  • Description

    Strenuous driving conditions such as idling in heavy traffic, driving on dirty, dusty roads and towing heavy loads can put a lot of strain on an engine. When operating in these environments, a greater-than-normal amount of contaminants can enter your vehicles engine and cause damage. FRAM Tough Guard® air filters are designed and constructed with advanced features to capture and hold more dirt, keeping engines cleaner in extreme driving conditions.

    • Heavier filter screen provides greater integrity and durability
    • Heavy duty construction to withstand extreme driving conditions
    • Media formulated for attracting and capturing smaller dirt and dust particles provides increased dirt-holding capacity
