About AFE Filters
AFE filters
are constructed from 100% polyurethane which makes them very durable,
and
resistant to high temperatures and
chemicals. The construction of the pleats in the filter is deeper than
that of any other filter, this provides for an
increased
flow and prevents a greater amount
of dust from reaching your engine.
