Binks AF filter is an accordion-style pleated filter that captures overspray efficiently, so spray booth exhaust air is filtered while paint is being applied. This AF filter has a size of 3 feet by 30 feet, providing a continuous length that can span typical booth widths or be cut to fit multiple sections of a dry spray booth. The unique pleated construction forces the paint laden air to change direction four times in its passage through the system, which increases particle capture as air travels through the filter layers. AF Exhaust Air Filters provide a high holding capacity system for all dry spray booths, so they keep operating longer between filter changes in industrial coating environments. AF filters outlast other dry filters three to five times, which reduces time spent swapping filters and handling used media.
The AF filter should be installed with eight corrugations to every foot of booth width, which gives a consistent pleat spacing that maintains airflow and holding capacity across the opening. To facilitate cutting and positioning, the filter is marked at every eighth corrugation, so installers can align cuts with these marks for repeatable sizing. During installation, one end of the filter is clipped in, then the filter is stretched across the frame, and the other end is clipped in, which creates an even pleat spread across the booth face. This procedure is described as an operation taking less than one minute, so technicians can change filters quickly and return the booth to service with minimal interruption to spraying.
The Binks AF Exhaust Air Filters provide a high holding capacity system for all dry spray booths, so they are used in booths that rely on dry media rather than water-wash systems. With a 3 foot by 30 foot size, the AF filter roll can be stretched across a booth frame to cover the exhaust plenum or trimmed into shorter panels to match sectional filter racks. The filter is marked at every eighth corrugation, which means each marked segment corresponds to the recommended eight corrugations per foot of booth width, helping installers cut lengths that match specific booth dimensions. Standard AF filters are appropriate for most industrial coatings, so they can run in booths spraying a variety of common coating types within industrial and woodworking environments. The AF filter is part of the spray booth exhaust system, so as overspray builds in the pleats, the booth continues to operate while the filter holds captured material.
The unique pleated construction forces paint laden air to change direction four times in its passage through the system, so each change of direction increases the chance that overspray particles are captured inside the filter instead of carried into the exhaust duct. This repeated directional shift, combined with the high holding capacity system for all dry spray booths, lets the filter load with more overspray before airflow becomes restricted, which supports longer spray cycles between filter changes. AF filters outlast other dry filters three to five times, so maintenance intervals are extended and time spent on filter handling decreases relative to ordinary dry filter media. The filter is collapsible, minimizing storage and disposal volumes, which helps shops handle both unused stock and used filters in a more compact form. The AF filter is also noted as having a Class 2 listing by Underwriters Laboratories, and this listing indicates a tested classification that is relevant when filters are used in spray booth exhaust systems. In addition, AF filters are AFTL certified, and this certification identifies the filter as tested within the AFTL program for use as an exhaust air filter. If any short pieces are left over after a cut, they can be attached to a new length either by a strip of masking tape or by stapling, so offcuts can be joined into usable sections across the booth frame.
The Binks AF filter with manufacturer part number 29-2186 has a size of 3 feet by 30 feet, so it spans long booth openings or can be cut into multiple panels.
The accordion-style pleated filter forces paint laden air to change direction four times through the pleats, so overspray particles contact more surface area and are captured more effectively.
AF Exhaust Air Filters outlast other dry filters three to five times, so spray booths run longer between filter changes under comparable overspray loading conditions.
The AF filter should be installed with eight corrugations to every foot of booth width, clipped at one end, stretched across the frame, then clipped at the other end.
The filter is marked at every eighth corrugation, so each mark matches the recommended eight corrugations per foot of booth width and guides cutting and positioning.
Short pieces left over from cutting can be attached to a new length by a strip of masking tape or by stapling, so offcuts become usable filter sections.
The Binks AF filter 3 feet by 30 feet provides an accordion-style pleated exhaust air filter that captures overspray efficiently in dry spray booths. Its high holding capacity and three to five times longer life than ordinary dry filters support extended spray operations. Installation with eight corrugations per foot of booth width, guided by marks on every eighth corrugation, gives repeatable fit across the booth frame. For spray finishing using most industrial coatings in dry spray booths, this AF Exhaust Air Filter offers a tested, marked, and collapsible filter format that supports shop workflow.
