SlyMax
SlyMax is a True Duo-Denier Felt.
Benefits of SlyMax Duo-Density Polyester Felt
If you need a better efficiency than the standard 16 oz. Polyester will provide, but we don’t need the ultra-high efficiency of SlyHe (High Efficiency) or a PTFE membrane bag (SlyTex). Try our 16 or 18-oz. /yd2 duo-density polyester felt (SlyMax). You may reach the efficiency you need, and not have to spend a lot more on your filters. SlyMax is a true duo-denier felt with a finer denier fiber blend on the surface or collection side of the felt and a larger denier fiber on the inside. The two different-sized fibers are separated and supported by a scrim in the middle, unlike many of our competitor’s unsupported felts, which are produced in a single process that makes the fibers a homogeneous blend.
- The SlyMax has a scrim support, which provides dimensional stability, and a densified central core, which improves filtration efficiency by minimizing dust migration through the felt.
- SlyMax duo-density polyester is a true 16 oz. /yd2 weight felt versus the majority of commodity unsupported felts, which are actually targeted and manufactured to be 15.5 oz./yd2 or even 15 oz./yd2 in weight.
