Not all filters are identical. Although some filters can be less expensive, it’s important to know that they also offer considerably less protection. It wouldn’t make sense to expose today’s engines and other sophisticated component systems to this kind of risk.

Only Caterpillar filters have unique design features such as:

• One-piece moulded end caps to prevent leaks 
• Acrylic beads keep the spacing between pleats
• Spiral roving stabilizes the pleats
• Non-metallic central tubes to protect the engine

Due to their superior quality, Caterpillar filters ensure maximum protection for your engines, power trains and hydraulics. Although other filter brands can adapt, Cat filters offer the superior quality and protection necessary to maximize you engine and other component systems’ life.
