Fully
re-useable foam air filters
If
you want to improve engine performance and economy, reduce
engine wear and increase engine life then you need a Unifilter
from 4WD Systems.
Unifilter
uses an open cell foam which is 3-5% product and 95-97%
void space. This open cell structure allows air to be pulled
through the foam with 40-60% less effort than conventional
paper filters. Sticky filter oil (Filter Fix) which
is applied to the filter foam catches all dust particles
above 4 or 5 micron. Standard paper filters allow particles
of 35 microns or smaller to pass into the motor.
The advantage does not finish there - Unifilter
elements are re-useable - at around the normal life of a
paper cleaner, Unifilter
elements can be washed out with minerals turpemntine, re-oiled
with "Filter Fix"
and returned to the vehicle. Economically and environmentally
- a great concept!
