Overview
We hold ourselves to a higher standard. All of our fuel filters help prevent premature injector and pump wear by delivering cleaner fuel to your engines. Our fuel filters meet or exceed your application requirements.
Features
- Heavy-duty components – like baffle plates, seams, can housings, liners and springs – all contribute to creating filters that are built to last and built to perform
Benefits
- Cost effective fuel filtration doesn't mean having to cut corners
- We sweat the little things (so you don't have to)
- We use top quality components to make top quality filters – whether premium or standard
Applications
- We offer a full range of fuel filters for popular heavy-duty on- and off-road engines
- We have assembly and filter systems that you can build into – or add onto – your equipment. We also offer a broad range of replacement filter coverage to fit systems built by other manufacturers
- We offer filter options to fit all of the common primary and secondary systems used on equipment today – including spin-ons, fuel-filter-water-separators, DAVCO-type cartridges and metal or metal-free cartridges
Available Media Types
- Cellulose – Engine fuel media is most commonly a pleated cellulose base material. It's a cost effective media that effectively meets application efficiency and capacity requirements.
- Treated cellulose (for fuel-filter-water-separators FFWS) – Treating cellulose with a silicone based material allows for effective water separation. Typically, this media is used on the suction side of the fuel system to remove harmful water and coarse particulate contaminant.
- Our Exclusive Synteq™ for use in FFWS – uses both cellulose and a meltblown synthetic layer to achieve higher levels of fuel filtration performance. This double-layer media increases particulate holding capacity (longer filter life) and is a high-performance water separator. It offers high efficiency emulsified water separation and can be used on both the suction and pressure sides of fuel systems.

Spin-On Filters
- Unscrew and remove the old filter and gasket. Properly dispose of the used filter according to local regulations.
- Wipe filter head with a clean cloth
- DO NOT pre-fill with fuel unless otherwise specified
- Apply a thin film of clean motor oil to the gasket
- Align threads; spin filter on until gasket contact
- Follow icons on filter to tighten to the appropriate amount
- Start engine and check for leaks
Spin-On Fuel Filter Water Separator (FFWS)
- Disconnect Water-In-Fuel (WIF) sensor if present – reconnect after servicing
- Unscrew and remove the old filter and gasket. Properly dispose of the used filter according to local regulations.
- Wipe filter head with a clean cloth
- Fill with fuel on the dirty side of the filter – per engine manufacturer recommendations
- Apply a thin film of clean motor oil to the gasket
- Align threads; spin filter on until gasket contact
- Follow icons on filter to tighten to the appropriate amount
- Replace water collection bowl gasket if applicable
- Prime fuel system per manufacturer instructions
- Start engine and check for leaks
- Drain water daily
Davco®-Type Cartridge
- Remove vent cap and seal
- Drain fuel
- Remove collar, cover and seal
- Remove cartridge and old grommet. Properly dispose of the used filter according to local regulations.
- Clean collar, cover and threads
- Check new grommet and install cartridge
- Install seal, cover and hand-tighten collar
- Fill cover with fuel
- Fit new vent seal and cap and hand-tighten
- Start and warm up engine; increase RPM for one minute
- Slowly open vent cap until fuel rises 25mm / 1 in. above collar; close vent
Metal-Free Cartridge
- Loosen cap slowly; fuel will drain from housing
- Remove cap, cartridge and gasket (if present)
- Remove cartridge and old O-Ring from cap. Properly dispose of the used filter according to local regulations.
