Can you help me determine what these are? They look to me like some sort of water/sediment filter but I’m not sure. They each measure 10" long, 2 1/2 in diameter with a 1" hole in each end (which makes me think they are plumbing related).

Culligan water filter. Little different from our size. I have sold those for $10 plus shipping.

That’s what they look like to me. Although without any paperwork with them, you won’t know what they are to filter out. Check the ends for a brand name or a number and Google search, you might get lucky.
Best of luck to you with them.
[URL removed] Why not take them to a hardware store and compare them to the water filters on the shelf. That way you might figure out exactly what they are to filter, can’t tell from pictures, need to feel or see the “fabric” with one’s eyes to figure that out. Would not know about automotive use, I have a regular car.

Thanks JohnGermaine for your suggestion. There are no marks anywhere on them. My other thought would be maybe some sort of diesel filter.

They look like my Culligan sediment filter…the system is placed before the Culligan water system. You might run by a Culligan dealer and ask them! ;)

Many use water filters just to be safe from germs and viruses which cause diseases like Cholera, Typhoid, Dysentery, etc. These are terrible diseases but can easily be cured with modern day antibiotics. Also just boiling the water will make sure that water is free from such germs. As I know most of them use [URL removed]
