ZAE Series
Synthetic Spin-On Hydraulic Filter Elements: 1-12 Thread, High Capacity
FOR USE WITH ZAF05 ZAF07 ZAF10 SERIES FILTER HEADS
The ZAE Series spin-on filter elements combine robust synthetic media with a standard 1-12 mounting thread to deliver superior filtration efficiency and extended service life. With a 3.8 inch diameter and a 250 PSI maximum operating pressure, these elements are designed for precise hydraulic applications requiring reliable contamination control. Compatible with ZAF filter heads, the ZAE Series is ideal for demanding conditions where high performance is a must.

Zinga Filter Media Types
Z-Glass Media
Multi-Layered, non-woven glass media that provides the highest levels of depth filtration efficiency and capacity. Higher capacity means longer service life. Coupled with a steel support mesh, Z-Glass can withstand higher differential pressures.
Cellulose Media
Traditional paper based media that provides a nominal level of depth filtration and capacity. Used with petroleum-based fluids only. Some grades of cellulose include a layered glass fiber substrate to provide more efficiency.
AquaZorb Media
Water absorbing cellulose based media designed specifically to absorb and retain free water from petroleum-based fluids. Commonly used in offline systems, AquaZorb will operate until it is fully saturated and ultimately curtail flow through the media. A system by-pass valve and service gauge is recommended when using AquaZorb.
Stainless Steel Mesh
Woven in a variety of precision patterns, stainless steel mesh provides a basic surface type filtration with very low differential pressure. Applications include pump protection and “last chance” valve protection. Stainless steel mesh can be serviced by ultrasonic cleaning. (30: 560µ, 60: 280µ, 100: 141µ, 200:75µ, 200×1400: 10µ)
