Hi BR
I'm looking for a fluid filter that you usually find on the end of the tubing on a smoke machine that plunges into the bottle.
The smoke machine I have is pretty generic and isn't mine but I'm looking to source one so that dirt doesn't get into the unit.

Does anyone know what it's actually called and where could I find one?

Cheers!

The filter on the end is also often used to keep the tube at the bottom of the fluid tank. It's usually just an aquarium airstone, although a compressed metal airline filter might be a better option to avoid any of the stones grit contaminating the line.
