Many manufacturers use a high pressure injection process to mold their frames which can result in noticeable black outlines along the edge of the filter. This leakage can lead to unwanted air restriction and reduced overall performance. Made in the USA using a proprietary 4-step low pressure injection molding process, our filters never have any issues with seepage onto the filtering media which maximizes the filtering surface.

Our product features a deep pleated double-layered woven cotton filtration surface that allows for up to 25% more air to move through while trapping particulate matter as small as 5 microns. The stainless steel mesh that encases the cotton provides a strong protective barrier to withstand even the toughest conditions.
