This is a high-efficiency engine air filter designed to protect the internal components of your Caterpillar engine from airborne contaminants. It is manufactured to meet stringent filtration standards, ensuring it captures finer particles than a worn or damaged filter. A clogged or torn filter can lead to reduced engine power, increased fuel consumption, and potential internal engine damage from abrasive particles.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Never run an engine without a filter — even briefly causes abrasive damage. Pre-fill fuel filters with clean fuel before fitting to reduce prime time. Replace O-rings on filter housings every second service. Record change dates on filter housing.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
Initial signs of a clogged air filter include a noticeable decrease in engine power and a slight increase in exhaust smoke. If left unaddressed, the engine will continue to lose performance, fuel efficiency will drop significantly, and the risk of premature wear on internal engine parts increases. Ultimately, severe restriction can lead to engine misfires and potential operational shutdown.
Before installing the new filter, ensure the filter housing is completely clean to prevent any debris from bypassing the seal. Do not overtighten the housing cover, as this can distort the seal and compromise filtration.
Inspect the air intake system for any signs of leaks or damage, and check the pre-cleaner if equipped.
