A filter element for straining liquid formed of a filter material in a convoluted form including two portions, one portion being a planar portion and the other portion being a corrugated portion having a plurality of elevated areas. The filter material is foled in half in the longitudinal center and wound in convolutions so that a series of letters V are formed on a transverse cross-sectional surface thereof. The pitch of the elevated areas is smaller in the central portion of the convoluted filter element corresponding to the end of the filter material at which winding is started and larger in the outer peripheral portion thereof.
