Parker WC11R10S Cartridge Filter 50 Micron 10 Inch

Product Description

The PARKER WC11R10S is a string-wound plumbing cartridge filter designed for sediment removal in water filtration systems. It measures 10 inches in length with a 2.5-inch outside diameter and delivers a 50-micron filtration rating, making it effective for capturing sand, silt, rust, and other particulate matter. The filter body is constructed from acetate cotton with a stainless steel core for structural integrity under flow and pressure. Rated for operation up to 250 degrees F, this cartridge suits both cold and hot water applications. Licensed plumbers and water treatment technicians are the primary installers for this type of filter cartridge.

This cartridge filter is used in residential and light commercial plumbing water treatment systems where sediment control is required upstream of fixtures, appliances, or finer-stage filtration equipment. Typical installations include whole-house filter housings, point-of-entry systems, and process water lines. The 50-micron rating targets coarse to medium sediment loads, making it a common first-stage filter in multi-stage setups. The acetate cotton string-wound construction provides graduated density filtration, which helps extend service life between replacements.
