Parker 23R10A Cartridge Filter 5 Micron 10 Inch Cotton

Product Description

The PARKER 23R10A is a string-wound cotton cartridge filter designed for residential and light commercial water filtration systems. It measures 10 inches in length with a 2.5-inch outside diameter and delivers 5-micron filtration, making it effective at capturing sediment, rust particles, sand, and other fine debris from potable water lines. The cotton string-wound construction is FDA-grade material, suitable for applications where food-grade compliance is required. The polypropylene plastic core provides structural rigidity under working pressure. Plumbers and water treatment technicians install this filter as a point-of-entry or point-of-use sediment stage in standard filter housings.

This cartridge is suited for use in residential whole-house filter systems, under-sink pre-filter stages, and light commercial water conditioning setups where sediment removal is the primary goal. The 5-micron rating targets fine particulates that can damage downstream equipment such as pressure regulators, valves, and water heaters. It fits standard 10-inch filter housings commonly found in sump-style and Big Blue configurations. Installation is straightforward for licensed plumbers or water treatment professionals servicing residential and small commercial accounts.
