Liquid Filter Design Features Heavy-duty Design OVERVIEW Filter Media Curing is the process that adds strength to the filter media and ensures that filter bypass does not occur. Donaldson cures filter media while it is in a flat, pleated state to ensure consistent and even curing. Most competitive brands cure the media after the filter is assembled – leading to poorly cured media in a weakened condition. Uncured media has very low strength and can rupture easily when saturated with oil. Donaldson cures its filter media (on left) before the filter is assembled, as shown by the consistent color...
