Silicone Coated Dust Bag Cages

Silicone coated dust bag cages are enhanced versions of standard filter bag cages, designed specifically for use in harsh industrial environments. By applying a special silicone coating on the surface of carbon steel or galvanized cages, the product achieves exceptional performance in terms of corrosion resistance, heat resistance, and abrasion resistance.

This innovative coating enables the cages to withstand aggressive flue gases and high-temperature conditions, making them particularly suitable for desulfurization systems and dust removal equipment in power plants. In many cases, silicone coated cages can even serve as a cost-effective alternative to stainless steel filter bag cages.

Application Scenarios

Silicone coated cages are engineered for use in demanding filtration environments where traditional cages fail due to corrosion or thermal degradation. They are especially beneficial in:

  • Thermal power plants – flue gas desulfurization (FGD) systems
  • Waste-to-energy plants – high-sulfur and acidic dust environments
  • Chemical plants – dusty gas streams with corrosive vapors
  • Cement kilns and smelting operations – intermittent high-temperature emissions
  • Glass and ceramics industry – fine particle collection under elevated heat

These cages are generally matched with PTFE, P84, or fiberglass filter bags to withstand aggressive operating conditions.

Silicone Coated Dust Bag Cages offer a robust, economical, and high-performance solution for dust filtration systems operating under corrosive and thermal stress. By providing extended life and resistance to rust, they significantly reduce the maintenance costs and improve the overall efficiency of dust collection systems—particularly in power generation and chemical industries.

If you’re looking to replace stainless steel cages without compromising performance, silicone coated cages are the ideal alternative.
