Abstract
There is disclosed an axially folded tubular filter element for the filtration of fluids. The ends of the radially extending folds are in abutment at the internal folds with a support core and in abutment at the externally facing folds internally with an outer support grid. The support has a plurality of perforations. The ends of the tubular filter element are enclosed by a cap which encloses the ends of the tubular filter element in a sealing manner. The outside of the support core which supports the internally facing fold edges has a series of outwardly extending corrugated sections with rounded corrugated outwardly extending ridges, and the said perforations are located in the valleys of the corrugations. The corrugated structure extends in a longitudinal direction, is relatively flat and runs in a circumferential direction. A drainage pathway is also supplied along the outer surface of the support core.
