Parker WC11R10A String-wound Cartridge Filter 50 Micron

Product Description

The PARKER WC11R10A is a string-wound plumbing cartridge filter designed for sediment removal in residential and light commercial water filtration systems. Constructed from acetate cotton wound over a polypropylene plastic core, this cartridge delivers a 50 micron filtration rating, capturing sand, silt, rust particles, and other suspended solids before they reach downstream equipment. The cartridge measures 2.5 inches in outside diameter and 10 inches in length, fitting standard single-cartridge filter housings common in potable water and process water applications. Plumbers and water treatment technicians install this filter as part of whole-house or point-of-entry filtration setups.

This cartridge is suited for residential whole-house pre-filtration, well water systems, and light commercial water treatment where moderate sediment loads are present. The 50 micron rating positions it as a pre-filter ahead of finer-grade cartridges or UV systems, extending the service life of downstream components. The acetate cotton construction provides consistent flow-through performance within its rated temperature range. It fits standard 10 inch filter housings with a 2.5 inch cartridge opening, which are widely used across plumbing and water conditioning installations.
