Popular Flex Products

The Flex filtration range encompasses various solutions for different applications and extraction systems. Main filters provide the primary defence against dust and debris, featuring robust construction and high-capacity filter media. Pre-filters extend the life of your main filtration system by capturing larger particles before they reach the primary filter element. For applications requiring the highest level of air purity, Flex HEPA filters capture 99.97% of particles down to 0.3 microns, essential when working with hazardous materials or in sensitive environments.

Flex also offers specialist filter bags and fleece filters designed for specific materials and working conditions, ensuring you have the right filtration solution whatever your trade or project demands.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I replace my Flex filter?

Replacement frequency depends on usage intensity and the materials you're extracting. As a general rule, inspect filters regularly and replace when you notice reduced suction power or visible damage. Heavy daily use may require replacement every few months, whilst occasional users might achieve 12 months or more of service life.

Can I clean and reuse Flex filters?

Many Flex filters can be cleaned to extend their service life. Fleece and fabric filters can typically be tapped or gently brushed to remove accumulated dust. However, HEPA filters and heavily contaminated filters should be replaced rather than cleaned to maintain optimal performance and safety standards.

Are Flex filters compatible with other brands of extractors?

Flex filters are specifically engineered for Flex extraction systems to ensure perfect fitment and optimal performance. Using genuine Flex filters guarantees compatibility and maintains your equipment warranty. Always check your extractor model specifications before purchasing replacement filters.
