High-performance bag filters for dust separators and bag filter systems for the American market

For applications where pleated bag filters are not optimal, our range of materials, collar designs and filter sizes are suitable for most baghouse manufacturers.

High-performance bag filters for demanding applications

Hengst develops and produces high-performance bag filter solutions for applications where maximum efficiency and reliability are crucial.

Our bag filters are made from high-quality, carefully selected materials and impress with their proven performance - even under demanding chemical, abrasive and thermal conditions.

The result: durable, robust filter solutions that can withstand even the most demanding requirements over the long term.

Different types of high-performance bag filters

In order to reliably withstand even extreme operating conditions, we rely on a carefully defined selection process for our filter media. Different material solutions are used depending on the application and process requirements:

  • Polyester felts

  • Homopolymer or copolymer acrylic

  • Aramid (NOMEX)

  • polyamide

  • polypropylene

  • PTFE / ePTFE

  • Polyphenylene sulphide (PPS)

In addition, we offer a wide selection of surface treatments and media-specific designs to optimally match filtration performance, service life and cleaning behavior to your requirements.

For maximum flexibility, various connection variants are available in the upper and lower range - for seamless integration into existing systems and a wide range of industrial applications.

Flexible configurations for maximum adaptability

Our filter bags are available in different versions to ensure optimum integration into your systems and processes:

  • Various topside options: Snap-on strap, raw top or felt ring

  • Sleeve with hem: For secure fastening using clamps

  • Different base designs: Closed bottom (disk) or flat sewn bottom

  • Open on both sides: For special applications with flow from above and below

In this way, we ensure that every solution is precisely tailored to your technical requirements.

The main features

Vertically integrated production
From the fiber to the finished filter product, we control every single production step ourselves. This guarantees the highest quality standards, maximum transparency and consistent performance.

Tailor-made solutions
Our sales and technical experts work with you to develop tailor-made solutions for your specific application requirements - with the clear aim of optimally coordinating performance, efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Reinforced seams for extreme conditions
Our filter bags are designed for the most demanding environments. Reinforced seams and a robust thread composition ensure exceptional stability, high mechanical resilience and a significantly longer service life.

Not all bag filters are the same

Hengst stands for sophisticated bag filter solutions that clearly differentiate themselves in terms of design, manufacturing technology and performance level.

Our high-performance bag filters made of high-quality standard polyester and ePTFE are specially designed for demanding operating conditions. They impress with their high mechanical stability and reliable filtration performance - even under intensive use.

The HE high-performance bag filters are manufactured using our innovative hydroentanglement (HE) process. In this process, the fibers are precisely intertwined and compacted with the help of water. This creates a particularly homogeneous filter medium with noticeable benefits:

  • Finer, evenly distributed pore structure
  • More efficient surface filtration for improved dust separation
  • Optimized cleaning behaviour for longer service life and constant performance

The result: high-performance filters that combine maximum efficiency, process stability and cost-effectiveness - even under challenging operating conditions.

Longer service life. Lower costs. Higher efficiency.

These and other performance features help to significantly extend the service life of our bag filters - before critical differential pressures are reached and replacement becomes necessary.

Conventional polyester filter bags are usually manufactured using the needle felt process. This creates comparatively larger pore structures, which facilitate the penetration of dust particles. The dust settles inside the medium, which leads to a faster increase in pressure and a shorter service life.

The HE high-performance bag filters from Hengst Filtration, on the other hand, are based on an optimized material structure that enables more effective surface filtration. As a result, the dust remains more on the surface, the cleaning behavior is improved and the pressure increase is significantly slower.

The result:

  • Significantly longer service life
  • Reduced maintenance and downtime costs
  • Sustainably improved dust separation
  • Greater process stability

With our HE solutions, you can raise the performance of your bag filter systems to a new level - economically and technically.
