AMSOIL Air Filters

The Importance of Engine Filtration

Compared to microscopic dirt particles, your engine is a Goliath, roaring with heat and energy as it converts fuel into raw horsepower. But despite all this power, your engine is extremely vulnerable to the threat of microscopic engine dirt. In fact, if unchecked, this tiny menace will dramatically erode your engine's performance and can eventually cripple it beyond repair.

THE PROBLEMS

Engine Wear - Automotive experts agree that dirt is the number one cause of engine wear.  At first glance, it does not seem possible.  Engine dirt particles are so small-  mere dust specs-  and an engine is a highly sophisticated piece of machinery, crafted from the most durable metal alloys.  How can these minute particles bring down such a high-tech giant?  The answer lies in the fact that dirt particles are extremely abrasive.  They consist of razor-like flakes of road dust and airborne grit drawn  into the engine through the air intake, as well as manufacturing scarf and wear metal particles generated inside the engine.  These particles are carried by the oil into the precision clearances between bearings and other moving parts.  Once they work in between these parts, they grind and gouge surfaces, altering clearances, and generating more abrasive debris.  As this wear cycle continues, precision components become progressively sloppy and fatigued until they fail altogether.

Oil Degradation -  In addition to physically assaulting engine components, dirt and other contaminants work to degrade the oil that provides vital engine lubrication.  Sooty particles generated during combustion can be forced past piston rings and into the oil.  These particles act like tiny sponges, absorbing critical additives and shortening oil life.  Soot also wreaks havoc with viscosity by causing oil to thicken.  And in the presence of moisture, common by-products of combustion will react chemically to produce corrosive and rust-producing acids.

THE SOLUTION

AMSOIL Oil and Air Filters -  Filtration is the key to preventing costly repairs caused by engine dirt.  Filtration is simply a method of removing contaminants by trapping and holding them outside the system of oil circulation.  In order for filtration to be truly effective, however, it must be able to capture contaminants of all types and sizes.

AMSOIL Announces Absolute Efficiency Ea Air Filters (EaA) with Nanofiber Technology for Automotive and Light Truck Applications

AMSOIL INC. of Superior, WI announces the introduction of a new premium, high efficiency air filter utilizing nanofiber technology with a four year/100,000 mile service life guarantee and superior air flow. Positioning itself to be a world class leader in filtration, the AMSOIL Ea Filter is incomparable in both design and performance.

In lab testing Ea media with nanofibers removed 5 times more dust than the average cellulose filter and 50 times more dust than the average wet gauze media.  Ea media also has 3 times the airflow of cellulose filters and is equal to wet gauze filters at the very low 0.5 inches of restriction.  The proprietary Ea media held 15 times more dust than the average wet gauze type filter.  In short, AMSOIL Ea Filters offer superior performance in the three critical performance benchmarks of efficiency, flow and capacity.

Fast Fact:  A nanofiber is less than one micron in diameter.  A human hair is 80 microns.

Nanofiber Filter Media

  • Traps sub-micron size particles on the nanofiber surface
  • Prevents particles from lodging in the filter media depth
