Abstract
A filter element is adapted to be located in a gas stream. The filter element comprises a substrate having a structure selected from the group consisting of scrimed needled felt, scrimless needled felt, woven fabric and mesh. The substrate comprises at least two different materials. A first one of the materials has a first melting temperature. A second one of the materials has a second melting temperature lower than the first melting temperature. An expanded polytetrafluoroethylene filtering membrane is adapted to be located upstream relative to the substrate in the gas stream and supported by the substrate. The substrate is attached to the filtering membrane by the second material of the substrate melted to engage the membrane and fix the membrane to the substrate.
