating conditions defeat disposable media — extreme temperature, corrosive chemistry, high viscosity, or abrasive solids. Pullner cartridges serve these duties across process industries:
High-Temperature & High-Pressure Filtration
Handles steam, hot water, and harsh process conditions where polymer media fails, with all-metal construction rated to extreme temperatures.
Corrosive Media Filtration
Resists acids, alkalis, oxidizing and strong-polar liquids using SS316 and SS316L construction for chemically aggressive streams.
Viscous Liquids & Polymer Filtration
Maintains stable flow through high-viscosity fluids and macromolecule polymers where a rigid pore structure prevents collapse.
Decarburization & Sediment Removal
Removes solid particles and supports liquid decarburization with cleanable media that regenerates instead of clogging.
Industrial Water Pre-Filtration
Protects power, chemical, and municipal water systems as durable pre-filtration ahead of finer membrane stages.
Petroleum & Fuel Oil Filtration
Filters fuel oil across petroleum, chemical, marine, and aviation duty with wear-resistant, reusable elements.
Hydraulic & Pneumatic Filtration
Keeps hydraulic circuits and pneumatic systems clean under pulsing pressure with mechanically robust metal media.
Plastics & Packaging Filtration
Serves chemical fibre, plastics, films, and packaging production where consistent melt and fluid purity is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
A stainless steel filter cartridge is a reusable metal filter used to remove solid particles from liquids or gases. It’s commonly selected for durability, corrosion resistance, and use in higher-temperature or demanding industrial conditions.
Yes. Many buyers use the term stainless steel filter element when referring to the cartridge inside a housing, especially when specifying media type, micron rating, and operating conditions.
Our stainless steel filter cartridges include mesh pleated (PHSC), sintered fiber felt (PHSF), multi-layer sintered mesh (PHSW), powder-sintered (PHSP), and wedge wire (PHSV).
- Mesh (pleated): designed for strength and regeneration by backflushing (application-dependent).
- Sintered felt: larger filtration area and graded pore structure for higher dirt holding capacity.
- Sintered wire cloth (multi-layer): strong construction with uniform/homogeneous pores for stable filtration under pressure.
- Powder-sintered: depth filtration with uniform pore distribution and wide temperature range options.
- Wedge wire: strong, wear-resistant structure with uniform gaps and easy backwash for larger rigid particles.
For a cartridge filter stainless steel selection, match the micron rating to your particle removal target, flow rate, and acceptable pressure drop; micron ranges vary by cartridge type (see the specifications table on this page).
A stainless steel mesh filter cartridge is commonly selected when you need durable surface filtration and the ability to regenerate by backflushing (depending on operating conditions).
A stainless steel pleated filter cartridge is often chosen when you want more filtration area in a compact size for longer runs between cleanings.
A stainless steel sintered filter cartridge is typically chosen for demanding service where strength, stable pore structure, and cleanability are important (type-dependent).
