25 Sq. Ft. Pleated Filter Cartridge for OceanClear & Nuclear Canister Filters

25 Sq. Ft. Pleated Filter Cartridge for OceanClear & Nuclear Canister Filters

Overview

Upgrade or replace worn media with this 25 square foot pleated cartridge designed for high-capacity mechanical filtration in OceanClear and Nuclear-style canister filters. The rigid core and tightly pleated polyester provide a large surface area to capture fine debris while maintaining strong, consistent flow. Ideal for freshwater or marine systems where water clarity and polish are a priority.

Key Features

• High Surface Area (25 sq. ft.) – Deep pleats maximize particle capture without excessive pressure drop.

• Durable Construction – Rigid center core resists collapse; heat-set pleats hold shape through repeated cleanings.

• Reliable Water Polishing – Traps suspended particulates to improve clarity in heavily stocked or high-flow systems.

• Easy Maintenance – Hose-rinse to restore flow; pleated design extends service life between changeouts.

• Freshwater & Marine Safe – Inert materials suitable for aquariums, ponds, and recirculating systems.

• Direct Fit – Sized for canisters that specify a 25 sq. ft. pleated element (OceanClear & Nuclear types).
