Build a bag
specification.

Two media are stocked and priced online — polypropylene needlefelt and nylon monofilament mesh, sizes 1 to 4. Everything else is made to order. Work through the choices below, give us a quantity, and we quote it.

1 — Bag size

Sizes 1 to 4 are the standard bags and the ones our housings take. Size 5 and anything outside the chart is made to order.

2 — Media

The fluid, the temperature and whether you want depth or a hard cut point decide this. Two are stocked; the rest are made to order.

3 — Micron rating

Start at the coarsest rating that does the job. Finer than you need means shorter runs and more change-outs.

4 — Collar

How the bag seats. Plastic where no metal may touch the product, steel for hot or aggressive duty.

5 — Handles

Handles let an operator lift a heavy wet bag straight out without reaching into the basket.

6 — Seam

Welded felt has no needle holes for solids to pass through. Woven mesh is sewn and bound.

7 — Surface finish

Felt only. Singed is standard; glazed releases cake more easily and sheds less fibre.

8 — Special requirements

Pick any that apply. Each one may change the media, the lead time or both.

9 — Quantity

How many bags in this order. Type any number, or use a button. Tell us your annual usage in the form as well — a forecast prices better than a one-off.

Send this for a quote

We do not price made-to-order bags on the website. You get a firm figure, a lead time and a freight cost by return, and nothing is charged until you approve it.

Reading the code

What the specification code means

Every bag we quote carries a code that describes it in full. Quote it back and there is no ambiguity about what you are reordering.

So MFB-S2-PP-25-P is a size 2 polypropylene needlefelt bag, 25 micron, polypropylene snap ring, no handles, singed. That one is in stock. MFB-S2-PTM-10-S6H is a PTFE membrane bag on a 316 stainless ring with handles — made to order.

Send the specification

Everything you picked above is attached to this form automatically — size, media, micron, collar, handles, seam, finish, special requirements and quantity. You get a reference number on screen as soon as it sends.

Not sure of the specification? Photograph the bag collar and the housing nameplate and attach them. Those two usually identify a bag outright, including bags you buy from someone else now.

What we need to price it

Quantity is the biggest lever on the price, so give us a realistic annual figure if there is one. For made-to-order media, the liquid, the temperature and the pH decide whether the media you picked is the right one — tell us and we will say so if it is not.

Business details — ABN, address optional, but it lets us quote freight and trade terms

We reply within one business day with a firm price, a lead time and freight. Stocked bags you can buy straight from the size pages without waiting. We use what you enter here to answer your enquiry and prepare a quotation, and share it only with the service providers who help us do that, some of them outside Australia. Privacy Policy.
