Abstract
A filter suitable for press fitting into an assembly for inline filtration is disclosed. The filter includes a base, filtration material supported on the base, and a metal collar surrounding at least a portion of the base with a portion of the metal collar embedded in the base. The leading edge of the collar and anchor tabs on the distal end of the collar are embedded in the base and thus secure the collar to the base. The collar also has a rounded entry corner which provides a smooth entry into the press fit hole when the filter is pressed into place.
