Why TruFilter?
With today's equipment we are expecting a longer engine life, virtually all other parts on a vehicle have been re-engineered. From suspension to air filters. Air filters are now running at $300 dollars, why? because they have been designed to make your engine work easier, and provide you with superior protection. TRUFILTER has applied the same technology to a more critical engine component, "OIL FILTRATION". Oil filters have not changed in over 20 years, simple housing filled with cardboard! Why would anyone trust their investment of our vehicles and toys to a product that has not change along with all other parts?

Don't be fooled by large corporation marketing plans. a paper filter costs anywhere from $4.00 to $15.00 dollars retail. after you take out the 2-3 levels of marketing and distribution, how much do you actually costs to make the filter? maybe $1.00 to $3.00? How well do you want a product to work for $3.00 dollars?

Paper filters are made out of cardboard and by pass devices. Here are two top selling filters cut opened so you can see what's inside. Not a lot of protection with cardboard. How do you get oil to flow or filter through this dense cardboard? Check out the size of the by pass screen, this screen will let particles over 400 micron pass through. We were able to place a tip of a pencil through this screen.

PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

MOST EFFICIENT FILTRATION - Computer tested and race proven to be over 90% more efficient in removing 35 micron and smaller particles (most harmful to engines) than paper filters. Superior filtration means less wear on engine or fuel systems, providing extended life of equipment.
LARGEST FILTERING AREA - Deep pleated, duplex woven, 30 micron, T304 stainless steel filter media has the largest amount of filter area available and provides for ABSOLUTE filtering. Cleaner oil equals longer engine life, longer oil life.
RARE EARTH MAGNET -We added a rare earth magnet to our filter to eliminate even smaller particles from entering your engine.
MAXIMUM FLOW VOLUME - Our quad flow technology doubles the filtered oil flow allowing your motor to run more efficient. Increased flow and decreased turbulence, defends against foaming which causes oil breakdown. Less turbulence means cooler oil and longer oil life!
REUSABLE & CLEANABLE - Reuse over and over. Cleaning can be done with soap and water or in a solvent parts washer.
EASY INSTALLATION - No special tools needed. Simple spin-on replacement. Best fit and Viton (r) seals to prevent LEAKS! Convenient finger grips for a TRU grip.
REMOVABLE INSPECTION CANISTER - Easy spin off outer cup to allow for inspection & cleaning-anytime.
SUPERIOR QUALITY & WORKMANSHIP - 6061 T6 billet aluminum housing is designed, engineered and manufactured to last for life.
O RINGS - Viton ®, lifetime seals, the ultimate in durable sealing ability.

ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS
The environment is becoming all of our responsibility, today the fines for disposing waste oil and filters in the trash is growing. Today mechanics are required to drain, crush and place used oil filters in a sealed steel drum for proper disposal. These costs are being added to our oil changes. If you follow the 3,000-mile oil change you will change your oil about 5 times a year. That's 5 filters a year, in California there are approximated 2.5 million cars on the road every day. That equates to over 10 million filters a year thrown into the waste system, for just metro California alone. The paper or cardboard in these filters absorb the oil and when thrown away they leak oil for months thus creating a secondary problem; dirty oil run off. With TRUFILTER we eliminate all of that, no more waste, no more dirty oil in our water. With our superior filtration and partnered up with today's longer life oil, you will see longer oil change intervals thus saving you time and money. TRUFILTER's have been designed with our futures in mind. Make the move to a 21st century product and see the benefits start working for you and our next generations! TRUFILTER also is evolving with current trends and is supporting the BIO/VEGETABLE fuel markets. we now make filters for the collection of waste cooking oils to be filtered into a usable fuel for your engine.
