Engine filter foams
When people discuss engine performance they usually refer to valves and horsepower. But, regardless of the power capacity, engines can only work to their full capability if the motor is kept clean and the engine's environment is maintained at an optimum level, and, this is where technically advanced engine filter foams play an essential, albeit slightly less glamorous, role.
As the leading engineering-biased foam manufacturer and converter in the UK, Technical Foam Services produces an extensive range of permanent and replaceable engine filter foams in a wide range of pore sizes, shapes and densities, for the automotive, rail and bus industries, spanning bus compressors to high performance sports cars.
Precision and performance
Manufactured in reticulated polyurethane (PU) foam with a high tensile strength and precise and homogenous cell size, our engine filter products provide a superior level of dust absorption and airflow compared with other media such as paper and gauze.
As a result Technical Foam Services' engine filter foams are recognised by the leading filter manufacturers such as Piper Cross (www.pipercross.com and Europe's largest distributor of filters for the bus, coach, truck, rail, and construction industries Filtration Control (www.filtrationcontrol.com), for providing unrivalled precision filtration foams and long-lasting performance across a spectrum of applications from trains to motorbikes.
The perfect blend of properties
In addition to offering superior levels of durability and precision performance, as a world-class producer of the highest quality foams, our engine filter goods are also:
- Oil resistant
- Fire retardant to meet FMVSS302 and UL94 standards
- Resistant to temperature and thermal oxidation
- Chemical and contaminant resistant
- UV and light resistant
- Resistant to ageing
- Weldable
We also supply impregnated carbon foams to filter odours and gases where required.
A wide selection
In addition to providing improved performance properties, engine filter foams also offer a cost effective alternative to disposable paper filters as they can be washed and re-used again and again.
We also offer the widest choice of densities, pore sizes and colours - including black, white, red, blue and yellow - and can supply engine filter foams in a wide array of shapes and sizes such as die-cut, egg-box profiled, sewn forms and ultrasonically welded cylinders.
Custom solutions
While all of our engine filters offer a robust and effective solution in a wide range of applications, this is often where the similarities end because at Technical Foam Services we do not believe in merely supplying "standard" products.
As the recognised leader in engineering-biased foam conversion and 100% dedicated to our customers, our real strength lies in our ability to supply bespoke, custom engine filters to meet the precise and exacting demands of each and every one of our clients.
With an expert team of in-house engineers we can produce bespoke tooling to manufacture custom engine filter foams to meet your precise specifications. We can also manufacture prototypes and carry out testing before beginning full-scale manufacturing, thus providing a truly comprehensive and bespoke service to clients around the world.
