The
Pentek P5 Water Filter (Part #155014-43) is a reliable 5-micron sediment filter cartridge constructed from 100% spun polypropylene fibers to remove dirt, rust, sand, silt, and other suspended particles from water. This filter is ideal as a pre-filter to protect downstream components like carbon filters and RO membranes, or as a general point-of-use sediment filter in residential and commercial systems.
Designed with a **true gradient density**, the P5 provides excellent dirt-holding capacity and consistent performance throughout its service life. The pure polypropylene construction resists chemical attack, won’t impart taste or odor to water, and is suitable for chlorinated water supplies.
The filter fits most standard **10" x 2.5" filter housings**, making it compatible with a wide range of under-sink, whole house, RV, and marine filtration systems.
