The Harbor Freight Tools 61317 is a 70-gallon 2 HP Industrial Dust Collector. According to the product specifications on the Harbor Freight website, this dust collector comes with a 5-micron filter bag that is designed to capture dust and debris.
However, if you are looking for a finer filtration system to capture smaller particles, you may want to consider upgrading to a 1-micron or 0.5-micron filter. Harbor Freight offers an optional upgrade kit (item number 61819) that includes a 1-micron filter bag and a plastic bag for easy dust disposal.
Alternatively, there are many aftermarket filters available from other manufacturers that are compatible with the Harbor Freight 61317 dust collector. Be sure to check the specifications of the filter to ensure it is the correct size and type for your particular dust collector model.
It is important to regularly clean or replace your dust collector filter to ensure it is functioning properly and maintaining good air quality in your workspace.
