Instead of costly and complicated first flush filters and leaf guards, this filter catches all visible dirt and leaves at your IBC's fill port leaving virtually pure rainwater in your tank. It can be easily emptied, cleaned, and reused. The filter opening fits tightly around the 6-inch fill port. No insect will pass through it. The filter's heavy duty 200 micron rated felt material is thicker and more effective than similar nylon filters, therefore, easier to wash, rinse, and reuse.

  • EASY TO CLEAN: You can wash your felt filter sock in a laundry tub using hot water and a little bleach. Simply wring it out, let it dry, and reuse it. These felt filter socks have the ability to be reused over and over again. Don’t feel like washing the felt filter sock? No problem. Simply throw it away after it has been clogged and purchase new ones. It is recommended to purchase multiples if you do not intend to reuse them.
  • DURABLE MATERIALS: Our food-grade felt is made out of polyester which is known to be a strong and flexible fabric that dries quickly. This felt filter sock has also been designed with a carbon steel support ring and hanging strap for extra strength, security, and support. Using this type of high-quality mechanical filtration device helps to increase the overall life of your filter.
  • The 7 inch diameter steel ring at the top of the filter sock fits snuggly around the 6 inch fill cap opening at the top of most IBCs.  You could use this instead of the standard screw-on cap.
  • An effective and low-cost alternative to rainwater leaf guards and first flush filters.
