10006133 - Diversitech 24x24x4 Pleated Pre-Filter MERV 8

Protect Your Lungs and Your Equipment

Welding and grinding kick up a lot of dust, and your fume extractor is there to keep that stuff out of your lungs. But what keeps the extractor running? The Diversitech 10006133 Pre-Filter. This 24x24x4 pleated filter acts like a shield for your machine's main filter cartridge. It catches the heavy stuff—grinding sparks, big dust bunnies, and coarse metal particles—so your expensive main filter doesn't get clogged up prematurely. Think of it as the oil filter for your fume extractor; changing it regularly keeps the whole system running smoothly and saves you money in the long run.

This isn't just a piece of cardboard; it's a heavy-duty industrial filter built to handle the shop environment. The frame is tough and won't collapse under suction, and the pleated design means it has a ton of surface area to trap dirt without choking off the airflow. Maintaining good airflow is huge—if your filter is clogged, your smoke eater isn't eating smoke, and you're breathing it in. Swapping this filter out is quick and easy, getting you back to welding in minutes.

Why use the 10006133?

• Saves Money: A main filter cartridge can cost hundreds. This pre-filter costs a fraction of that and makes the main one last way longer.
• Better Suction: A clean pre-filter means your machine breathes easier, giving you better suction at the hood.
• Easy Maintenance: No tools usually required. Just slide the old one out and the new one in.

Don't let a clogged machine ruin your welds or your health. Keep a stack of these Diversitech pre-filters on hand and change them whenever they look dirty or your suction starts to drop.
