Trap-Rite

Strainrite continues its tradition of state-of-the-art advanced filtration innovation with the Trap-Rite. A unique polypropylene depth filter, that utilizes long strand small and large diameter fibers to provide a high solids loading, absolute-rated, pleated depth filter. This binder-free depth media is excellent for removing filter aid particles from bright beer. Trap-Rite also offers more than twice the surface area compared with industry standard non-pleated depth filters. The increased surface area provides higher flow rates at reduced pressure, resulting in increased filter life.
