Optimum water separation Fuel filters
Hengst fuel filters remove particles of rust and dust, tank residues, water and other substances that can adversely affect the operation of modern fuel injection systems. Automakers specify filters in OE quality and using state-or-the-art filter material such as Meltblown-Media, for example.
Trouble-free engine operation and protection against wear and corrosion are guaranteed by the optimum reliability of our fuel filter throughout the entire service interval.
Maximum separation Oil filters
Hengst filters effectively clean the circulating oil of dust, metal particles, soot particles and miscellaneous contaminants. Only clean oil reaches the lubrication and bearing points. Hengst oil filters are also characterized by resistance to high temperatures extreme mechanical long-term stability against sudden changes in pressure and resistance to aggressive components in the oil, thereby fully satisfying the ever-evolving demands for use in advanced modern engines. Only the latest generation of filter media are used, with added synthetic fibers, impregnation and high filtration grades with a large dirt-holding capacity. Additional characteristics are high-quality seals and gaskets as well as a secure and reliable connection between the seal, end cap and filter paper.
High-quality Hengst oil filters guarantee a supply of clean oil under all operating conditions, thereby creating the basic conditions for optimum engine performance and operational reliability with longer and longer service intervals.
Precision fit Air filters
Hengst air filters remove particles of dust, dirt and soot from the intake air and thereby prevent accelerated engine wear and damage to sensitive electronic components. They contain state-of-the-art filter media that have been specially impregnated to resist heat and humidity. These top-of-the-line products combine OE quality, precise fit and stability.
When they are replaced at the specified intervals, these air filters guarantee optimum control of the fuel-air mixture and thus optimum combustion. The advantages are apparent. Engine performance is improved, engine life is extended and the total cost of ownership can be reduced by eliminating the need for expensive repairs.
A clear view and clean windows Cabin air filters
Hengst cabin air filters remove exhaust gases, dust, soot and pollen from the intake air and thereby protect the health of the driver and passengers - an important function, especially for persons with allergies or asthma and for children. The cabin air filters also protect the heating and air conditioning system from pollution, guarantee a clear view and thus contribute to safer driving. High-performance cabin air filters are therefore standard equipment on almost all new vehicle models. Hengst uses only filter media that meet the requirements of leading automakers and the highest standards in terms of health, safety and driving comfort.
The filter insert should be replaced at least every 15,000 km or once a year. To maintain optimum filtering action, Hengst recommends replacing the filter twice a year, in the spring and fall.
