Two stages named, and no capacity figure to run them against

BACHGOLD two-stage replacement element for the maker's Squeeze filter, 0.2 micron stated

A two-stage element for the maker's Squeeze filter — and a different housing from the Selfpress bottle reviewed on this site, which is exactly the distinction this hub exists to keep.

  • Names both stages rather than calling the element a filter — an electro-adsorptive nanofibre layer and a hollow-fibre membrane, in that order
  • Publishes a pore rating flat at 0.2 micron, with no hedge in front of the number
  • No rated capacity at all, which is the figure that turns a cartridge price into a cost per litre

Best for: Owners of the maker's Squeeze filter who want the original element rather than a look-alike.

What this listing puts on record

An original replacement element for the maker’s Squeeze outdoor filter, a two-stage system combining electro-adsorptive nanofibre technology with a 0.2 micron hollow-fibre membrane, an intended use of fresh water sources, a recommendation to pre-filter heavily sedimented water, and a change described as quick.

The stages are named, which is unusual here

Electro-adsorptive nanofibre, then hollow fibre at 0.2 micron. Most spare elements on this shelf are sold as a filter and left at that. Naming the two media in order tells you what the element is built from, and it puts a number on the second stage.

Read the number against the shelf: of the three cartridges here that publish a pore rating, this is the coarsest, with 0.1 and 0.01 micron published elsewhere.

The figure that would price it is absent

No capacity in litres, and no service interval. Cartridge life is what turns a purchase into a running cost, and this listing gives neither a litre count nor a number of months. Four of the seven cartridges here publish a capacity; this one does not.

The housing question, carefully

The listing names the Squeeze. The BACHGOLD filter reviewed on this site is the Selfpress, a 500 ml press bottle. Same maker, two bodies, and visual similarity between filter housings means nothing at the seal. That is why this page carries no link to the bottle review: the maker has not said the two go together, and this site does not fill in that kind of blank.

Whose claims these are

The bullets state figures for viruses and name bacteria, protozoa and microplastics, on the basis of laboratory testing the maker cites. All of it keeps its author here: the maker states 99.99 % of viruses, along with the other categories it names. This page makes no statement about what the filtered water may be used for. The maker’s instructions and the local authority wherever you fill are what govern that.

Before ordering

Write down the name printed on your own filter body first. On this shelf a cartridge is bought by housing name, because not one of the seven here publishes a thread standard to buy it by instead.

    • Publishes two capacities separately, one per element, instead of one figure for the whole pack — the highest rated capacity of the seven cartridges here at 4000 litres on the UF element
    • States the change interval in months as well as in litres, which is the pair that actually schedules a swap
    • No thread standard, so it is bought by bottle name only
