15" x 2" Oval Washable Air Filter Element

• Red oiled cotton gauze media restores airflow, reusable after cleaning

• Oval shape seals properly against compatible air-cleaner lids

• 15" length, 8 3/8" width, 2" height for direct housing match

• Re-oil after cleaning to maintain filtration performance

Unlike a disposable paper element, this 15" oval filter uses red oiled cotton gauze media designed to be cleaned and reused rather than replaced at every service interval. It's built as a direct-fit replacement for compatible oval air-cleaner housings, filtering incoming air before it reaches the carburetor or intake while supporting long-term serviceability.

Dimensions are 15" length, 8 3/8" width, and 2" height — match these to your existing air-cleaner base and lid, since fitment is dimensional rather than vehicle-specific. The oval shape is built to seal properly against compatible lids and bases once installed.

Common in street performance and restoration builds using oval-style air-cleaner assemblies, this element is intended for regular cleaning and re-oiling rather than one-time replacement. Because it's an oiled media, it should be kept oiled — running it dry for extended periods reduces filtration efficiency.

Applications
Fits compatible 15" oval air-cleaner housings; used in street performance and restoration builds running oval-style air-cleaner assemblies.

Sizing
15" length, 8 3/8" width, 2" height.

Is this filter washable, or does it need to be replaced like a paper filter?
This filter uses red oiled cotton gauze media and is designed to be cleaned, re-oiled, and reused rather than replaced like a paper filter element.

Do I need to oil this filter after cleaning?
Yes. Re-oil the cotton gauze media after cleaning to maintain proper filtration performance. Running the filter dry for extended periods can reduce its effectiveness.

Will this fit the same housing as the 12" version?
No. This filter is 15 inches long, while the shorter version measures 12 inches. Both share the same 8⅜-inch width and 2-inch height, but the length must match your air cleaner housing.

How often should I clean and re-oil this filter?
Clean and re-oil the filter based on your driving conditions and maintenance schedule. Inspect it periodically and service it whenever dirt or debris buildup becomes noticeable.

Can I use a cleaner designed for paper filters on this element?
No. Use a cleaner specifically formulated for oiled cotton gauze filter media, as cleaners intended for paper filters are not suitable for this type of element.

How do I know if my housing needs the 15" length instead of 12"?
Measure your existing oval air cleaner base or the filter element you're replacing. If it measures approximately 15 inches long, this is the correct replacement size.
