Custom Fabric Filter Bags & Sleeves
American Fabric Filter Co. manufactures a nearly unlimited range of fabric products such as optimized air filtration/dust containment bags and sleeves in any shape and size. We customize products with inlets, outlets, flanges, support hardware, windows and other options located and sized according to your needs.
The optimized filter bag shown here has four loops on top to suspend it from above and was designed to fit over a 1.5 hp collector.
Limited space, high temperatures, static cling and sticky or abrasive products? Saw dust, cement dust, flour dust or chemical dust?
With dozens of fabrics and finishes to choose from, design solutions are limited only by available space and imagination. Our sales specialists satisfy countless unusual and demanding needs.
We also combine products like gum rubber tubing with canvas jackets for Pressure Sleeves, and can be your source for hard-to-find hardware and accessories.

Woodworkers require a highly effective dust management system. You hope your dust collector provides maximum vacuum to gather up everything from large chips to fine sanding dust, with maximum filtration to return clean air back to the environment.
While all dust collectors do something, many do neither of the above very well.
AMERICAN FABRIC FILTER CO. has spent nearly 20 years designing and fabricating optimized custom dust bags and sleeves to go on collectors ranging from 1/3 HP drum top hobbyist units to 100+ HP factory bag house systems. We talk to every customer to determine what equipment, plenums, etc. they have, how it fits in their workspace and their specific filtration needs. We make recommendations -- and mutually determine what to make.
A small collector`s performance can improve dramatically with increased filter area. Hobbyists may only require a slightly larger, light duty filter. Commercial shops need larger filters with thicker fabrics. Optionally, we make these with hanging loops, inlets for any size, shape or location, skirts, belt loops and many more add-ins. Sometimes we need to add extra "sister" bags to get the proper airflow without back pressure.
Baghouse systems benefit from replacement dust bags or sleeves made with new fabrics engineered to pass more air while blocking fine dust.
AMERICAN FABRIC FILTER CO. began making breather/filter bags and transfer sleeves to use with it`s own CS-1 Sifter nearly 20 years ago.
With many FDA-approved fabrics to work with, we now make products from tiny vent socks to entire silo covers. We can duplicate, and often improve, the filters you currently use. Added details such as a more convenient hanging tab with grommet, or bungee cord in the hem may make filter replacement faster and more efficient.
In addition to venting and filtering, AFF provides custom fabric & rubber transfer and pressure sleeves; catch cloths; corrugated rubber "boots"; Morris couplings, site glass and ductwork, large and small sifters along with replacement flat and reel screens, and many vital accessories.
Industrial requirements can vary widely - from one tiny filter or sleeve to a mass of filters to a giant single-use dust bag.
If a dust collector has been under-maintained for years, you may have gradually grown used to reduced suction and breathing dangerous dust. AMERICAN FABRIC FILTER CO. can optimize your system with custom dust bags and sleeves of any shape or size based on your description or sample. We use a wide selection of fabrics and can make filters for both new and discontinued equipment.
