DIFFERENT MEANS BETTER WHEN IT COMES TO CAT® FILTERS

Aren't all filters the same? 30 years back, we asked the same question. Today, the answer's clear. From lab tests to customer results to simply cutting one open, it's easy to see how Cat® filters are different. Your Cat equipment gets better protection and performance. That means less repair work, more uptime and more money for your operation.

The Difference

"IF YOU HAVE A MACHINE EQUIPPED WITH A NO NAME FILTER, THE MAINTENANCE INTERVALS ARE SHORTER COMPARED TO A CAT FILTER."


- Petr Schmidt, Foreman, P-D Group Germany

The Proof

"WE'VE GOT EXTENDED RUN TIMES ON EVERYTHING. MACHINES THAT ARE COMING DUE BY THE BOOK FOR A TURBO REPLACEMENT IN 6,000 HOURS... WE'RE GETTING 8,000 HOURS OUT OF OUR SAMPLING LOGS."


- Chris Johnson, Equipment Manager, Kaw Valley Companies

of
The Design

"THE MEDIA IS VERY IMPORTANT, THE ROVING THAT HOLDS THE PLATES TOGETHER WITH THE ACRYLIC BASE... THE FILTER IS GOING TO SEE A LOT OF PRESSURE... AND WHEN YOU HAVE A COLD START, IF THAT FILTER DOESN'T HOLD ENOUGH PRESSURE, IT'S GOING TO COLLAPSE AND IT'S GOING TO BYPASS EVERYTHING THROUGH THE SYSTEM."


- Daniel Giurgea, Reliability Engineer, Cat filters

of
The Decision

"I BELIEVE (CAT FILTERS) BUY ME HOURS OF ACTUAL WORKING TIME, VERSUS THE COMPETITORS THAT MIGHT BE CHEAPER, BUT I'M NOT GOING TO GET THE HOURS. SO, IN THE LONG RUN I DON'T GET THE PERFORMANCE, I DON'T GET THE PRODUCTIVITY OUT IN THE FIELD."


- Jeff Gatton, Owner, JAG Excavating Inc.
