RAILROAD FILTER INFORMATION
Filtration Systems' patented "Swirl Flow1"" technology is a
breakthrough in depth filter design, providing exceptionally long life, high
efficiency, and low restriction to flow.
Our high-flow railroad lube filters have been used for years in demanding
conditions, often over mountainous terrain. They consistently last a minimum
of 3 months, and often 1/2 year, between filter change-outs.
We have manufactured hundreds of thousands of railroad lube elements,
protecting locomotive engines worldwide, with the best value in the industry

| Wood absorbs water and acids (extending lube oil drain intervals) and improves the filter's flow characteristics. Our wood is grown and processed here in Wisconsin, for good cost control. |
SWIRL FLOW
With a patented "Swirl Flow"
depth elements are a dramatic break-through in filter technology. By
alternating layers of low and high density media, and balancing the ratio of
circumferential to radial flow, the media layers progressively load with
dirt, like peeling an onion. This results in an incredibly long life
filter, designed for reliability and performance at a low cost.
