Galvanized steel filter bag cages are essential structural components in dust collector systems, serving as the internal framework that supports filter bags during the filtration process. The galvanization—either through hot-dip galvanizing or electro-galvanizing—provides a protective zinc coating, which significantly enhances the cage’s corrosion resistance, extends its service life, and prevents rust formation even in humid or chemically active environments.
Galvanized filter bag cages are widely used in industrial dust collection systems, especially in environments where cost-efficiency, moderate corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength are prioritized. Common application scenarios include:
These cages are often paired with polyester, acrylic, or aramid filter bags depending on the specific temperature and chemical exposure conditions.
Feature | Benefit |
