UTA Features:
Patented dual-barbed top seals into resilient snapband cuff, or EPDM gasket, virtually eliminating leakage experienced with other metal top designs.
Flange-style top allows immediate visual verification of positive fit of top and cuff in tubesheet hole.
Elimination of metal top allows pleat depth to be maximized to the specific tubesheet hole size. On average, 10% to 15% additional filter area is gained compared to conventional metal top pleated filter elements.
