Pleated filters versus socks
Pleated filters versus socks
(OP)
I generally have had the best experience with sock filters proceeded by a duplex strainer. A sock can get down to 0.5 micron and a strainer can go to 37 microns. What do you think? Which is better, sock or cartridge?

Cartridge filters are more expensive, but will allow higher capacity, more predictable performance, and longer filter runs because of in-depth filtration.
Both bag filters and cartridge filters are only suitable for low solids polishing applications. Otherwise, the performance will suffer.
