Boshart 14-GSWP1-05 10" 5 Micron Polypropylene String-Wound Filter Cartridge

The Boshart 14-GSWP1-05 is a 10" string-wound sediment filter cartridge manufactured from FDA grade polypropylene, rated at a 5 micron filtration level. Built for plumbers and water treatment contractors installing whole-house or point-of-use filtration ahead of pumps, fixtures, and appliances, this cartridge is suitable for potable water filtration at ambient temperatures. It is manufactured by diagonally winding a precise pattern of selected polypropylene fibers around a center core, creating hundreds of tapered, spiral passageways engineered to trap sediment throughout the entire depth of the cartridge rather than just on the surface.

Key Features

  • Trade Size: 10" giant-format cartridge for standard filter housings sized to accept this length.
  • Micron Rating: 5 micron construction removes very fine sediment while still handling coarser particulate loads.
  • Durable Construction: FDA grade polypropylene fiber construction suitable for potable water filtration applications.
  • String-Wound Media: Diagonally wound fiber pattern on a center core creates tapered spiral passageways that lock in contaminants layer by layer during manufacturing.
  • Depth Filtration: Filtration occurs throughout the entire cartridge body, not just at the surface, allowing large amounts of contaminant to be trapped without the sudden pressure rise caused by surface blinding.
  • Engineered Micron Control: The wind pattern is varied during manufacturing to fabricate cartridges to a pre-determined, consistent micron rating.
  • Packaging: Supplied 8 per case for stocking distributors and contractors servicing multiple installations.

Technical Specifications

  • Country of Origin: Canada
  • Packaging: 8 ea

Typical Applications

  • Whole-House Sediment Filtration
  • Potable Water Filtration Systems
  • Pre-Filtration Ahead of Water Softeners and Reverse Osmosis Systems
  • Well Water and Municipal Water Sediment Removal
  • Residential and Commercial Filter Housings

Why Boshart?

Boshart string-wound cartridges are manufactured from FDA grade polypropylene using a precise diagonal winding process that locks fibers in place layer by layer, producing a consistent, pre-determined micron rating from cartridge to cartridge. Because filtration takes place through the full depth of the media rather than only at the surface, these cartridges are built to trap heavier contaminant loads before pressure rises from surface blinding, giving contractors a dependable, potable-water-suitable sediment filter for rough-in and retrofit filtration work.

Boshart 14-GSWP1-05 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What micron ratings does the Boshart 14-GSWP1 string-wound cartridge come in?
Two: 5 micron (part 14-GSWP1-05) and 25 micron (part 14-GSWP1-25), both in the 10 inch length. Pick 5 micron when you need to catch very fine silt ahead of an RO unit or fixtures; go 25 micron on dirty well water where a tight cartridge would load up too fast and you want longer run time between changes.
2) Will a Boshart 14-GSWP1 cartridge fit my standard 10 inch filter housing?
It is a 10 inch cartridge built for standard filter housings sized to accept that length, so a common residential or commercial 10 inch sump takes it. Boshart describes it as a giant-format 10 inch, so confirm your housing is the large-diameter big-blue style rather than a slim-line sump before ordering.
3) Is this Boshart cartridge safe for drinking water?
The 14-GSWP1 is wound from FDA grade polypropylene and is suitable for potable water filtration at ambient temperatures. That covers whole-house and point-of-use work on well or municipal supply. It is not a hot-water cartridge.
4) String-wound or pleated sediment cartridge, which should I use on well water?
String-wound is the depth-filtration choice. The Boshart 14-GSWP1 is made by diagonally winding polypropylene fiber around a center core, forming tapered spiral passageways that trap sediment through the full thickness of the media instead of only at the face. That holds a heavier dirt load before pressure drop climbs, which is what you want on sandy or silty well water. A pleated surface cartridge blinds off at the surface sooner under that kind of load, though it can be rinsed and reused in some applications. On heavy sediment, many contractors run the 25 micron wound cartridge first and a finer stage behind it.
5) Can I use this ahead of a water softener or RO system?
Yes, pre-filtration ahead of softeners and reverse osmosis is one of its stated uses, along with pump and appliance protection. Running sediment out before the softener bed or RO membrane is what keeps those from fouling early. Use the 5 micron version in front of an RO membrane.
6) How many Boshart 14-GSWP1 cartridges come in a case?
Packed 8 per case, which suits a distributor stocking shelf or a service contractor carrying spares for multiple filter housings on a route.
7) Does the micron rating stay consistent between cartridges?
It does. The wind pattern is varied during manufacturing to build each cartridge to a pre-determined micron rating, so a case of 5 micron units filters the same as the one you pulled out. That repeatability is the reason string-wound holds up in maintained systems where someone else changes the element next time.
8) Where is the Boshart 14-GSWP1 filter cartridge made?
Canada. That matters on public and institutional jobs where country of origin has to be declared on the submittal.
