- I bought a 3M B3 replacement cartridge last year from Star Marine for $110. This year I went back to order again and the price has increased to 287 bucks. Anyone getting a good deal on these anywhere. The cheapest I found was 179 plus shipping.
Thanks in advance.

You’re not going to get a 3M B3 Replacement cartridge anywhere for $20-30. Here is a post from a while back with several sources listed in the thread.
http://www.carriage-lifestyle-owners.co … f=63&t=399Posted: 5:21 AM – Jul 17, 2016I just purchased a 3m B2 cartirige from Amazon for $95.Posted: 7:34 PM – Mar 27, 2017I’ve been told the 3M B3 cartridges are no longer being manufactured. I found an entire install kit for $187, and that was about the only availability I found anywhere.I’ll try to find a source of supply for these (or a suitable replacement) and if successful I’ll post an update.
Posted: 8:26 AM – Mar 28, 2017https://www.consolidatedfoodservice.com … %20renewalHere is where I get mine. This is the large one. I have never had an issue of it being too heavy. This was a concern of mine when I used the first one 6 years ago.
Posted: 12:03 PM – Mar 28, 2017Moo,Can the larger capacity 3M filters be used in the same unit as the smaller? I bought a B2 if I’m not mistaken and it has 7500 gallon capacity. I see that the HF-60 says it’s good for 35,000 gallons and price is about it the same. Did you have to plumb a new unit?
Posted: 9:31 AM – Mar 30, 2017Here’s a good source for the 3M B3 filter replacement cartridge.
https://www.jamestowndistributors.com/u … m#QAHeaderPosted: 10:35 AM – Mar 30, 2017It works just fine with your existing unit.Posted: 12:26 PM – Mar 30, 2017That is good to know. Thank you!Posted: 12:12 PM – Apr 11, 2017I talked with 3M customer service (http://www.3mwater.com/customer-service/) and was told that the 3MFF101 filter, P/N 5613432 should be a snap in replacement for the B-2 filter, and there is no replacement for the B-3 cartridge. The capacity for the 3MFF101 is 6000 gallons and 2.5 GPM.I have no direct experience with trying to use these on the existing installation, so would suggest that anyone that tries this choose a supplier with a fair and reasonable return policy.
Posted: 9:08 AM – May 03, 2017I ordered a 3M HF60-S filter today from Amazon for 101.68 and free shipping. Same specs and micron as the B3 at half the price and 35000 gallons compared to 15000 gallons. Might be a couple inches taller but shouldn’t be a problem. I will post side by side pics when it arrives. If it works fine I will order a couple more at that price.
ChipPosted: 4:21 PM – May 05, 2017The new 3M HF60-S filter came in today. Same size as the expensive B3 filter I was using. I will install it this weekend and will order a couple more.Posted: 7:50 AM – Aug 22, 2017Falcon Hunter, it looks like the 3M HF60-S would be a good replacement for the B3 that I have now. Did it fit into the connection properly with no leaks?Posted: 7:53 AM – Aug 22, 2017Exact fit, no leaks and still going strong.
ChipPosted: 10:35 PM – Aug 22, 2017In case you need a winter plug.
