FAQ: Ensure Smooth Sailing with Genuine Racor Filters
Do you have a blocked filter?
Opting for subpar media means facing early performance issues, with potential blockages occurring up to 70% sooner compared to Racor's superior Aquabloc® media. Racor's proprietary Aquabloc® media surpasses OEM fuel injection systems' standards for water removal and particle efficiency, ensuring optimal performance and longevity.
Do you have issues with bypassing?
Inferior filter construction can lead to internal bypass, permitting contaminated fuel and water to reach the engine. However, Racor employs top-notch materials and adheres to ISO/TS16949 production standards to eradicate bypass issues, ensuring only clean, quality fuel reaches your engine.
Do you have split or leaking seals?
Substandard seals can swell excessively, leading to leaks and premature deterioration. However, Racor implements high-quality automotive-grade gaskets and seals, including NBR, HNBR, and Viton®, ensuring compatibility with B20 bio-diesel and longevity throughout the service period.
Is dirty fuel reaching your engine?
Ineffective filters fail to safeguard the engine adequately. However, Racor replacement filters are engineered to perform precisely as intended for their designated application, ensuring optimal engine protection.
Do you have water reaching your fuel engine?
Most copycat filters fall short of meeting original equipment specifications. However, Racor maintains consistency by utilizing identical media and materials in both original equipment and replacement filters, ensuring performance to the highest standards.
Do you operate in cold conditions?
Low-quality pump diaphragms and seals can harden over time, leading to leaks. However, Racor employs premium materials specifically rated for operating temperatures ranging from -40°F to +255°F (-40°C to +124°C), ensuring durability and preventing potential leakage issues.
Have you experienced cracked head casting?
Inadequate head castings struggle to withstand severe environmental conditions and vibrations. However, Racor products undergo rigorous validation testing in extreme vibration and climatic conditions, ensuring their resilience and reliability in challenging environments.
Are you aware that some filters contain banned substances?
Certain copy filters may contain prohibited substances in their canister coating and plating. In contrast, Racor canisters are free from any banned substances and undergo thorough validation testing in extreme salt spray and climatic conditions, ensuring compliance and durability.
Have you experienced a cracked clear bowl?
Copycat filter bowls frequently utilize substandard materials prone to cracking when exposed to extreme temperatures, chemicals, or continuous vibrations. In contrast, Racor employs a unique and durable clear plastic bowl material characterized by high clarity, excellent UV protection, resistance to low and high temperatures, impact resistance, and imperviousness to all fuel types, ensuring longevity and reliability in diverse operating conditions.
Are the filter accessories you need available?
Unauthorized Racor copies often lack necessary accessories, and if they do include them, they likely haven't undergone testing. Conversely, Racor provides a comprehensive selection of filter accessories meticulously validated for integrity, EMC compatibility, and safety, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
