Agri Health Milk Filter Socks for Dairy Milking
Description
Agri Health Milk Filter Socks — Disposable Sock Filters for Dairy Milking
Agri Health Milk Filter Socks are single-use, sock-shaped milk filters that strain milk as it passes from the milking cluster or line into the bulk tank, churn or receiving vessel. They are designed for dairy farms, smallholdings, goat and sheep dairies and house-cow keepers who need a clean, low-fuss filter for every milking.
The sock fits into an in-line filter housing or over the outlet of the receiving vessel, catching stray sediment and debris during milking. Afterwards the used sock is simply removed and discarded, so there is nothing to wash or sterilise before the next session. Best for anyone milking daily who wants a consistent, repeatable hygiene routine without reusable filters to maintain.

How to Use
- Check the filter housing or tube on your milking plant is clean and dry before you start.
- Take a fresh sock from the pack with clean hands.
- Slide the sock into the in-line housing or over the outlet of the receiving vessel so it sits evenly, with no folds or twists.
- Secure the housing and milk as normal, keeping an eye on flow through the filter.
- At the end of milking, remove the used sock and discard it — do not attempt to rinse and reuse.
- Clean the housing as part of your usual plant wash and fit a new sock before the next milking.
FAQ
What are milk filter socks used for?
They are fitted into a milking system to strain milk as it flows to the bulk tank or churn, catching stray sediment and debris so the collected milk is cleaner.
Can milk filter socks be washed and reused?
No. They are designed for single use. Fit a fresh sock for each milking and discard the used one afterwards.
How do I know which size I need?
Filter housings and tube diameters vary between milking plants. Measure the length and internal diameter your housing takes, and match it before ordering — a sock that is too narrow will not seat correctly and one that is too short may pull free.
Are they suitable for goat and sheep milking?
Yes, provided the sock size matches your filter housing. They are used across cow, goat and sheep dairy set-ups, from single house cows to larger parlours.
How should I store unused filter socks?
Keep them in their packaging in a clean, dry place away from chemicals, feed and direct sunlight so they remain hygienic until use.
How many socks will I get through?
One per milking session as a rule, so twice-daily milking uses two a day. Many dairies keep a spare box in the parlour so a clean sock is always to hand.
