What oil bath filter are made of?

Thanks

Actually, I am in the process of producing oil bath filter using some kind of natural fibre. But I don't know what kind of glue should I use. Last time I used wooden glue mixed with water. It held okay though, but after we used it, then we had problems.

The problems are:
The oil goes inside the filter, then sprayed to the machine. The filter couldn't hold the pressure due to the glue that I used. It broken down.

if you have any advise for the type of glue, I will very appreciated.

Thank you.

You might have good success using boar hair matting. You can get it from Grainger, or buy a buffing pad from a janotorial supply. I think they use metal mesh for a reason, though. Probably something to do with electrostatic charges.

I think you'd make better use of your time developing a paper-catridge air filter for the N.

Thanks for the reply.
The glue is used for sticking all the fibre together.

So I summarize that the most important things in making an oil bath filter is that it has to be water resistant, oil resistant, and heat resistant.

I produce 100% natural fibre for the oil bath filter, so that there will be no other material such as metal mesh, paper, etc, this is due to the requirement of the project.

I will try to find epoxy, thanks for the tip.

FYI, I'm doing this project in South East Asia for one of the biggest Truck Manufacturer in the world. If this project is a success, we will see many natural oil bath filters replacing the current products, especially in European Countries.

I will send you couple of samples for free if you'd like.

Again, thanks for the tip, any other tips will be very much appreciated.
