MAHLE LX 1002 - Air Filter Car - Engine

Our filter media range consists of specially treated papers, fleeces, or multilayer filter media, depending on the specification and application.

MAHLE paper filters are made of high-quality cellulose fibres impregnated with special resins for use in air, fuel, oil, and hydraulic filters.

Plastic fibers provide the basic material for fleeces—the finer the fiber, the better the retention. The fleeces are applied in layers, whereby the fineness of the fibers and the fleece density increase from the dirty to the clean side. This funnel effect allows retention efficiencies of up to 99.9% with low flow resistance.

Multilayer filter media are predominantly installed in modern diesel fuel injection systems. Compared with conventional paper filters, the combination of fleece and paper has an absorption capacity that is up to 40% higher.
