This prefilter specifically Fits our 5 x 7 Inch Air Filters. JLT
Performance pre-filters are a great way to add style and protection to
your JLT cold air Intake system.
JLT
Pre-filters are designed to enhance the efficiency of any performance
or exposed Air Filter. The Pre-filter is constructed with a proprietary
polyester mesh with uniform micron openings, treated with an
hydrophobic water-repellent process. The mesh is UV resistant, filters
debris down to .005 inch, is shatter proof in freezing temperatures,
and resistant to heat up to 450 degrees.
The
material is puncture resistant and has elasticity characteristics
allowing the threads to return to the original position in the event
the threads have been impacted or shifted. The manufacturing process
incorporates a welded seam for strength, or reinforced industrial grade
thread to fill needle holes and to reduce potential failure points in
the material.
The
top seam utilizes specialized thread and cording (on larger pieces
w/tops) to reinforce durability of the top. Pre-filters are Designed to
deflect the damaging debris, which clogs Air Filters, compromising peak
air-flow and horsepower. The Pre-filter also extends the time between
servicing intervals reducing costs and increasing convenience for the
consumer.
Water
Repellent
The
JLT Pre-filter is an excellent solution to prevent water from entering
into the engine due to puddles or heavy rainstorms. A JLT
Pre-Filter is Designed to be Water Repellent and will reduce the risk
of water entering through an air Intake system. Although our
Pre-Filters are proven to be extremely effective in repelling water,
please keep in mind they are not water proof. If submerged, your Intake
can hold or pass water.
How
long will the water repellency last?
The
water repellency longevity is dependant upon driving conditions and the
number of times the filter is cleaned. Generally speaking, we recommend
changing the Pre-Filter every 6-12 months. However, a quick test can
determine if it is time to change your Pre-Filter. Simply take an
ordinary clean spray bottle filled with water and gently spray the
Pre-Filter. If the water beads off the Pre-Filter, your water
repellency is still working. If you see water enter through the
Pre-Filter, it is time to purchase a new Pre-Filter.
