AEM Intakes® 21-2049BF - Brute Force® DryFlow® Round Tapered Gray Air Filter (3.5" F x 6" B x 5.125" T x 8.938" H)

The AEM Intakes DryFlow Brute Force air filter exceeds the airflow requirements of “deep breathing” big engines under tough, dusty racing conditions. Brute Force DryFlow filters have a special filtering media that is tougher than the standard DryFlow filter media, to hold up under harsh environments and repeated cleanings. These filters will retain their shape and performance even after the most severe abuse. To prevent the filter from collapsing from flow demands, Brute Force filters also have a special lightweight, mineral-reinforced plastic cage that maintains the element’s structural integrity. The airflow capacity of Brute Force DryFlow filters far exceeds that of the stock engine’s requirements, so you have plenty of leeway for racing engine modifications without having to worry about exceeding the flow capacity of the filter. But airflow and durability haven’t been gained at the expense of filtration capability. Brute Force DryFlow filters have the same excellent filtration capabilities as standard DryFlow filters. They capture up to 99% of contaminants, extending the life of engine rings and seals. Finally, they are just as easy to clean as the regular Dryforce filters, and like all AEM Intakes Dryforce filters, require no oiling.

The AEM Intakes DryFlow Brute Force filter is constructed of a unique non-woven polyester-based filter media supported by a lightweight mineral-reinforced plastic cage. This filter media doesn’t require oil to filter and trap dirt and contaminants, and actually sheds dirt under engine vibration, unlike cotton-gauze, which holds onto contaminants until you clean the filter. The plastic cage helps the filter retain its shape, eliminating the chance of the filter collapsing from flow demands. The Brute Force filter is a favorite of racing teams competing in rough, dusty conditions. Cleaning is easy; simply tap the filter a few times to remove most of the dirt from the filter pleats, then spray the filter with AEM’s environmentally friendly, mild, all-purpose cleaner. Rinse the filter with clean water and allow to dry, or blow dry with compressed air. Best of all, the DryFlow Brute Force filter requires no oiling, so there’s never a chance of over-oiling. The DryFlow Brute Force filter is extremely durable and will withstand almost unlimited cleanings.
