Filter Cage RFQ Fields When Cage Matching Is Needed

For dust collector projects, include cage diameter, cage length, wire count, ring spacing, top style, bottom style, venturi requirement, and tube sheet hole information. Photos of the cage top, bottom, venturi, and tube sheet help confirm fit.

Custom and Replacement Filter Bag RFQ Fields

For replacement projects without drawings, send the old bag photos, flat width, total length, top and bottom close-ups, cage photos, equipment model, and any nameplate information. For custom bags, add expected material, finish, seam, thread, ring, label, packing, and documentation requirements if applicable.

Photos, Drawings, and Samples

Clear photos reduce quotation errors. Send a full bag photo, top construction photo, bottom construction photo, flat width or diameter photo, length photo, cage photo if used, and equipment nameplate if available. If the old bag is damaged, photograph both the damage and any intact sealing areas.

Common Quotation Mistakes To Avoid

  • Sending only a product name without dimensions.
  • Mixing diameter and flat width without labeling the value.
  • Forgetting top and bottom construction photos.
  • Requesting material only by color instead of media type or application.
  • Missing temperature, dust or liquid type, quantity, and delivery country.
  • Sending unclear photos without a measuring tape or reference point.
