IPW Industries Inc Pack of 3 Watts (WPC5-975) 9.75"X2.75" 5 Micron Pleated Sediment Filter
Watts WPC5-975 Pleated Sediment Filter
100% synthetic, washable pleated cartridge engineered for extended service life and superior sediment capture in residential and whole-house applications
This three-pack of Watts WPC5-975 pleated sediment filters delivers professional-grade performance without the limitations of traditional depth cartridges. Each 9.75" x 2.75" cartridge features 5 micron synthetic polypropylene pleats that maximize surface area, reduce pressure drop, and extend service intervals between changeouts. Unlike wound or spun filters, these cartridges contain no binders or additives that degrade over time.

Why Pleated Outperforms Depth Filtration
Washable and Reusable
Rinse pleats with directed spray to dislodge sediment and restore flow for 5 micron and coarser applications, reducing replacement costs and waste
Greater Surface Area
Pleated design increases effective filtration area compared to wound or spun cartridges, maximizing dirt-holding capacity and service life
Lower Pressure Drop
Open pleat geometry maintains higher flow rates and lower initial pressure loss, reducing strain on pumps and system components
No Binders or Additives
100% synthetic polypropylene construction contains no adhesives or resins that can break down, cause foaming, or degrade filter integrity
Individually Wrapped
Each cartridge is sealed for purity and protection during storage, ensuring clean installation every time
Standard Sizing
Fits all standard 10" x 2.5" filter housings with 1-1/6" ID, making it a direct replacement for most residential and commercial applications
Where This Filter Fits
The Watts WPC5-975 is engineered for use in reverse osmosis pre-filtration stages, whole-house sediment filtration systems, and point-of-use applications requiring standard 10" x 2.5" cartridges. Compatible with IPW Industries, Watts, and other manufacturers' housings accepting 9.75" length filters with molded end caps. Ideal for municipal and well water systems where sand, silt, rust, and particulate sediment need removal before carbon filtration, RO membranes, or appliances.
IPW Industries stands behind every Watts-branded cartridge with rigorous quality control and material consistency you can rely on for year-round water quality.
