Laboratory airflow tests show Donaldson filters increase horsepower by increasing airflow compared to aftermarket STC'ed filters. Manufactured using synthetic media, Donaldson filters have deeper pleats and have more media area to provide superior engine protection and improve performance. Other benefits include:
- Designed for 500 flight hours, 3-years of service or 5 cleanings - whichever comes first
- Designed to OEM and FAA-PMA manufacturer specifications
- Meet or exceed FAA fire safety regulation per FAR 25.852 and FAR 23.1107 induction system filters
- Intake filters for over 75 models for Cessna, Beech, Piper, Mooney and others
- Easy installation and maintenance, no removable parts or messy oil
