The high-capacity construction delivers 2–3× the dust-holding capacity of standard 1″ pleats while maintaining low pressure drop, so facilities running RTUs and AHUs get significantly extended service intervals at the same MERV 8 baseline efficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMERV 8\u003c\/strong\u003e efficiency, tested per ASHRAE 52.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e2″ and 4″ depths\u003c\/strong\u003e — drop-in replacement for most commercial racks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-supported pleat pack\u003c\/strong\u003e — no expanded metal grid, lighter weight, fully incinerable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBeverage-board frame\u003c\/strong\u003e with moisture-resistant coating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUL 900 Classified\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy HC Over Standard Capacity\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStandard-capacity 1″ pleats have a finite media area.
