K20950C2 Air Filter

Product Description

Engineered to precise original equipment standards, the K20950C2 Cylindrical Air Filter safeguards Cummins powertrains from airborne particulate erosion. Featuring high-density media sealed with resilient polyurethane end caps and an outer protective wrap, it ensures reliable engine intake airflow, reduces cylinder liner wear, and maximizes combustion efficiency across heavy industrial applications.

Product Key Advantages

• 99% Dust Retention Rate: Achieves a 99% filtration efficiency rating, effectively isolating silica dust and airborne particles before entering combustion chambers.
• Elastic Polyurethane End Caps: Durable molded end seals prevent unfiltered air bypass under intense suction pressures and heavy vibration.
• High-Flow Media Structure: Optimized pleat spacing maximizes airflow capacity, ensuring steady intake volume to support engine horsepower.
• Severe-Duty Protective Layer: Outer synthetic wrap strengthens structural integrity, preventing pleat collapse in high-moisture or dusty environments.

Installation Guidelines & Important Precautions

Step-by-Step Installation Instructions:

• Shut Down Engine: Turn off the power unit completely and allow the air intake system to cool down before opening the housing.
• Clean Air Housing: Remove the old element and thoroughly wipe down the inner filter housing using a clean, damp cloth to eliminate loose debris.
• Inspect Seal Alignment: Slide the new K20950C2 filter into the air cleaner housing, pushing firmly to seat the elastomeric end cap flat against the mounting face.
• Secure Housing Cap: Reinstall the housing end cover, securing all latch clamps evenly to ensure an airtight seal against external dust.

Important Operational Precautions:

• Do Not Wash Media: Never attempt to wash or reuse paper-based media elements with water or solvent; replace with a fresh filter element.
• Inspect Duct Work: Check all rubber intake hoses and clamps for cracks or loose fittings prior to restarting the engine.
