AMSOIL Ea Air Filters
represent a major breakthrough in filtration
technology. The revolutionary nanofiber
technology used in AMSOIL Ea Filters captures
more dirt, holds more dirt and allows better
air flow than conventional air filters. AMSOIL
Ea Filters improve engine performance and help
engines last longer.
Absolute
Efficiency
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are the most efficient
filters available to the car/light truck
market. Ea Air Filters’ synthetic nanofiber
media removes 5 times more dust than
traditional cellulose filter media alone and 50
times more dust than wet gauze filter media.
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters have a service life of
100,000 miles or four years, whichever comes
first.
Better Air Flow
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters allow more airflow than
filters that use cellulose media alone.
Cellulose fibers are larger than nanofibers,
and have larger spaces between the fibers,
causing contaminants to load in the depth of
the media and plug the airflow path, which
results in higher restriction and less
capacity. The synthetic nanofibers in EaA
Filter media have submicron diameters and small
interfiber spaces, which result in more
contaminants being captured on the surface of
the media and lower restriction.
More
Capacity
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters hold up to two and a half
times more contaminants than cellulose air
filters. Since the nanofibers in the media are
so small there are more pores per square inch,
allowing for higher dirt-holding capacity and
lower pressure drop when compared to cellulose
filter media alone. Thinner media fibers
produce more uniform pore size distribution,
improving the filter’s overall quality and
ability to capture and retain particles.
Testing shows that Ea Air Filters hold 15 times
more contaminants than a wet gauze type
filter.
Cleanable - Longer Life
When cleaned according to AMSOIL specifications
and used in normal service, AMSOIL Ea Air
Filters are guaranteed for 100,000 miles or
four years, whichever comes first. EaA Filters
remain effective for 25,000 miles or one year
before requiring cleaning. This coincides with
the AMSOIL 25,000-mile/one-year motor oil drain
interval, adding even more convenience for
motorists by consolidating routine maintenance.

Applications
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters provide superior air
filtration for vehicles in the auto/light truck
market.
Cleaning
EaA filters should be cleaned every year or
25,000 miles, whichever comes first. Carefully
remove the filter from the housing. Clean the
housing with a shop towel, being careful not to
knock contaminants into the air inlet. Filters
can be cleaned by carefully vacuuming the
filter media on the dirty side, or by holding
the filter with one hand and carefully blowing
the filter media at a 45 degree angle on the
clean side using low-pressure shop air (15-20
lbs. psi).
Service Life
AMSOIL Ea Air Filters are guaranteed for four
years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.
The guarantee applies only if the filter has
been serviced according to AMSOIL
recommendations. In off-road, frequently dusty
or other severe duty applications, clean and
change more often as determined by operating
conditions or as indicated by restriction
gauge.
AMSOIL Warranty
AMSOIL warrants that its filtration products
are fit for use according to AMSOIL’s
recommendations and warrants its products to be
free of defective materials, design and
workmanship.
