While aftermarket filters might be cheaper upfront, using genuine Cummins filters (like Fleetguard, which is part of Cummins) is a smart investment for several reasons:

• 
  

  Precise Engineering: Cummins filters are designed and tested to meet the exact specifications and performance requirements of your engine. The filter media’s micron rating (its ability to trap tiny particles) is engineered for optimal protection and flow.

  
  


• 
  

  Guaranteed Quality: Aftermarket filters can vary wildly in quality. Some may use inferior media that can tear, collapse, or simply not filter effectively, potentially leading to costly engine damage. Genuine filters guarantee consistent, high-quality construction.

  
  


• 
  

  Warranty Protection: Using non-genuine filters can sometimes void aspects of your engine’s warranty if a failure is traced back to a faulty filter. Sticking with Cummins parts ensures your warranty remains intact.
